Berlin Wednesday Society
Discussion series
We are reviving the historical format of the Berlin Wednesday Society on five dates. As in the Age of Enlightenment, the focus will be on discussing socio-political issues: What progress, ambivalences and contradictions can be seen when looking back that still characterize our society today?
In cooperation with the Foundation Places of German Democratic History
