| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project studied, how the traumatic past of the Nazism, WWII, and the Holocaust is remembered in Germany after the reunification. Especially, my project focused on the historical representation in the public space and analyzed mainly monuments, museums and installations created in Berlin after 1990. For comparison, I investigated places of remembrance of the War in Japan. The results indicated that in Germany after the reunification the socio-political practices of remembering the Nazi past (i.e. the culture of memory) intend to symbolize the traumatic past as a contrastive self-image, on one hand in order to clarify the political profile of Germany as a democratic state within the framework of the EU, and on the other hand so as to strengthen the integration of the reunified nation.
