"Stereotypisch Deutsch": An Examination of Stereotypes of Germans and the Effects in the Business Environment Abstract Stereotypes can be seen as a tool to understand why a person or group of people behave the way they do. These stereotypes adapt over time as culture and cultural perceptions change. The purpose of this research is to analyze what stereotypes Americans have held of Germans over the years, starting in 1940, a couple years before the United States entered World War II, then the Cold War Era between 1947 and 1990, through today. The purpose of these time frames is to see how Americans viewed Germans just prior to entering the war, how the war may have changed those views, what happened to those views after the war was over, and what has become of those views since the fall of the Berlin Wall leading to today.

Sci. 12 (2003) 307–318 Between brains and breasts—women scientists in fiction film: on the marginalization and sexualization of scientific competence Eva Flicker The popular media, film, cinema and television, contribute to the public’s general understanding of science. This article focuses on the portrayal of female scientists and the reception of such depictions within the general understanding. The article questions: the images depicted; their relation to scientific reality; how such depictions have changed over time (1929–1997); and their significance within the broader social context. 1. Introduction Most people have never and will never personally meet a scientist. Yet, at the same time, there is a great deal of interest in new knowledge arising from scientific research, especially from the natural sciences. Since the 1940s and 1950s, especially the military use and misuse of scientific knowledge (for example, the atomic bomb), there has been widespread skepticism about science.

Dr. Indiana “Indy” Jones (Harrison Ford) is the title character of a popular franchise developed by film school friends George Lucas and Steven Spielberg. The series was built primarily on three films: Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984), and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989). After a two-decade absence from the big screen, Jones returned in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008). In terms of content, theme, and style, the Indiana Jones movies demonstrate nostalgia for times of high adventure and excitement. The original trilogy takes place before World War II, mimicking the action-packed tone of movies of the day. Set in 1936, Raiders sees archaeologist Jones pressed by the U.S.
