  • Hocquet (Centre Max Weber, Université Jean Monnet - Saint-Étienne) [email protected]
    Urbanities, Vol. 3 · No 2 · November 2013 © 2013 Urbanities The Exhibition of Communist Objects and Symbols in Berlin’s Urban Landscape as Alternative Narratives of the Communist Past Marie Hocquet (Centre Max Weber, Université Jean Monnet - Saint-Étienne) [email protected] The objective of this article is to investigate the different approaches at play in the material and symbolic production of the urban space through the study of the transformations of the East-Berlin urban landscape since the German reunification. I will show how the official accounts of the ex-GDR have crystallised in the Berlin urban space through the construction of a negative heritage. I will then focus on how the increase in historic tourism in the capital has contributed to the emergence of legible micro-accounts related to the local communist past in the urban space that compete with the official interpretations of this past. Key words: Berlin, symbolism, communism, heritage Introduction Urban space can be considered as a privileged place where one can observe the work of self- definition undertaken by societies. This is because human beings take their place in a physical environment by materialising their being-in-the-world. The urban landscape is defined by Mariusz Czepczyński as a ‘visible and communicative media through which thoughts, ideas and feelings, as well as powers and social constructions are represented in a space’ (Czepczyński 2010: 67). In the process outlined above, the narrativisation of the past and its inscription in the urban space is a phenomenon of primary importance. Our cities’ landscapes are linked to memory in a dynamic process which constantly urges societies to visualise themselves, to imagine the future and to represent themselves in it.

  • Architecture in Berlin. a Walk Through History Instructor
    Course title: Architecture in Berlin. A Walk through History Instructor: Dr. Gernot Weckherlin Email address: [email protected] Track: A-Track Language of instruction: English Contact hours: 48 (6 per day) ECTS-Credits: 5 Prerequisites: Students should be able to speak and read English at the upper intermediate level (B2) or higher. Course description This course gives a wide overview of the development of public and private architecture in Berlin during the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. Following an introduction to the urban development and architectural history of the Modern era, the Neo-Classical period will be surveyed with special reference to the works of Schinkel. This will be followed by classes on architecture of the German Reich after 1871, which was characterized by both modern and conservative tendencies and the manifold activities during the time of the Weimar Republic in the 1920s such as the Housing Revolution. The architecture of the Nazi period will be examined, followed by the developments in East and West Berlin after the Second World War. The course concludes with a detailed review of the city’s more recent and current architectural profiles, including an analysis of the conflicts concerning the re-design of Berlin after the Cold War and the German reunification. Seven walking tours to historically significant buildings and sites are included (Unter den Linden, Gendarmenmarkt, New Housing Estates, Chancellory, Potsdamer Platz, Holocaust Memorial etc.). The course aims to offer a deeper understanding of the interdependence of Berlin’s architecture and the city’s social and political structures. It considers Berlin as a model for the highways and by-ways of a European capital in modern times.

  • It from Bit? [Otra] Lección Del Nikolaiviertel “It from Bit?” [One More] Lesson from the Nikolaiviertel
    IT FROM BIT? [OTRA] LECCIÓN DEL NIKOLAIVIERTEL “IT FROM BIT?” [ONE MORE] LESSON FROM THE NIKOLAIVIERTEL Javier RUIZ SÁNCHEZ* RESUMEN La actividad urbanística en Berlín oriental antes de la caída del muro es a menudo despachada como exenta de interés. Incluso una actuación tan singular como la reconstrucción del Nikolaiviertel es a menudo ignorada, o banalizada, probablemente debido a su lenguaje neohistoricista tanto como a su conversión como foco turístico en los últimos años. Ello contrasta con la atención prestada a otras actuaciones llevadas a cabo tras la reunificación. El presente artículo reivindica esta actuación, por lo que tiene de indagación sobre los mecanismos de construcción de complejidad urbana y entendimiento de la ciudad como objeto histórico en evolución. Quizá banal en una aproximación como proyecto, no lo es en absoluto como proceso. Palabras clave: Berlín, Regeneración urbana, Centros históricos, Complejidad urbana. ABSTRACT Urban Planning in East Berlin before 1989 is often referred as lack of interest. Even a singular project as the rebuilding of the Nikolaiviertel is often ignored, if not trivially considered, probably due to its neohistorical architectural language as much as its becoming an outstanding tourist centre in the recent years. This is more significant if we look at the attention paid to other projects after the reunification. This text tries to vindicate some lessons in this project, as we see it as an enquiry on urban methods for creating urban complexity and understanding the city as an historical object in evolution. If possibly trivial as a project, it is not at all as a process. Keywords: Berlin, Urban Regeneration, Historical Centres, Urban Complexity.
