Biography and violence
Legacies of Occupation. National Socialism and the European Present
© DHM
Talk with Irina Scherbakowa and Helena Janeczek
Moderation: Sabine Adler
Life stories reveal a complex view of violence that is often lost in closed historical accounts. How do these experiences continue to have an effect over long periods of time, in family memories? And what happens when different experiences of violence overlap?
In conversation: Irina Scherbakowa, Germanist, co-founder of Memorial and Nobel Peace Prize winner, and Helena Janeczek, writer
Legacies of Occupation. National Socialism and the European present
The Second World War and the German occupation of Europe ended more than 80 years ago. However, the associated experiences of violence continue to shape European societies to this day. At the invitation of the ZWBE, prominent voices will discuss these effects in relation to current political conflicts, long-term economic developments, social coexistence, culture and forms of remembrance.
A Series of talks of the Documentation Center "Second World War and German Occupation in Europe" (ZWBE)
Moderator: Sabine Adler, radio journalist and long-time correspondent for Deutschlandradio
Location: 2nd floor in the Pei-Bau, DHM
Event in German, partly with simultaneous translation
