AB In her contribution, Nele Dittrich presents an episode from Kiel university history taken out of the moving times of the 1968 movement: At the end of the 1960s, Professor Dr. Horst Gärtner was confronted with a smear campaign by the Hamburg magazine konkret, which accused him of having experimented on NBC weapons within the context of a Bundeswehr research post. Dittrich describes the consequences of those allegations on the life and reputation of the professor and the extent of the protests against him. In the article we encounter a strongly politicized student body that did not shrink from neither loud protests nor legal disputes in order to defame Professor Gärtner and his institute and to enforce their demands for democratization of the university.
