New Germany Central
New Germany Property Value Decreases Integration Newbury road where 25 flats /white house were build Berkshire road signaling the Increases beginning of ‘Buffer Strip’ ‘The World’ Integration 1 Regarding the perimeters of New Germany, respondents mentioned that Berkshire road separates New Germany and Claremont (Township). Berkshire, Habborth and Rose roads, which appear outside of the community boundaries in the map above are also considered as part of New Germany by residents. The map does not cover the industrial area which includes New Germany Primary School. When asked about the map, one respondent stated that “boundaries are changed over time”. The information gathered from all interviews show that people have their own impressions of what New Germany is and where its boundaries lie. In general, people define a place as part of New Germany if it utilizes most of the services offered in New Germany. HISTORY New Germany was developed by German settlers. According to some respondents, New Germany was started by Reverend Posselt when he launched a Lutheran Church missionary in the area in 1848. Nevertheless, other sources suggest that New Germany was founded by Jonas Bergtheil around the same time. The settlers were mostly impoverished Germans who just arrived looking for jobs since conditions were difficult in Germany. These settlers bought the land to plant cotton but later used it for vegetables as it was not suitable for cotton. New Germany was later bought for use as a golf course estate. As time progressed, houses were developed on that land and the area then became an entry point into the housing market for many white people.

Geometric Proportioning Strategies in Gothic Architectural Design Robert Bork*
$UFKLWHFWXUDO Bork, R 2014 Dynamic Unfolding and the Conventions of Procedure: Geometric +LVWRULHV Proportioning Strategies in Gothic Architectural Design. Architectural Histories, 2(1): 14, pp. 1-20, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5334/ah.bq RESEARCH ARTICLE Dynamic Unfolding and the Conventions of Procedure: Geometric Proportioning Strategies in Gothic Architectural Design Robert Bork* This essay explores the proportioning strategies used by Gothic architects. It argues that Gothic design practice involved conventions of procedure, governing the dynamic unfolding of successive geometrical steps. Because this procedure proves difficult to capture in words, and because it produces forms with a qualitatively different kind of architectural order than the more familiar conventions of classical design, which govern the proportions of the final building rather than the logic of the steps used in creating it, Gothic design practice has been widely misunderstood since the Renaissance. Although some authors in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries attempted to sympathetically explain Gothic geometry, much of this work has been dismissed as unreliable, especially in the influential work of Konrad Hecht. This essay seeks to put the study of Gothic proportion onto a new and firmer foundation, by using computer-aided design software to analyze the geometry of carefully measured buildings and original design drawings. Examples under consideration include the parish church towers of Ulm and Freiburg, and the cross sections of the cathedrals of Reims, Prague, and Clermont-Ferrand, and of the Cistercian church at Altenberg. Introduction of historic monuments to be studied with new rigor. It is Discussion of proportion has a curiously vexed status in finally becoming possible, therefore, to speak with reason- the literature on Gothic architecture.

Germany: a Global Miracle and a European Challenge
GLOBAL ECONOMY & DEVELOPMENT WORKING PAPER 62 | MAY 2013 Global Economy and Development at BROOKINGS GERMANY: A GLOBAL MIRACLE AND A EUROPEAN CHALLENGE Carlo Bastasin Global Economy and Development at BROOKINGS Carlo Bastasin is a visiting fellow in the Global Economy and Development and Foreign Policy pro- grams at Brookings. A preliminary and shorter version of this study was published in "Italia al Bivio - Riforme o Declino, la lezione dei paesi di successo" by Paolazzi, Sylos-Labini, ed. LUISS University Press. This paper was prepared within the framework of “A Growth Strategy for Europe” research project conducted by the Brookings Global Economy and Development program. Abstract: The excellent performance of the German economy over the past decade has drawn increasing interest across Europe for the kind of structural reforms that have relaunched the German model. Through those reforms, in fact, Germany has become one of the countries that benefit most from global economic integration. As such, Germany has become a reference model for the possibility of a thriving Europe in the global age. However, the same factors that have contributed to the German "global miracle" - the accumulation of savings and gains in competitiveness - are also a "European problem". In fact they contributed to originate the euro crisis and rep- resent elements of danger to the future survival of the euro area. Since the economic success of Germany has translated also into political influence, the other European countries are required to align their economic and social models to the German one. But can they do it? Are structural reforms all that are required? This study shows that the German success depended only in part on the vast array of structural reforms undertaken by German governments in the twenty-first century.
