    OUTPOST OF FREEDOM: A GERMAN-AMERICAN NETWORK’S CAMPAIGN TO BRING COLD WAR DEMOCRACY TO WEST BERLIN, 1933-72 Scott H. Krause A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Konrad H. Jarausch Christopher R. Browning Klaus W. Larres Susan Dabney Pennybacker Donald M. Reid Benjamin Waterhouse © 2015 Scott H. Krause ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Scott H. Krause: Outpost of Freedom: A German-American Network’s Campaign to bring Cold War Democracy to West Berlin, 1933-66 (under the direction of Konrad H. Jarausch) This study explores Berlin’s sudden transformation from the capital of Nazi Germany to bastion of democracy in the Cold War. This project has unearthed how this remarkable development resulted from a transatlantic campaign by liberal American occupation officials, and returned émigrés, or remigrés, of the Marxist Social Democratic Party (SPD). This informal network derived from members of “Neu Beginnen” in American exile. Concentrated in wartime Manhattan, their identity as German socialists remained remarkably durable despite the Nazi persecution they faced and their often-Jewish background. Through their experiences in New Deal America, these self-professed “revolutionary socialists” came to emphasize “anti- totalitarianism,” making them suspicious of Stalinism. Serving in the OSS, leftists such as Hans Hirschfeld forged friendships with American left-wing liberals. These experiences connected a wider network of remigrés and occupiers by forming an epistemic community in postwar Berlin. They recast Berlin’s ruins as “Outpost of Freedom” in the Cold War.

  • Aus Politik Und Zeitgeschichte 50/2009 · 7
    APuZAus Politik und Zeitgeschichte 50/2009 · 7. Dezember 2009 Frauen in Politik und Medien Christina Holtz-Bacha Politikerinnen-Bilder im internationalen Vergleich Birgit Meyer „Nachts, wenn der Generalsekretär weint“ Isabelle Kürschner Frauen in den Parteien Uta Kletzing Wege und Erfahrungen von Kommunalpolitikerinnen Katja Glaesner Angela Merkel – mit „Soft Skills“ zum Erfolg? Reinhard Mohr Moderieren ist alles: Frauen im Polittalk Beilage zur Wochenzeitung Das Parlament Editorial Frauen in hohen und höchsten politischen und gesellschaftli- chen Ämtern sind keine Besonderheit mehr: Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel ist im September 2009 im Amt bestätigt worden, vier weitere Frauen gehören ihrem Kabinett an, und mit Margot Käßmann ist seit Kurzem erstmals eine Frau Ratsvorsitzende der Evangelischen Kirche in Deutschland. Doch gleichzeitig gilt auch: Frauen sind in der Politik nach wie vor unterrepräsentiert. Während im Bundestag seit mehreren Legislaturen immerhin etwa jeder dritte Sitz von einer Frau eingenommen wird, beträgt der Frauenanteil auf kommunaler Ebene durchschnittlich nur 25 Prozent. Politisch ambitionierte Frauen müssen sich noch immer ge- schlechterspezifischer Klischees erwehren, die sich in der Gesell- schaft und der massenmedialen Berichterstattung hartnäckig hal- ten. Das Geschlecht und die damit vermeintlich verbundenen Ei- genschaften spielen in der Darstellung von Politikerinnen immer wieder eine große Rolle. Nur allzu häufig gleitet diese Betrach- tungsweise in die unterschwellig gestellte Frage ab: „Kann die das?“ Sobald sie in der „Männerwelt“ Politik erfolgreich sind, kann es Frauen dagegen passieren, dass ihnen die Weiblichkeit abgesprochen wird. So oder so wird ein künstlicher Widerspruch zwischen Weib- lichkeit und Politik bzw. politischer Kompetenz konstruiert. Auch Angela Merkel ist in ihrer Karriere häufig mit derartigen Gemeinplätzen konfrontiert worden.

  • In Sight but out of Mind: the Construction of Memory at Three Once Stigmatized Sites in Berlin and Poznań
    IN SIGHT BUT OUT OF MIND: THE CONSTRUCTION OF MEMORY AT THREE ONCE STIGMATIZED SITES IN BERLIN AND POZNAŃ By Stephen Paul Naumann A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy German Studies 2012 ABSTRACT IN SIGHT BUT OUT OF MIND: THE CONSTRUCTION OF MEMORY AT THREE ONCE STIGMATIZED SITES IN BERLIN AND POZNAŃ By Stephen Paul Naumann This study explores cultural identity reflected in the urban landscape at three structures formerly identified with National Socialism: Berlin’s Olympiastadion (Olympic Stadium) and Siegessäule (Victory Column), and Poznań’s Zamek cesarski (formerly Kaiserschloss – or Imperial Castle). My analysis is based on local and state archival work, as well as the examination of literary, visual and media sources in both Germany and Poland. I conclude that after the structures were first used to project meaning from Cold War tropes, both tourism and the enhancement of local identity in the face of European and global influences eventually contributed to the shift in meaning at these spaces in both cities. Poznań’s Zamek cesarski, a palace first commissioned by German Kaiser Wilhelm II, became, with its dedication in 1910, a monument to Prussian-German imperialism in this multi- ethnic Polish-German-Jewish city. Rededicated by the new Polish republic after World War I, the structure was later remodeled by the Nazis for Hitler’s use. One of their most prominent additions is still visible today: the Führerbalkon, a balcony extending off the front of the building for Hitler to watch military parades.
