history
The academy opened on October 10, 1987. Its president was the economist Horst Albach . The academy was not divided into classes, but into seven working groups. After the Unification Treaty in 1990 provided for a state law regulation for the continued existence of the learned society of the Academy of Sciences of the GDR , the AWB was dissolved again at the end of 1990 (individual work projects were continued until 1993).
The Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities counts the AWB together with the Prussian Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Sciences of the GDR that emerged from it as one of its predecessor institutions.
