Kontinuität im Neubeginn. Reden der Zentralen Veranstaltung der Universität Hamburg am 6. November 2015 anlässlich des 70. Jahrestags ihrer Wiedereröffnung 1945

Abstract

After the occupation of Hamburg by British troops on May 3rd, 1945, the Hamburg University was closed, but reopened on November 6th, 1945 - half a year after the end of the "Third Reich" and the Second World War. On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of this reopening on 6 November 2015, the University of Hamburg took the opportunity to publicly discuss the difficult transition of its own institution from the Nazi dictatorship into the democratic post-war period. This volume of "Hamburger Universitätsreden" documents the four speeches held on on this occation.
