  • Archbishop Says Berlin Wall Was a Good Friday in German History
    Archbishop says Berlin Wall was a Good Friday in German history BERLIN (CNS) — Catholics and Protestants gathered Aug. 13 to remember the day in 1961 when their city was divided, becoming a symbol of the Cold War. Catholic Archbishop Heiner Koch joined his Protestant counterpart, Bishop Christian Stäblein, for an ecumenical prayer service in the Chapel of Reconciliation, on the spot where part of the wall was built. Today, a few wall remnants still remain in a remembrance garden. Archbishop Koch reminded those gathered in the small chapel that without Good Friday, there would not have been a Resurrection on Easter. “Today we remember one of the Good Fridays in the history of Berlin and Germany. We have gathered at one of the many Golgotha mounds in our city and our country, directly at a monument that for many of us was a symbol of bondage and confinement, and which reminds us today of the preciousness of freedom,” he said. Archbishop Koch remembered how, as a young boy, he was on vacation with his parents in Italy when the wall went up. He recalled the anger and powerlessness of his parents and other adults as they watched, in disbelief, the images on television. It was his mother’s birthday, but no one was celebrating. Early on that Sunday morning in 1961, the Soviet sector border was sealed off when more than 10,000 East German security forces started to tear up the pavement in Berlin; they erected barricades and barbed wire fences. A few days later, the concrete slabs that would become the wall started to go up.

  • The Victims at the Berlin Wall, 1961-1989 by Hans-Hermann Hertle/Maria Nooke August 2011
    Special CWIHP Research Report The Victims at the Berlin Wall, 1961-1989 By Hans-Hermann Hertle/Maria Nooke August 2011 Forty-four years after the Berlin Wall was built and 15 years after the East German archives were opened, reliable data on the number of people killed at the Wall were still lacking. Depending on the sources, purpose, and date of the studies, the figures varied between 78 (Central Registry of State Judicial Administrations in Salzgitter), 86 (Berlin Public Prosecution Service), 92 (Berlin Police President), 122 (Central Investigation Office for Government and Unification Criminality), and more than 200 deaths (Working Group 13 August). The names of many of the victims, their biographies and the circumstances in which they died were widely unknown.1 This special CWIHP report summarizes the findings of a research project by the Center for Research on Contemporary History Potsdam and the Berlin Wall Memorial Site and Documentation Center which sought to establish the number and identities of the individuals who died at the Berlin Wall between 1961 and 1989 and to document their lives and deaths through historical and biographical research.2 Definition In order to provide reliable figures, the project had to begin by developing clear criteria and a definition of what individuals are to be considered victims at the Berlin Wall. We regard the “provable causal and spatial connection of a death with an attempted escape or a direct or indirect cause or lack of action by the ‘border organs’ in the border territory” as the critical factor. In simpler terms: the criteria are either an attempted escape or a temporal and spatial link between the death and the border regime.

  • UNESCO Heritage Sites and Cultural Spaces in Ethnographic Regions of ESTONIA - Setomaa, Kihnu Island, LATVIA - Suiti Land, Livonian Coast, and SOUTH COAST of FINLAND
    UNESCO HERITAGE SITES AND CULTURAL SPACES IN Ethnographic Regions of ESTONIA - Setomaa, Kihnu Island, LATVIA - Suiti Land, Livonian Coast, and SOUTH COAST OF FINLAND PROGRAMMES FOR TOURISTS The north-eastern shores of Baltic Sea washes three states – Finland, Estonia and Latvia. For centuries these countries have shared common cultural landscape, exchanged and mutually enriched one another’s culture. The way of life in this region characterized by shared cultural context, values and natural resources has developed traditions specific to each nation yet keeping common Nordic-Baltic spirit in every cultural expression. For this reason it is worthwhile taking a closer look into the region finding out what heritage values it has to offer, and which of them are internationally recognized by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation) an organisation which works to promote and safeguard the heritage of humanity. 1 2 What is UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage? One of the most beautiful UNESCO developed lists of this kind is devoted to promotion of intangible cultural heritage. With the term “intangible cultural heritage”, we understand different forms of oral expressions, languages and dialects, social practices, festive events, performing arts and rituals, traditional knowledge and Destination craftsmanship, including instruments and objects associated with them, as well as area – Latvia, cultural spaces.

  • After the Berlin Wall Hope M
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-04931-4 — After the Berlin Wall Hope M. Harrison Frontmatter More Information AFTER THE BERLIN WALL The history and meaning of the Berlin Wall remain controversial, even three decades after its fall. Drawing on an extensive range of archival sources and interviews, this book profiles key memory activists who have fought to commemorate the history of the Berlin Wall and examines their role in the creation of a new German national narrative. With victims, perpetrators, and heroes, the Berlin Wall has joined the Holocaust as an essential part of German collective memory. Key Wall anniversaries have become signposts marking German views of the past, its relevance to the present, and the complicated project of defining German national iden- tity. Considering multiple German approaches to remembering the Wall via memorials, trials, public ceremonies, films, and music, this revelatory work also traces how global memory of the Wall has impacted German memory policy. It depicts the power and fragility of state-backed memory projects, and the potential of such projects to reconcile or divide. hope m. harrison is Associate Professor of History and International Affairs at the George Washington University.

  • Green Belt Goes Baltic: Closing the Gap Between Central Europe and Fennoscandia
    Green Belt goes Baltic: Closing the Gap between Central Europe and Fennoscandia Young people in the southern and eastern Baltic Sea countries today can hardly understand why only two decades ago people were allowed to visit only designated beaches, why gigantic spot lights lit the beaches at night, why the Latvian shoreline was literally combed every day or why peninsulas were turned into mine fi elds in Germany. Since those times, these coasts have experienced a tremendous boom in building and development – largely not following the rules of sustainable development. An increasing demand for space for uses such as tourism, harbour and marina development, sand extraction, and power constructions confl icts seriously with nature conservation eff orts. At the same time, European Directives such as NATURA 2000, the Water Framework Directive, the recommendations for and evaluation of integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) and the Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Directive have already or will trigger a number of national legal acts which can support future conservation of the Baltic Sea coast. However, these top-down activities need to be accompanied by bottom-up initiatives for full implementation in society. Th is is where the Baltic Green Belt sets in.

Tired of the poor conditions in the German Democratic Republic and hoping to find better in West Germany, they intended to climb the Berlin Wall that separated East and West Berlin using a ladder. A newspaper account states that despite both verbal warnings and warning shots, both young men continued to try and climb the wall until the border guards opened fire directly at them.

La Grande Guerra si è conclusa, ma i trattati per la pace non diminuiscono le disparità economiche preesistenti tra gli Stati. La storiografia dell’epoca riconosce che proprio in quei patti vi è la genesi del secondo conflitto mondiale. Nonostante da più parti si invochi la pace e si confidi nelle capacità diplomatiche per risolvere le crisi tra gli stati, sul territorio europeo tutte le nazioni rafforzano e completano i propri sistemi difensivi di confine. Inoltre, coscienti che l’arma aerea, già usata durante il primo conflitto, potrebbe trasformare le città in campi di battaglia, si impongono provvedimenti per la protezione collettiva della popolazione civile delle grandi città e dei centri vitali. La guerra chimica è definita “arte demoniaca dei veleni sottili e silenziosi” (Djalma Juretigh 1932).
