The reunification of Germany in 1990 has prompted far-reaching
debates about German identity, history and tradition. One framework
for these debates is provided by the extensive urban development
and building activities which have commenced in Eastern Germany
since 1990. This ethnographic case study of post-communist Dresden
explores the complex symbolic meanings of such projects as the
rebuilding of the Frauenkirche, Dresden's quarrels with the UNESCO
about a new Elbe bridge, and many others. It traces a history of
civic engagement from the time of the GDR through to the present of
reunified Germany, and demonstrates the built environment's
importance for identity construction in periods of social
transformation.
