Law and the Challenge of Rehumanization - Human Remains, Dignity, and the Question of Rights Hackmack, Judith Author aut Text xx# 2022 Verfassungsblog 2022-12-03 eng The report “We want them back”, published earlier this year, found at least 5958 human remains from colonials contexts in the collections of museums and scientific institutions in the geographical area of Berlin. The report, commissioned by the Berlin Senate, is the first systematic survey of the provenance of human remains from colonial contexts in Berlin’s institutions. Why – given the history – are these human remains still here? Where is the systematic effort to repatriate them and return them to their families and communities of origin?
