The two German revolutions of 1848 and 1989 were a struggle for the attainment of various civil liberties and the desire to redeem the concept of “liberty, equality and fraternity,” which was also used in the GDR. Political scientist Judith C. Enders and curator Martin Düspohl will talk about the handling of violence – especially in 1848 – and repression, but also about different strategies of democratic coping with revolutionary movements.
Dr. Judith C. Enders studied political science at the Otto Suhr Institute of Freie Universität Berlin, completed a research stay in New York and Rutgers University/USA in 2004, and received her PhD in social sciences from the University of Kassel in 2007. From 2009-2012, she worked in sustainability research at the “Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies” in Potsdam. She won the Gustav Heinemann Prize in 2013 for her involvement in the initiative “Third Generation East Germany” and the Theodor Heuss Medal in 2019 for the association “Perspektive hoch 3 e. V.”. Since 2014, Enders has been a lecturer in the master’s program “Network Management Education for Sustainable Development – Focus on Childhood Education” at the Alice Salomon University of Applied Sciences Berlin and a member of the Board of Trustees; since 2017, she has been a certified mediator and psychoanalyst in training and since 2019, she has been an honorary board member of the association “perspektive3 e.V.” (www.perspektive-hoch-drei.de) and a member of the German government’s commission “30 Years of Peaceful Revolution and German Unity.”
Martin Düspohl, born in 1957, holds a degree in education and is a research associate at the Memorial Cemetery of the March Fallen in Berlin.
