Freiheit : Recht : Friede : Herbst 2025 aktueller denn je

Autumn

F
Freiheit-Recht-Friede ist ein dringender Appell gegen den Krieg in der Ukraine und gegen Länder ohne Rechte – insbesondere rechtlose Frauen – wie Afghanistan oder Iran, um nur einige zu nennen, in und auch schon lange vor 2025.

Die Geschichte der Stadt Berlin der 1920er lässt prominente Bauten wie den Funkturm (1926), das Amerikahaus (1930) am Theodor-Heuss-Platz, das Haus des Rundfunks (1931, Masurenallee) und das Messegelände (1930) entstehen.

Was zu Zeiten der Nazis 1933 als „Adolf-Hitler-Platz“ das Ende der Ost-West-Achse der von Hitler und Speer geplanten Welthauptstadt Germania markierte, ist bis heute sichtbar am monumentalen Olympiagelände von 1936. Seit 1955 thront am Theodor- Heuss-Platz das Denkmal Freiheit-Recht-Friede: hoechst aktuell in diesen Tagen.

Gleisdreieck Park in Berlin-Schoeneberg: local Court rulings postponed – again and again, now OFF until October 13, 2025

Autumn, Kreuzberg

—- have a look at https://gleisdreieck-blog.de in German.
The news is a series of postponements by local Government that obviously runs short of court staff, judges and/or other personnel? Who knows? Berlin is curious!
People are waiting and will be there, the more the better!

Berlin`s communal discourse is situated along green spots at Gleisdreieck Park where German railway stakeholder Deutsche Bahn and Berlin`s civil society face growing concerns, confrontation and dissense on the planned construction of external real estate. The plan looks at up to seven office skyscrapers without a single habitation, see https://www.bz-berlin.de/berlin/gleisdreieck-hochhaeuser.

Kreuzberg kiez, too, faces emerging construction sites situated near Engelbecken and Ostbahnhof, see https://entwicklungsstadt.de/klotzen-statt-kleckern-wohnungs-neubau-am-engelbecken-in-kreuzberg/

One of Berlin`s green meeting destinations hence debates the future of Gleisdreieck Park with growing dissense by the minute, as the vision appears dark due to planned office buildíngs that no one needs or wants. Public awareness of the local community is hence persisting against repeated restrictive injunction claims, see below in German: https://gleisdreieck-blog.de/2025/09/11/unterlassungsklagen-finanzielle-engpaesse-und-die-abstimmung-zur-urbanen-mitte-im-abgeordnetenhaus/comment-page-1/#comment-21528 The forthcoming local Advisory Board elections are fixed for September 24, 2025.

For orientation, you can easily walk from Potsdamer Platz to Gleisdreieck Park in less than ten minutes: this fillet piece is actively used by pedestrians as much as by local communities that are fully aware of the risks of speculation. People continue to show their well-addressed objections against any high-rise buildings in the middle of their green axis.

Excerpt here: The investors’ plan calls for 70% office and 30% commercial space. Does Berlin really need more office space? Or more shopping malls? Gleisdreieck Park was a success with the public from the beginning, before the appearance of any commercial spaces at the park’s borders. Even more commercial space is a complete waste. What Berlin needs is affordable living space.`

Berlin am Gleisdreieck – keine Buerotuerme, nicht 2025 und auch nicht danach !

Bei genauem Hinhoeren gehe es ueberwiegend um neue Bueros und Hochhaeuser, in keiner Weise um notwendigen Wohnraum … wo bleiben die Berlinerinnen, wo die Berliner? Wo sind die Kinder und ihre Auslaufmoeglichkeiten? Wer will das, was einzelnen Politikern des Berliner Senats vorschwebt? Wem genau, mit welchem Konzept? berlinsights sieht darin eher ein kommerziell angestrebtes Vorhaben ohne
konkrete Einbindung der lokalen Bevoelkerung.

 

The Beguinage Movement in Western Europe: Berlinsights Visit April 2025

Summer


Traveling to visit the Beguines in the 21st century meant to learn about the spirit of faith without being confessionally reilgious or bound to a specific church in Europe.

Looking back at times between the13th–16th centuries, we learnt that Beguinage members lived in partly monastic communities, yet without formal religious vows “as long as they lived as Beguines” according to an early Rule of Life. They understood themselves as part of a larger spiritual revival movement of the 13th century, yet most importantly, they were able to leave at any time. Voluntary poverty, care of the poor and sick, and religious devotion were meant to be the glue of their spiritual belief.  Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beguines_and_Beghards
