Integral to this concept is the variable and highly subjective distinction made by various parties between “good” and “evil,” “right” and “wrong,” “us” and “them.” This thesis examines these concepts as they relate to the actions and manifestos of the Red Army Faction (die Rote Armee Fraktion) in 1970s Germany, and seeks to understand how its members became regarded as terrorists.

An anti-Greek sentiment evolved and spread among German citizens and solidarity for crisis-hit Greece was mostly rejected. Public surveys revealed that many Germans even wanted Greece to exit the Eurozone immediately. This article highlights the crucial role of the media in shaping the negative public opinion. In 2010, a period which has lately been referred to as Greek bashing, the German press had discussed the Greek financial crisis heatedly and controversially. Europe’s largest daily newspaper, BILD, published numerous reports that implicitly and explicitly constituted the myth of the corrupt and lazy Greeks in comparison to the hard-working Germans. In 2012, the crisis had spread much further, and not only Greece but other countries too were suffering from high debt, economic stagnation and unemployment. The news coverage became more moderate and conciliating and presented the dramatic social consequences for the respective population. This study highlights not only the development of the German media’s tenor on the Greek crisis through time, but adds an international perspective and widens the view by comparing the media treatment of the different countries involved.

  • Cyril Buffet the German Philosopher Walter Benjamin Considered That
    Brolly. Journal of Social Sciences 2 (3) 2019 THE COLD WAR AS A VISUAL CONFLICT: PHOTOGRAPHIC REPRESENTATIONS OF THE BERLIN WALL Cyril Buffet PhD, historian of international relations. He has written and edited volumes on Germany (Histoire de Berlin, Fayard, Paris, 1993; Le Jour où le Mur est tombé, Larousse, Paris, 2009), myths in world politics (with Beatrice Heuser, Haunted by History, Berghahn, Oxford, 1998) and on the history of film (Défunte Defa, Corlet, Paris, 2007; Cinema in the Cold War. Political Projections, Routledge, Abingdon, 2016). [email protected] Abstract. This article deals with the iconology of the Berlin Wall from its construction, in August 1961, to its fall, in November 1989. The Berlin Wall was the symbol of the Cold War. It was the most photographed and filmed motif of that period. In this regard, the West and the East gave each other a battle of images: some of them became world-famous. They included photographs that proclaimed the Wall to be an “antifascist rampart” on one side and a “Wall of Shame” on the other side. These photographs formed binary couples: freedom vs. peace, concrete and barbed wire vs. human flesh, victims vs. martyrs. Keywords: Berlin Wall, Cold War, GDR, iconography, propaganda, memorials The German philosopher Walter Benjamin considered that “history is broken down into images”1. History produces pictures – paintings, and more recently, photos, and the pictures in turn influence history, influence our collective historical memory2. Pictures of the past determine our image of the past. Some pictures have the power to crystallize interpretations of an event in our head, to shape its perception and to fix it in the collective memory.

I am also grateful to John Gooch for being a member of my thesis committee and his focus on rhetoric has inspired this thesis to orient itself after that direction.
