Exploring Berlin's contemporary identity, the book examines how the city reconciles its Cold War legacies, including the influence of the four Great Powers, the East German Stasi, and the Berlin Wall. Through an analysis of monuments, museums, and memorials, Dirk Verheyen illustrates Berlin's ongoing efforts to forge a cohesive narrative that unites its divided history and fosters a shared sense of belonging among its residents.
