Abstract: | From the Göttinger 18 in the Wyhler Wald. The learning movement of a social movement beginning in 1957. 18 German nuclear physicists signed a declaration in 1957 in which they refused to take part in the production, testing and use of nuclear weapons. This Göttinger Declaration was the beginning of the anti-atomic energy movement, which subsequently developed into a self-organised educational scene. One symbol of this is the Wyhler Wald Adult Education Centre in Baden, which the article examines as an example of an institutionalised form of a social movement. Contents, forms of dialogue and methods used by initiatives such as the Easter March Movement, Anti-Atomic Energy or the Third World Initiative also became part of the courses offered at established adult education institutions. |
