Abstract

Twenty years ago, the Berlin Wall, the iconic symbol of the Cold War, fell. Its disappearance marked the end of the repressive, communist regime of East Germany (hereafter GDR, German Democratic Republic) and offered prospects for a more hopeful future for its former citizens...Two decades later, it is apparent that not all the hopes engendered by the fall of the Wall have been realized.
