On this 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, here is an interesting analysis how the once divided nation remains demographically and economically divided. I visited East Berlin in the mid-80s, passing through Checkpoint Charlie. Then in 2007, as a RIAS Berlin Commission fellow, i had the opportunity to travel to several cities and to meet with government and private sector leaders. One of the most memorable experiences was meeting a former civilian prisoner of the Stasi secret police and standing with him in his former cell as he told his story.
