IDS 2222 - Berlin: Past, Present & Green FutureCredits: 2
This exploration of Berlin will tour sites associated not only with Berlin’s dark past during the Nazi period, but what preceded it culturally and politically in the Weimar Republic, the divided Berlin of the Cold War- Iron Curtain period and the revitalized unified Berlin of today with its cultural vitality, progressive climate policies and as an intellectual and cultural center of the largest member of the European Union.
The history of Berlin will be discovered through the many museums, holocaust memorials and cultural exhibitions and performances. There will be lectures by the professor, historians, embassy officials and public policy makers in Berlin including scholars from the American Academy of Berlin (which was created to foster the relationship between scholars in the Untied States and Germany). European Union officials and political parties will also be of interest in terms of the contemporary issues facing European cities such as Berlin in the 21st century.
