Arbeit ist das halbe Leben, und ohne Gesundheit ist alles nichts, heißt es. Gesundheit ist aber nicht stetig einfach da, sie will täglich im Zusammenspiel von Anforderungen und Ressourcen neu gefunden werden. Wie dieser Balanceakt gelingt, und welche Verhältnisse darauf einwirken, ist Gegenstand dieses Buches. Nach einem breiten Überblick über Erklärungsansätze zum Entstehen von Gesundheit wird in einer wissenschaftlich fundierten Untersuchung ein modifiziertes Anforderungs-Kontroll-Unterstützungsmodell getestet: Wie wirken Gruppenzusammenhalt, Arbeitsbelastung und Handlungsspielräume auf die körperliche Gesundheit? Wie kommt es zu negativ wirkenden Stressoren? Welche Rolle spielen Vertrauen, soziales Kapital und soziale Unterstützung bei ihrer Bewältigung? Wie werden Zielvereinbarungen, Kommunikationsabläufe und emotionale Anpassungsprozesse gesundheitswirksam? Was bedeutet dies alles für das Betriebliche Gesundheitsmanagement? In einem abschließenden Überblick werden die langfristigen gesundheits- und arbeitsbezogenen Wechselwirkungen zwischen Mensch, Organisation, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft umrissen. Zusammenfassung und Ausblick beschreiben, wie in Zukunft, eine umfassendere Vorstellung betrieblicher Salutogenese Elemente sozialer und organisationaler Nachhaltigkeit systematisch aufgreifen kann.

When the war was over in 1945, Germany was a country with no government, little functioning infrastructure, millions of refugees and homeless people, and huge foreign armies living largely off the land. Large parts of the country were covered in rubble, with no clean drinking water, electricity, or gas. Hospitals overflowed with patients, but were short of beds, medicines, and medical personnel. In these conditions, the potential for epidemics and public health disasters was severe. This is a study of how the four occupiers-Britain, France, the Soviet Union, and the United States-attempted to keep their own troops and the ex-enemy population alive. While the war was still being fought, German public health was a secondary consideration for them, an unaffordable and undeserved luxury. But once fighting ceased and the occupation began, it rapidly turned into a urgent priority. Public health was now recognized as an indispensable component of creating order, keeping the population governable, and facilitating the reconstruction of German society. But they faced a number of insoluble problems in the process: Which Germans could be trusted to work with the occupiers, and how were they to be identified? Who could be tolerated because of a lack of alternatives? How, if at all, could former Nazis be reformed and reintegrated into German society? What was the purpose of the occupation anyway? This is the first carefully researched comparison of the four occupation zones which looks at the occupation through the prism of public health, an essential service fundamentally shaped by political and economic criteria, and which in turn was to determine the success or failure of the occupation.
