teleSUR Reports - Berlin 2014, Beyond the End of History

A documentary on the fall of the German Democratic Republic in 1989 and developments in the eastern part of Germany in the next quarter of a century. What began as mass mobilizations of GDR citizens for reforms and a democratic socialism turned into a reunification with the capitalist German Federal Republic on the latter's terms, with the loss of the GDR's broad gains in education, health, gender equality, and social security benefits along with the negative features of Stalinism. "Berlin 2014, Beyond the End of History" offers elements and personal recollections and experiences for drawing a balance sheet of these events. teleSUR
