  • The Rhetorical Crisis of the Fall of the Berlin Wall

    The Rhetorical Crisis of the Fall of the Berlin Wall

    THE RHETORICAL CRISIS OF THE FALL OF THE BERLIN WALL: FORGOTTEN NARRATIVES AND POLITICAL DIRECTIONS A Dissertation by MARCO EHRL Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Nathan Crick Committee Members, Alan Kluver William T. Coombs Gabriela Thornton Head of Department, J. Kevin Barge August 2018 Major Subject: Communication Copyright 2018 Marco Ehrl ABSTRACT The accidental opening of the Berlin Wall on November 9th, 1989, dismantled the political narratives of the East and the West and opened up a rhetorical arena for political narrators like the East German citizen movements, the West German press, and the West German leadership to define and exploit the political crisis and put forward favorable resolutions. With this dissertation, I trace the neglected and forgotten political directions as they reside in the narratives of the East German citizen movements, the West German press, and the West German political leadership between November 1989 and February 1990. The events surrounding November 9th, 1989, present a unique opportunity for this endeavor in that the common flows of political communication between organized East German publics, the West German press, and West German political leaders changed for a moment and with it the distribution of political legitimacy. To account for these new flows of political communication and the battle between different political crisis narrators over the rhetorical rights to reestablish political legitimacy, I develop a rhetorical model for political crisis narrative. This theoretical model integrates insights from political crisis communication theories, strategic narratives, and rhetoric.

Zur Entstehung des Stasi-Unterlagen-Gesetzes Eine Dokumentation der öffentlichen Debatte 1990/1991 Reihe A: Dokumente Nr. 1/1995 Der Bundesbeauftragte für die Unterlagen des Staatssicherheitsdienstes der ehemaligen Deutschen Demokratischen Republik Abteilung Bildung und Forschung 10106 Berlin E-Mail: [email protected] Die Meinungen, die in dieser Schriftenreihe geäußert werden, geben ausschließlich die Auffassungen der Autoren wieder.

Schutzgebühr: 5,00 € Nachdruck der um ein Vorwort erweiterten 2. Auflage von 1997 Berlin 2020 ISBN 978-3-942130-39-4 Eine PDF-Version dieser Publikation ist unter der folgenden URN kostenlos abrufbar: urn:nbn:de:0292-97839421303940 Vorwort zur Neuauflage Im Vergleich mit den politischen Umbrüchen in den anderen postkommunistischen Ländern war die Friedliche Revolution 1989/90 in der DDR außerordentlich stark von der Auflösung der Stasi und der Auseinandersetzung um die Vernichtung ihrer Akten geprägt. Die Besetzung der regionalen Dienststellen im Dezember 1989 und der Zentrale des MfS (Ministerium für Staats- sicherheit) am 15. Januar 1990 bildeten Höhepunkte des revolutionären Geschehens. Die Fokus- sierung der Bürgerbewegung auf die Entmachtung des geheimpolizeilichen Apparats und die Sicherung seiner Hinterlassenschaft ist unübersehbar. Diese Fokussierung findet gleichsam ihre Fortsetzung in der Aufarbeitung der diktatorischen Vergangenheit der DDR in den darauffol- genden Jahren, in denen wiederum das Stasi-Thema und die Nutzung der MfS-Unterlagen im Vordergrund standen. Das könnte im Rückblick als zwangsläufige Entwicklung erscheinen, doch bei näherer Betrach- tung wird deutlich, dass das nicht der Fall war. Die Diskussionen des Jahres 1990 zeigen, dass die Nutzung von Stasi-Unterlagen für die Aufarbeitung der Vergangenheit selbst in Kreisen der Bürgerbewegung keineswegs unumstritten war.

The speaker and his mentor – Chat for two voices at a lectern For Christoph Hein on the awarding of the International Stefan Heym Prize on 10th April 2013 in Chemnitz A: We’ve got to have a title, at least a working title! So that people will know what it’s about. B: I was thinking about: “What is water?” A: What is water? What is that supposed to mean? B: Or better still, the quote: “What on earth is water?” A: You mean, if no one knows what it means, people will pay more attention, and it’ll heighten the tension? And you’ll give the answer at the end of the speech? B: No - I wanted to tell the story right at the beginning. A: What story? B: I got it from a colleague: “Two young fish are swimming along, and by chance they meet an older fish coming towards them. He nods to them and says: ‘Morning fellas, what’s the water like?’ The two little fish swim on for a while, and eventually one of them looks at the other and says, ‘What on earth is water?’ A: And what’s the point of this story? B: If, as a reader and writer, I want to explain what literature should be, stories are better than definitions. A: And the definition? B: It’s about wonder. It’s about the distance between us and what’s self-evident, between us and ourselves, about seeing yourself from the outside.
