Menschen zweier Staaten, die 40 Jahre lang voneinander getrennt waren, mussten lernen, miteinander zu leben und die verschiedenen kulturellen Hintergr\u00fcnde der jeweils anderen Seite anzuerkennen. Doch wie gut ist das Zusammenwachsen tats\u00e4chlich gelungen und das Miteinander seitdem gediehen? Diesen Fragen gingen die Diskutanten bei der Podiumsdiskussion \u201eGeteilt. Vereint. Verbunden? Ost und West im Dialog\u201c auf den Grund, zu der die VHS Frankfurt am Main prominent ins Stadthaus der Mainmetropole geladen hatte.<\/p>\n<p>Nach einer Einf\u00fchrung durch die Stadtr\u00e4tin und Bildungsdezernentin Sylvia Weber begr\u00fc\u00dfte der Gesch\u00e4ftsf\u00fchrer des Lern- und Erinnerungsorts Notaufnahmelager-Gie\u00dfen PD Dr. Florian Greiner die G\u00e4ste und stellte den G\u00e4sten in seiner Funktion als Moderator der Veranstaltung die Podiumsteilnehmer vor.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_49530\" style=\"width: 352px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-49530\" class=\" wp-image-49530\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pointalpha.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/10\/vhs-Metzler_n-200x300.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Mit Augenzwinkern wies der Vorstand der Point Alpha Stiftung, Philipp Metzler, darauf hin, dass Einheit nicht die Aufhebung aller Unterschiede bedeute und machte dies anhand der Dialektgrenzen innerhalb seines eigenen Bundeslandes Th\u00fcringen deutlich.\" width=\"342\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pointalpha.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/10\/vhs-Metzler_n-200x300.jpg.webp 200w, https:\/\/www.pointalpha.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/10\/vhs-Metzler_n-683x1024.jpg.webp 683w, https:\/\/www.pointalpha.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/10\/vhs-Metzler_n-768x1152.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.pointalpha.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/10\/vhs-Metzler_n-1024x1536.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.pointalpha.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2025\/10\/vhs-Metzler_n.jpg.webp 1365w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 342px) 100vw, 342px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-49530\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mit Augenzwinkern wies der Vorstand der Point Alpha Stiftung, Philipp Metzler, darauf hin, dass Einheit nicht die Aufhebung aller Unterschiede bedeute und machte dies anhand der Dialektgrenzen innerhalb seines eigenen Bundeslandes Th\u00fcringen deutlich.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Mit dabei der th\u00fcringische Innenminister Georg Maier, der sich selbst als Grenzg\u00e4nger zwischen Th\u00fcringen und Hessen verortet. Er pl\u00e4dierte f\u00fcr eine offene Kommunikation, damit der Populismus die Gef\u00fchle der Menschen nicht ausnutzen k\u00f6nne. Aus seinen Erfahrungen berichtete auch der 1953 geborene Autor und Fotograf Siegfried Wittenburg. Er habe die SED-Diktatur am eigenen Leib erlebt und setze sich auch deshalb seit der Wiedervereinigung f\u00fcr die politische Bildung in diesem Bereich ein. Von einer anderen Perspektive aus beleuchtete die 1976 in Altenburg geborene Politikwissenschaftlerin und Mitbegr\u00fcnderin der Initiative \u201eDritte Generation Ostdeutschland\u201c Dr. Judith Enders die Zeit der Wiedervereinigung. Online zugeschaltet aus Belgrad, wies sie in ihren Statements auf die Schwierigkeiten der Transformation nach 1990 hin.<\/p>\n<p>Aus zwei Perspektiven betrachtete der 1993 in Bad Salzungen geborene Vorstand der Point Alpha Stiftung Philipp Metzler den Einheitsprozess. Einerseits habe er in seiner wissenschaftlichen Arbeit viele Perspektiven auf die Zeit kennengelernt. Metzler pl\u00e4dierte daf\u00fcr, Einheit nicht mit Gleichheit zu verwechseln: \u201eMenschen d\u00fcrfen unterschiedlich sein, sich individuell entfalten, das ist Freiheit.\u201c Andererseits gab er zu bedenken, dass selbst West- und Ostth\u00fcringer sehr unterschiedlich sind und sich daraus auch kein Bild eines geteilten Landes konstruieren lasse. Er w\u00fcnsche sich gerade f\u00fcr den Osten, dass h\u00e4ufiger auch die Freiheit des Anderen besser anerkannt und gesch\u00e4tzt werden w\u00fcrde.<\/p>\n<p>In der Schlussrunde sprachen sich alle Diskutanten f\u00fcr einen Ausbau der politischen Bildung aus. Hier sei der Nachholbedarf gro\u00df, insbesondere wenn es um die Bek\u00e4mpfung schon lange bestehender Mythen im gesellschaftlichen Diskurs geht. Alle waren sich einig, dass die Kommunikation miteinander im Vordergrund stehen m\u00fcsse. So endete ein vielschichtiger Abend im Stadthaus am Markt mit neuen Erkenntnissen und vielen Denkanst\u00f6\u00dfen, die nicht nur das Publikum mit nach Hause nahmen.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=\u00a0\u00bbin_container\u00a0\u00bb full_screen_row_position=\u00a0\u00bbmiddle\u00a0\u00bb column_margin=\u00a0\u00bbdefault\u00a0\u00bb column_direction=\u00a0\u00bbdefault\u00a0\u00bb column_direction_tablet=\u00a0\u00bbdefault\u00a0\u00bb column_direction_phone=\u00a0\u00bbdefault\u00a0\u00bb scene_position=\u00a0\u00bbcenter\u00a0\u00bb text_color=\u00a0\u00bbdark\u00a0\u00bb text_align=\u00a0\u00bbleft\u00a0\u00bb row_border_radius=\u00a0\u00bbnone\u00a0\u00bb row_border_radius_applies=\u00a0\u00bbbg\u00a0\u00bb overflow=\u00a0\u00bbvisible\u00a0\u00bb overlay_strength=\u00a0\u00bb0.3&Prime;
