Description of Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Sample Clauses

Description of Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx. Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx is a German journalist born in 1929. After studying Political Science in West Germany he began to publish articles criticizing the GDR, specifically with respect to political persecution. Xxxxxx’x criticism stemmed from his personal experiences with the GDR, beginning when his father, Oskar Xxxx Xxxxxx, was arrested by Soviet Police despite his innocence. Because of Xxxxxx’x critical publications, Stasi representatives drugged and kidnapped Xxxxxx in 1955 from a West Berlin apartment, bringing him to Berlin-Hohenschönhausen and detaining him there for fifteen months. In 1956 Xxxxxx was sentenced to four years imprisonment for Boykotthetze and Spionage. Xxxxxx was released in 1959 back to West Germany. Xxxxxx continued to detail GDR oppression as a journalist following his imprisonment, but was continuously watched by the Stasi until 1989. Due to his history with the prison and his research into the GDR regime, Xxxxxx served as the pre-eminent advisor to the Berlin-Hohenschönhausen memorial during the 2000s (Xxxxx, 2007, p. 367). Xxxxxx’x kidnapping was not his only painful connection to the Stasi and the GDR. Both of Xxxxxx’x parents also had experiences in eastern prisons. After his arrest by the Soviets, Xxxxxx’x father was “sentenced to twelve years in a penitentiary during the notorious Xxxxxxxx trials. He died behind bars in 1952” (Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Society, 2009), three years before Xxxxxx’x kidnapping. Xxxxxx’x mother, Xxxxx Xxxxxx, was also kidnapped by the Stasi in 1955 under accusations that “she had been aware of and supported his activities. She was given a two- year sentence in February 1956” (Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Society, 2009). Because of Xxxxxx’x torturous experiences with the GDR and the Stasi, it would be fair for Xxxxxx’x works to be totally biased negatively towards the GDR, but surprisingly: “Although he had good reason to sow hate and anger, Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx was at all times clear and appropriate, showing incorruptible judgment but never unfair, unjust or unobjective. That earned him even the respect of his political opponents.” (Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Society, 2009) Ultimately, this “clear and appropriate” character of Xxxxxx, an individual repeatedly persecuted by the Stasi, makes his recount of his experiences in Hohenschönhausen all the more useful for an understanding of GDR prison tactics.
