It analyzes changes in the eastern part of the city before and after the Berlin Wall, providing theoretical insights and broader historical context. Additionally, it introduces the concept of the "symbolic foreigner," highlighting the feelings of disenfranchisement experienced by former citizens of the GDR in contemporary German society.
