  • Berliner Mauer Und Innerdeutsche Grenze Bestandsverzeichnis Aus Der Bibliothek Der Bundesstiftung Aufarbeitung
    Berliner Mauer und innerdeutsche Grenze Bestandsverzeichnis aus der Bibliothek der Bundesstiftung Aufarbeitung In der Nacht zum 13. August 1961 begann die Abriegelung der Grenze zu den Berliner Westsektoren durch das SED-Regime. Mit einem Großaufgebot an Einsatzkräften von Volks- und Grenzpolizei sowie Betriebskampfgruppen der SED wurden Verbindungs- straßen aufgerissen, Spanische Reiter und Stacheldrahtverhaue errichtet und der öffentliche Nahverkehr zwischen den beiden Stadtteilen dauerhaft unterbrochen. In den folgenden Tagen und Wochen wurden die provisorischen Stacheldrahtsperren unter scharfer Bewachung durch DDR-Grenzposten mit einer Mauer aus Hohlblock- steinen und Betonplatten ersetzt. Walter Ulbricht hatte sein Ziel erreicht. Der letzte noch offene Fluchtweg in den Westen war geschlossen und die bis dahin stetig wachsende Fluchtbewegung aus der DDR gestoppt. Die Berliner Mauer existierte über 28 Jahre lang und wurde zum Symbol für das menschenverachtende Regime in der DDR-Diktatur und zum Symbol der Deutschen Teilung und des Kalten Krieges. Die Mauer stand zudem für die Unerbittlichkeit eines Regimes, das auch vor Todesschüssen auf Flüchtlinge nicht zurückschreckte. Die vorliegende Bibliographie umfasst sämtliche Monographien, Broschüren und audiovisuellen Medien aus dem Bestand der Stiftungsbibliothek, die sich dem Themenkomplex Berliner Mauer und innerdeutsche Grenze widmen. Das Verzeichnis ist in folgende Rubriken gegliedert: Mauerbau und Vorgeschichte ● Leben mit der Mauer ● Innerdeutsche Grenze ● Flucht und Opfer der Mauer/innerdeutschen Grenze ● Grenze und Fluchtbewegung vor 1961 ● Gedenkstätten und Erinnerung ● Ausreise Mauerbau und Vorgeschichte 3 x durch den Zaun. Bonn: Büro Bonner Berichte, 1963. Signatur: F 9591 13. August 1961. Bonn: Kuratorium Unteilbares Deutschland, 1961. Signatur: F 9963 13. August 1961. 2., überarb. Aufl. Bonn: Gesamtdt. Inst., 1986.

  • Freier Download BA 44 Jazz Als
    BAD ALCHEMY 44 MC 1 2 NEW CONCEPTIONS OF JAZZ ? Wenn ich mir klar gemacht hätte, dass der Personenkreis der zwischen 14- und 24-Jährigen nur ca. 12% meiner deutschen Zeitgenossen ausmacht (sich in der Kriminalstatistik aber mit über 30% breit macht!), hätte ich mir von dieser vorlauten Minderheit nicht so lange die Sonne verstellen zu lassen. Sollen sie sich doch um ihre poppigen Spielsachen prügeln, BA als ein sich an Alle richtendes Organ braucht den dafür entsprechend weiten Horizont. Für Rock bin ich aber noch zu jung, für Pop und Club- Electro zu alt, für's Allerlei aus Aller-Welt zu bodenständig, für Klassik zu sehr Prolet, bleibt eigentlich nur >Jazz (und anderes)< als Musik für mich und meinesgleichen. Aber ist der >Jazz< von heute, vom gehypeten Hochglanz- bis zum Wasch-mich-aber-mach-mich-nicht-nass-Indie-Dschäss, nicht auch bloß ein polystilistisches Wiederkäuen des Dagewesenen, ein entropisches Schnorren vom Abraum der Jazz- Histoire, ein Refugium für Schmocks? Nur noch Acid und Latin und Fusion und Salsa nach Anything-goes- Rezepten, Jazz goes House, Jazz meets Klezmer, Imaginary Balkan, mystifiziertes Mittelalter? 'Nu' & 'Nova', war das auch mal etwas anderes als ein marktschreierisches Etikett aus der Medienhuren- und Raffbranche, die ihre auf 'now' geschminkten alten Zauseleien auf den globalen Basars zu verhökern versucht? Wie schrieb einst Rolf Niemczyk so schön: "Aus der großen Hexenküche der Popmusik ent- steht mal wieder etwas NEUES. Wie NEU, darüber muß/kann gestritten werden." (Spex 5/89) Wo verbirgt sich nun das Unerhörte mit einer Halbwertzeit, die eine Modesaison überdauert? Wo finde ich Zeitgemäßes, gar Zukunftsweisendes in einer Musik, die ihre besten Tage vor dem 'New Thing' der 60er hatte, wie die Traditionalisten diktieren.

  • The Berlin Wall: History at a Glance History – Testimonies – Relics
    The Berlin Wall: History at a Glance Please note: For the respective openings and closings as well as the special protective measures during the pandemic, check the websites of the museums and memorials. History – Testimonies – Relics © Landesarchiv Berlin Checkpoint Charlie, 1961 For more than 28 years East and West Berlin were divided by an almost insurmountable Wall. Not only did it divide families and friends but it also brought much pain and suffering to the city. At least 136 people lost their lives here, mostly when attempting to flee from East to West. The joy which accompanied the fall of the wall on 9th November 1989 generated a feeling of euphoria in which the majority of border posts disappeared. There are only a few original relics left. The following round-up is intended to help with the search for evidence. In addition, it will provide an insight into the history of the Wall and highlight the dramatic events that took place on 9th November 1989. The Wall – the Background up to its Construction in 1961 As early as during the course of the Second World War the Allies had resolved to divide Germany, once defeated, into occupation zones and allow the country to be administered by the victorious powers, that is, the USA, Great Britain and the USSR. France only came on board as the fourth occupying power after the Yalta Conference in February 1945. At the Conference held in Potsdam at the beginning of August 1945, the victorious powers approved the four zones and the four sectors of Berlin, the eastern boundary along the Oder Neiße line as well as the economic unit of Germany.

  • Berlin – the Cold War Mon 17 – Fri 21 October 2016
    Berlin – The Cold War Mon 17 – Fri 21 October 2016 Day 1 Monday, 17 October On our arrival in Berlin we see some of Berlin’s most iconic sites, including the Brandenberg Gate and Berliner Dom. We will also see the Reichstag, a building erected in 1871 for the Parliament of national unity. Reichstag displays the aspirations of the new unified Germany, and in 1990, it was the first meeting place of the newly elected Bundestag following German reunification. The building is crowned with a glass dome by the architect Norman Foster. Afterwards, we climb the Berlin Television Tower, built in the 1960s to demonstrate the strength and efficiency of the socialist party, for a view of all of Berlin below. Day 2 Tuesday, 18 October The Walking Tour captures Berlin’s constantly changing identity, especially the major changes during the 20th century. We will stand above the site of Hitler’s bunker, walk through Brandenburg Gate, and visit a former ‘Ghost Station’ where East German Border guards patrolled deserted platforms. After, we will lunch at Die Eins and then we will visit the DDR Museum. The museum’s hands on approach about life in Cold War East Germany allows visitors the chance to watch TV in a Communist-era living room to a revving Trabant. After, we will interact with Modern day Germany at the Hackescher Markt, and have dinner at Weihenstephaner am Hackeschen market. [email protected] Day 3 Wednesday, 19 October We escape Berlin for the day as we visit Potsdam, the capital of the German federal state of Bradenburg, which lies on the River Havel as well as the border of Berlin.
