Theoretically expansive yet historically well-grounded, Post-Wall Berlin: Borders, Space and Identity offers a powerful lens through which to view this city’s latest self-reinvention. Presenting a trans-disciplinary approach to understanding one of the world’s most iconic cities, the book relates to recent trends in post-Cold-War cultural history, memory studies, visual culture, and border studies. Through a focus on the moving boundaries of Berlin, Janet Ward reshapes the parameters of urban enquiry and sheds new light on debates surrounding the city’s division and rebuilding, post-1989 and post-9/11 globalization, the new Europe, urban preservation and ’memory sites’. This book is, in short, a bold reassessment of the modern and postmodern urban condition.
