Abstract

More than two decades of deconstruction, renovation, and reconstruction have left the urban environments in the former German Democratic Republic completely transformed. This volume considers the changing urban landscapes in the former East - and how the filling of previous absences and the absence of previous presence - creates the cultural landscape of modern unified Germany. This broadens our understanding of this transformation by examining often-neglected cities, spaces, or structures, and historical narration and preservation.

Abstract

By many measures, the German Democratic Republic (GDR) had the strongest economy in the Eastern bloc and was one of the most important industrial nations worldwide. Nonetheless, the economic history of the GDR has been primarily discussed as a failure when compared with the economic success of the Federal Republic and is often cited as one of the pre-eminent examples of central planning's deficiencies. This volume analyzes both the successes and failures of the East German economy. The contributors consider the economic history of East Germany within its broader political, cultural and social contexts. Rather than limit their perspective to the period of the GDR's existence, the essays additionally consider the decades before 1945 and the post-1990 era. Contributors also trace the present and future of the East German economy and suggest possible outcomes.

Abstract

Das "andere Deutschland" ist in Frankreich Mythos und Konzept in einem. Es ist der Versuch einer philosophischen Trennung zwischen der Kulturnation und dem gefürchteten militärischen Gegner. Die deutsche Teilung von 1949 schuf erstmalig eine geografisch-politische Entsprechung zur tief im kollektiven französischen Bewusstsein verankerten Theorie der "deux Allemagne", der die Idee des "anderen Deutschlands" entlehnt ist. Und der zweite deutsche Staat, die DDR, von der man in Frankreich lange Zeit außer dem Theater Brechts nicht viel kannte, bot eine ideale Projektionsfläche für Vorstellungen von einem besseren Deutschland. Die Suche nach dem "anderen Deutschland" erhielt damit ein scheinbar reales Ziel für nicht wenige germanophile Franzosen, die zahlreiche Kontakte zu wirtschaftlichen, kulturellen und politischen Eliten in der DDR pflegten.Christian Wenkel beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, warum gerade Frankreich derart intensive Beziehungen zur DDR unterhielt und ob es ein spezifisch französisches Interesse für die DDR gab. Auf breiter Quellenbasis erläutert er nicht nur grundlegende Besonderheiten der französisch-ostdeutschen Beziehungen, sondern auch die Genese und Entwicklung von Kontakten auf wirtschaftlicher, kultureller, parlamentarischer und politischer Ebene.
