Interesting, I was in Hamburg in Dec for the CCC conference (Which was great btw) and stayed for new years eve. I was curious why so many police were around downtown but figured it was just due to the massive amounts of fireworks everyone was setting off. Do you have any good sources to get more information on this?
- Xylakant 13y agoSorry, I only have german sources: http://www.zeit.de/gesellschaft/zeitgeschehen/2014-01/gefahrengebiet-hamburg http://www.zeit.de/gesellschaft/zeitgeschehen/2014-01/gefahr... (recent developments) http://www.zeit.de/gesellschaft/zeitgeschehen/2013-12/Rote-Flora-Hamburg-Demonstration-Bericht http://www.zeit.de/gesellschaft/zeitgeschehen/2013-12/Rote-F... (about the original demonstration) The underlying situation is pretty complicated and dates back to developments in the 80s (Hafenstrasse Hamburg etc.), I doubt there's good english references.
- precisioncoder 13y agoNo worries I read German as well, living in Austria so I had to learn, thanks for the sources!
