Die Menschheit wird klüger, indem sie aus ihrer Geschichte lernt? Vielleicht!

In the organizer's words:

Position: Spanish Civil War

Humanity gets smarter by learning from its history? Perhaps

An attentive look at history illuminates the present. We are showing two films about the Spanish Civil War. Shortly before the European elections and three landmark state elections in Germany, a victory for the fascist Höcke seems anything but out of the question. Between July 1936 and April 1939, a civil war raged in Spain between the government of the Second Republic and the supporters of the fascist General Franco. Many Germans also fought on both sides. Together with the representatives of the films shown and the historian Claudia Honefeld, we will talk about the significance of the civil war, which extends far beyond Spain and is still symbolic of the fight against European fascism today. What about the politics of remembrance in Spain and Germany and what conclusions can be drawn for the present?
