with Sibylle Berg, Iwan-Michelangelo D'Aprile and Susanne Lachenicht
Moderation: Kai-Michael Sprenger and Julia Voss
"Liberty, equality, fraternity": the French Revolution's call for freedom did not result in the liberation of all, nor in a unified movement of solidarity with the socially marginalized; human rights did not include everyone. What is the relationship between emancipation and violence in the revolutions of the 18th century? Why did and do people have to fight for a say and equality and to what extent does violence play a role in this? Are there any links to today's protest movements?
