THE FIGHT FOR FREEDOM: GERMANY’S PATH TO DEMOCRACY

Germany’s path to democracy was long and sometimes bloody: brave women and men risked their lives in the 19th and 20th centuries so that we can live in freedom today. They not only had to fight against political resistance, but also against backward-looking monarchs and a criminal dictatorship. Mirko Drotschmann’s lecture will focus on the ideas that inspired and inspired them, who the protagonists were and how they ultimately succeeded in building one of the most modern democratic systems in the world on the ruins of a brutal regime of injustice – and why we should still stand up for our democracy today.
