Due to the sensitivity of the sub- jects discussed, the American experts who were being consid- ered for posts in the incoming administration decided against speaking at the EUWF. This report represents a summary of the discussions held over the course of two days. Some of the key debates focused on Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Russia, and Global Governance. The re- port also includes summaries of the discussions of the three working groups (written respectively by EUISS Research Fel- lows Sabine Fischer, Jean Pascal Zanders and Esra Bulut): ‘Man- aging Unresolved Conflicts in Europe: Lessons from Georgia’, ‘Non-proliferation and arms control’, and ‘The Middle East: The Regional Dimension of the Arab-Israeli Question.’ We have re- frained from attributing particular views and ideas expressed during the event to individual speakers, but the programme and the list of participants are attached as an appendix at the end of the report.

    Deutscher Bundestag Drucksache 14/3426 14. Wahlperiode 17. 05. 2000 Kleine Anfrage der Abgeordneten Hans-Michael Goldmann, Horst Friedrich (Bayreuth), Rainer Funke, Dr. Karlheinz Guttmacher, Hildebrecht Braun (Augsburg), Rainer Brüderle, Ernst Burgbacher, Jörg van Essen, Ulrich Heinrich, Walter Hirche, Birgit Homburger, Dr. Werner Hoyer, Jürgen Koppelin, Dirk Niebel, Dr. Edzard Schmidt-Jortzig, Gerhard Schüßler, Dr. Hermann Otto Solms, Carl-Ludwig Thiele, Dr. Wolfgang Gerhardt und der Fraktion der F.D.P. Erste Auswirkungen der Tonnagesteuer Die noch in der vergangenen Wahlperiode verabschiedete Besteuerung von Seeschiffen nach der Tragfähigkeit (Tonnagesteuer) wurde durch den Durch- führungserlass des Bundesministeriums der Finanzen im Jahre 1999 handhab- bar gemacht. Damit wurde eine langjährige Forderung der deutschen Reeder- schaft erfüllt. Es war und ist Sinn und Zweck der Tonnagesteuer, den Seeschifffahrtsstandort Deutschland international wettbewerbsfähig zu halten und so einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Stärkung des maritimen Wirtschaftsnet- zes zu leisten. Insbesondere sollte die Tonnagesteuer die Tendenz zum Ausflag- gen aus den deutschen Schiffsregistern stoppen. Die Auswirkungen der Tonna- gesteuer sind in diesem Sinne für die maritime Verbundwirtschaft von großer Bedeutung. Wir fragen deshalb die Bundesregierung: 1. Wie viele Schiffe haben seit Einführung der Tonnagesteuer, wie viele seit Veröffentlichung des Einführungserlasses für die Tonnagesteuer optiert? 2. Erwartet die Bundesregierung weitere Entscheidungen zu Gunsten der Ton- nagebesteuerung aus dem Bestand oder aus dem Neubau? 3. Wie hat sich der Schiffsbestand des deutschen Erst- und Zweitregisters seit Einführung der Tonnagesteuer entwickelt? 4. Kann die Bundesregierung seit der Einführung der Tonnagebesteuerung Auswirkungen auf die Schiffsfinanzierung und Eignerstruktur feststellen, und wenn ja, mit welcher Tendenz? 5. Sieht die Bundesregierung in den steuerlichen Regelungen zur Tonnagebe- steuerung nach ersten Erfahrung Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten? 6.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1. It is important to note that whilst the international context of German foreign policy changed virtually overnight with the end of the Cold War, the content of German foreign policy was resistant to wholesale changes. To this end Eberwein and Kaiser state, ‘To a certain extent, when Germany was unified and attained full sovereignty, its position in international politics changed overnight’, in Eberwein, W.-D. and Kaiser, K. (eds) (2001), p. 3, Germany’s New Foreign Policy: Decision-making in an Interdependent World (Basingstoke: Palgrave). Banchoff contends that, ‘The collapse of the Soviet bloc and reunifi- cation transformed the context of German foreign policy’ in Banchoff, T. (1999), p. 131, The German Problem Transformed: Institutions, Politics and Foreign Policy, 1945–1995 (Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press). 2. Ladrech, R.
