  • 140122 20 Years of German Rail Reform Summary En
    20 years of German rail reform and Deutsche Bahn AG Achievements and challenges 20 years of German rail reform and Deutsche Bahn AG Achievements and challenges Andreas Schwilling, Dr. Stephan Bunge, Roland Berger Strategy Consultants The year 20 4 will be the twentieth anniversary of the German rail reform and the foundation of Deutsche Bahn AG. Deutsche Bahn AG took this opportunity to commission Roland Berger Strategy Consultants with a study on the development of the German railmarket. Summary In 993, several factors increased pressure on politicians to act and reach a cross- party consensus on the introduction of a rail reform. From 950 to 990, Deutsche Bundesbahn's share in the intermodal market had decreased markedly, from 3,- to .- in passenger transport and from 5.- to 2 - in freight transport. /ith the opening up of the borders Deutsche Reichsbahn0s rail traffic volumes began to drop drastically, too. The earnings situation of both Bundesbahn and Reichsbahn was desperate. According to the Bundesbahn government commission, the public financing re1uirement for the two railways would have increased from D2 2, billion in 99 to D2 .4 billion in 2000, presenting a huge budget risk. Attempts at introducing a rail reform up to this point had achieved very little success. Both railways were paralysed by influence e3erted in the political arena and by the principles of budget law, civil service law and public service law. In the course of reunification, the Bundesbahn and the Reichsbahn had to be merged. The 4nification Treaty provided for a ma5ority of the Reichbahn's workforce being granted civil service status by 6anuary 994, which increased the time pressure.

  • A City Amputated, a Community Regenerated: Munich During and After the Allied Air War, 1939 to 1948
    A CITY AMPUTATED, A COMMUNITY REGENERATED: MUNICH DURING AND AFTER THE ALLIED AIR WAR, 1939 TO 1948 By Thomas J. Arnold Submitted to the graduate degree program in History and the Graduate Faculty in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy _________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Karl Brooks _________________________________ Dr. Donald Worster _________________________________ Dr. Nathan Wood _________________________________ Dr. Roberta Pergher _________________________________ Dr. Frank Baron Date Defended: April 11, 2012 The Dissertation Committee for Thomas J. Arnold certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: A CITY AMPUTATED, A COMMUNITY REGENERATED: MUNICH DURING AND AFTER THE ALLIED AIR WAR, 1939 TO 1948 _________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Karl Brooks Date Approved: April 11, 2012 ii Abstract Cities do not exist in isolation. They sum up a complex web of connections between people and natural resources, knit together by transport systems. Cities are also connected to other cities, regions, and countries. Like an organism cut off from its food, a city amputated from its vital connections to natural resources--food and fuel--can suffer and even die. This study argues these connections and the transport system that bind them together make a city work. Warfare, especially strategic bombing, disrupts these connections, having huge impacts on citizens’ lives. Urbanites are forced to confront their dependence on natural resources and vulnerability to natural forces such as weather. The subject of this study, Munich, experienced these changes both during and after WWII. Between 1939 and 1948, the city descended from thriving cultural metropole to isolated, burned-out wreck, then slowly rallied to become a city on the mend.

Independence: The Day of German Unity commemorates the official reunification of the democratic Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany) and the communist German Democratic Republic (East Germany) on October 3, 1990. The holiday is the equivalent of an independence celebration because it marks the end of the country’s Cold War–driven division into two separate states. Public Holidays: Official holidays are New Year’s (January 1), Good Friday/Easter Monday (variable dates in March or April), May Day (May 1), Ascension Day (variable date in April or May), Pentecost (variable date in April or May), Day of German Unity (October 3), and Christmas/Boxing Day (December 25–26).

Unification brought together a people separated for more than four decades by the division of Europe into two hostile blocs in the aftermath of World War II.
