About
In this book, Tobias Allers explains and describes the current state of Berlin club culture.
In this book, Tobias Allers explains and describes the current state of Berlin club culture. Freiräume Berliner Clubkultur' contains testimonials and interviews and explores the purpose of these emblematic Berlin venues. Their birth after the fall of the Berlin Wall and their evolution mirror the development of the city and its history. Gentrification, nightlife, music culture, urbanisation, the city's economy, tourism and political issues are just some of the subjects Tobias Allers tackles in this book.
Clubs are not just places to party, they are spaces of expression, places of diversity, safer spaces for marginalised groups.
The history of Berlin’s club culture is not only a succession of wild nights, but it also reflects social changes. In recent decades, gentrification has a massive impact on the scene, displacing many venues in the process. Tobias Allers highlights the conflicts and discussions surrounding gentrification and the death of clubs, and shows how this has shaped Berlin’s nightlife.
