The project\naims to examine the transformation processes since 1990 on the basis of\ncontributions from about 40 local television broadcasters in Saxony in the\n1990s. The unification process questioned previous standards and led to a\nreadjustment; loss of Heimat, the familiar, but also the search for the new\ncharacterized this process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From\nOctober 2019 until 2020, Judith Kretzschmar and R\u00fcdiger Steinmetz will give\nlectures throughout Saxony with regionally specific programme excerpts. They\ninvestigate: How do the many Saxon private local television programmes of the\nearly years after the Peaceful Revolution (1990-95) contribute to the\nunderstanding of the transition into a united Germany and today explosive\ntopics of growing together?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project aims to analyse the programmes of Saxon local television broadcasters, conduct surveys and interviews with contemporary witnesses and produce videos and handouts for multipliers of political education. Discussion events and symposia are also planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
