Recenzii
"The Berlin Wall stood for 28 years before crumbling in the midst of popular protests that begin in November 1989. This year will mark the 28th anniversary of its fall. Thus, it seems timely to consider the ways that Germans have sought to remember the barrier that divided them for so long. Using Checkpoint Charlie as her focus, Frank (sociology, Technische Univ. Berlin) examines the debates surrounding the commemoration of the wall. She devotes the first part of her ambitious new book to a theoretical exploration of the concept of heritage and provides a thorough review of recent literature on the topic. Here, she makes the argument that heritage research should become a subdiscipline of its own in the field of sociology. The book's second part traces the complicated—and often contentious—discussions that have transpired since the 1990s regarding how Checkpoint Charlie specifically, and the Berlin Wall more generally, should be memorialized. This fascinating history of commemoration in reunified Germany identifies the interests of both public and private stakeholders and illuminates how competing agendas often led to misunderstandings and conflict. Summing Up: Highly recommended"

Descriere
This book offers a comprehensive overview of the interdisciplinary international heritage debate and analyzes the transformation of Berlin’s former Allied border control point, "Checkpoint Charlie," into a global heritage industry site. This crucial case study demonstrates that an unregulated global heritage industry has risen in Berlin which capitalizes on the internationally very attractive -- but locally and nationally still very painful – heritage of the Berlin Wall. Productively integrating theory with empirical evidence, this innovative book will enrich the international literature on heritage and on its economic and political contexts.
