Founded in 1948 in the midst of the Berlin Blockade, the university was supposed to become a haven for the pursuit of learning, free from the ideological strife of Berlin. In reality, the Free University never escaped the ideological passions that split the postwar world. In the last forty years, it has been, more often than not, at the sharp end of East-West political confrontation, and the environment in which it operates has been a far cry from ideologically neutral. In many ways, the story of the Free University is the story of Cold War politics in microcosm. It is a complex and fascinating tale that has important lessons for higher education. Founded by students who were determined not to accept totalitarian strait-jacketing from either the right or the left, the Free University developed under a democratic constitution that featured prominent student representation and minimal state interference. In the 1950s, the university was devoted to reforming the university system and played a major role in rebuilding German respectability in the social sciences. But it also became militantly anticommunist. Then came the Wall in 1961, and shortly after that the greening of a new generation of students who knew little of the privations and ideological strife of the postwar period.
