Post Palace. The Children of the 90s and Their GDR

The new publication Postwendekinder starts a conversation
The Palace of the Republic, once a center of state representation and cultural life in the GDR, became a subject of controversy and a symbol of the conflicts surrounding German reunification in the 1990s. Its demolition between 2006 and 2008 continues to spark controversial debates about memory and the question of whose voices are heard – not least within the Humboldt Forum.
What does the Palace mean to a generation that knows it largely through stories? And how has the legacy of the GDR shaped people born in the 1990s?
The publication of Postwendekinder. Für eine solidarische und gleichberechtigte deutsch-deutsche Zukunft invites us to explore these questions together.
With Dominique Falentin, one of the curators of the exhibition Blown Away (on view at the Humboldt Forum in 2024/25), and Julius L. Jung, who has a background in cultural studies, we will discuss their perspectives on the Palace of the Republic. Together with Angelique Pershon, editor of Postwendekinder, and another contributor to the volume, we will ask why it remains important, thirty-six years after reunification, to talk about the identities of young people in Germany today.
We invite the audience to reflect, contribute, and join the discussion.
Moderated by Dr. Judith Prokasky, Humboldt Forum Foundation.
