DER SPIEGEL Jahrgang 1999 Heft 52 Werbeseite Werbeseite Werbeseite Werbeseite DAS DEUTSCHE NACHRICHTEN-MAGAZIN Hausmitteilung 27. Dezember 1999 Betr.: Titel, SPIEGELreporter, Augstein um Jahresende erscheint der SPIEGEL in ungewöhnlicher Form. Geplant war Zein Titel zum bevorstehenden Jahrtausendwechsel (der genau genommen ja erst am 31.12.2000 ist) mit großen Geschichten zu den wichtigen Fragen von Gegenwart und Zukunft. Den vorderen Teil des Heftes sollte die aktuelle Berichterstattung fül- len – auch die Affäre Kohl gehörte dazu. Doch als Mitte vergangener Woche der end- gültige Niedergang des CDU-Patriarchen offenkundig wurde, stand fest: Auf den Ti- tel muss Kohl.Weil das Millennium-Stück schon im Andruck war, gibt es diesmal also zwei Titel. „Kohls zweiter Sturz – Abschied mit Schimpf und Schande“ beschreibt, wie der „ewige Kanzler“ mit der Offenlegung seiner schwarzen Kassen vom Sockel gestoßen wurde – jetzt auch von der eigenen Partei. Im Rückblick erscheinen 16 Jah- re Kohl diskreditiert: die „Bimbes-Republik“. „Wenn mir vor einem Jahr jemand ge- sagt hätte, dass ich mich Ende 1999 mit dieser Affäre beschäftigen muss, dann hätte ich gesagt: Glaub ich nicht“, sagt Kohl-Nachfolger Gerhard Schröder im SPIEGEL. Mit den Redakteuren Stefan Aust, Jür- gen Leinemann und Gerhard Spörl sprach Schröder über das Vertrauen in die Politik und über Deutschlands künftigen Standort in der Europäi- schen Union. Der Blick zurück und vor allem nach vorn leitet den zweiten, ursprüngli- chen Titel des SPIEGEL – denn egal, ob das Millennium jetzt zu Ende geht oder nicht: Im Bewusstsein der M. URBAN meisten Menschen findet ein Epo- Spörl, Aust, Schröder, Leinemann chenwechsel statt. Wie die Zukunft von Arbeit, Kultur, Politik und Wirtschaft aussehen könnte, schildern SPIEGEL- Redakteure und Autoren. „Was bleibt, was kommt“ ist eine Frage, die uns nicht nur diese Woche beschäftigen wird. Deshalb beschreibt das neue Magazin SPIEGELreporter seit Oktober jeden Monat in Reportagen und Essays mutige Pioniere, Projekte und Ideen, die die Welt ver- ändern. Die Titelstory der Januar-Ausgabe („Die modernen Abenteurer“) erzählt, warum gerade Erfolgsmenschen mit dem Schicksal spielen, warum Unternehmer wie Jürgen Schrempp und Hubert Burda das Abenteuer suchen und warum junge Deutsche als Ärzte in den Krieg ziehen oder sich als Firmen- gründer in Asien durchschlagen. SPIEGELreporter ist von Dienstag an im Handel. iel Ehre für SPIEGEL-Herausgeber Rudolf Augstein: Er ist „Journalist des VJahrhunderts“. Das Frankfurter „MediumMagazin“ hat 100 leitende Kollegen deutscher Zeitungen, Zeitschriften und elektronischer Medien gefragt, wer diesen Titel wohl tragen dürfe. Eine deutliche Mehrheit entschied sich für Augstein – vor dem „rasenden Reporter“ Egon Erwin Kisch und den Watergate- Enthüllern Bob Woodward und Carl Bernstein. Warum Augstein? „Weil er über fünf Jahrzehnte seiner Vision vom kritischen Journalismus treu ge- blieben ist“, so die Begründung der Juroren. Des Lobes nicht genug: Der Branchendienst „Kress Re- port“ ernannte Augstein dieser Tage auch noch zum M. ZUCHT / DER SPIEGEL „Verleger des Jahrhunderts“.

  • Der Spiegel-Confirmation from the East by Brian Crozier 1993
    "Der Spiegel: Confirmation from the East" Counter Culture Contribution by Brian Crozier I WELCOME Sir James Goldsmith's offer of hospitality in the pages of COUNTER CULTURE to bring fresh news on a struggle in which we were both involved. On the attacking side was Herr Rudolf Augstein, publisher of the German news magazine, Der Spiegel; on the defending side was Jimmy. My own involvement was twofold: I provided him with the explosive information that drew fire from Augstein, and I co-ordinated a truly massive international research campaign that caused Augstein, nearly four years later, to call off his libel suit against Jimmy.1 History moves fast these days. The collapse of communism in the ex-Soviet Union and eastern Europe has loosened tongues and opened archives. The struggle I mentioned took place between January 1981 and October 1984. The past two years have brought revelations and confessions that further vindicate the line we took a decade ago. What did Jimmy Goldsmith say, in 1981, that roused Augstein to take legal action? The Media Committee of the House of Commons had invited Sir James to deliver an address on 'Subversion in the Media'. Having read a reference to the 'Spiegel affair' of 1962 in an interview with the late Franz Josef Strauss in his own news magazine of that period, NOW!, he wanted to know more. I was the interviewer. Today's readers, even in Germany, may not automatically react to the sight or sound of the' Spiegel affair', but in its day, this was a major political scandal, which seriously damaged the political career of Franz Josef Strauss, the then West German Defence Minister.

  • Central Europe
    Central Europe West Germany FOREIGN POLICY wTHEN CHANCELLOR Ludwig Erhard's coalition government sud- denly collapsed in October 1966, none of the Federal Republic's major for- eign policy goals, such as the reunification of Germany and the improvement of relations with its Eastern neighbors, with France, NATO, the Arab coun- tries, and with the new African nations had as yet been achieved. Relations with the United States What actually brought the political and economic crisis into the open and hastened Erhard's downfall was that he returned empty-handed from his Sep- tember visit to President Lyndon B. Johnson. Erhard appealed to Johnson for an extension of the date when payment of $3 billion was due for military equipment which West Germany had bought from the United States to bal- ance dollar expenses for keeping American troops in West Germany. (By the end of 1966, Germany paid DM2.9 billion of the total DM5.4 billion, provided in the agreements between the United States government and the Germans late in 1965. The remaining DM2.5 billion were to be paid in 1967.) During these talks Erhard also expressed his government's wish that American troops in West Germany remain at their present strength. Al- though Erhard's reception in Washington and Texas was friendly, he gained no major concessions. Late in October the United States and the United Kingdom began talks with the Federal Republic on major economic and military problems. Relations with France When Erhard visited France in February, President Charles de Gaulle gave reassurances that France would not recognize the East German regime, that he would advocate the cause of Germany in Moscow, and that he would 349 350 / AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK, 1967 approve intensified political and cultural cooperation between the six Com- mon Market powers—France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg.

François Mitterrand speaks of a ‘battle that will be harder than I had expected’ when talking about the referendum that he himself has set for 20 September. His Prime Minister, Pierre Bérégovoy, is of the opinion that: A ‘no’ would lead to a division between France and Germany. The Germans would then regain their autonomy and, in future, look more to the East than to the West. The former Prime Minister, Michel Rocard, is quite blatant in immediately bringing up the heavy artillery: We must not make 20 September into another political Munich. He also feels obliged to protect Germany from ‘its demons’, while the Minister for Humanitarian Affairs, Bernard Kouchner, suggests that Helmut Kohl’s generation will be the last pro-European one in Germany, because it will be succeeded by the Rostock skinheads.

Manufacture has acquired new and advanced materials, and daily contrives new inventions and devises new products. Biotechnology is increasing food production with genetically altered plants and animals, and soon, meat not taken from butchered animals but grown from stem cells. Production is no longer bounded by the limitations of human labor; electrical and nuclear energy power the machines and robots shape materials and assemble cars, jet airplanes, computers, and soon everything. Nanotechnology is beginning to assemble molecules atom by atom, on the way to manufacture computer circuitry out of sand, gold out of lead, even living cells out of atoms. We see ourselves beginning an essentially new kind of human existence, acquiring a new nature— postevolutionary, transhuman. We are awed, fascinated, but also bewildered by the prospect with an abundance beyond all our needs and desires; how shall we deal with it? We are watching extraordinary advances in biotechnology, which promise not only to cure and prevent diseases and correct defects, but, with pharmaceuticals, gene therapy and nanotechnology, to endow our bodies and our minds with greater and also new capacities.
