Roads not Taken am 28. Juli 1914, oder: wie friedliche Demonstrationen den Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkriegs verhindern

In the organizer's words:

Together with other European socialist parties, the Executive Committee of the Socialist International tried to stop the First World War in Brussels on July 29, 1914. Ultimately, however, the socialists stood by their fatherland and did not oppose the war.

Would hundreds of thousands of demonstrators, including many workers mobilized by the Socialists, have had a chance to prevent the war?

Participants: with Kristina Meyer, Wolfgang Kruse and Martin Wroblewski; moderator: Stefan Paul-Jacobs

The event is part of the accompanying program "Roads not Taken am ..:", in which the curators of the exhibition Lili Reyels, Julia Franke and Stefan Paul-Jacobs as well as changing guests enter the paths not taken by seven selected historical dates in discussion rounds and determine: Everything could possibly have turned out quite differently. Or could it?

Free admission.
