No longer a source of unreflective nostalgia for reactionaries, it is now being represented as a more nuanced entity that reflects the complexities of socialist society. The black and white narratives that shaped cultural memory of the GDR during the first fifteen years after the Wende have largely been replaced by more complicated tones of grey.

  • The Economics of East and West German Cars
    The Economics of East and West German Cars Free Market and Command economies produce and distribute goods & services using vastly different methods. Prior to reading the documents, consider the following: a. What is the significance of car production for individuals and society? ​ ​ b. What is the significance of car ownership for individuals and society? ​ ​ c. How are cars distributed in society? In other words, who makes decisions about pricing ​ ​ and allocation of this good within society? Review and annotate the documents. Consider each document for its purpose, context, point of view and potential audience. What clues do the documents provide about life in East and West Germany, Cold War economic systems, and current economic issues? Use the documents to evaluate the outcomes associated with command and free market ​ economies. Your response should include... ​ ● A clear, well-stated claim/argument in response to the prompt. ● At least two well-developed body paragraphs in support of your claim. ● Analysis of at least seven documents to support your argument. ​ ​ West: Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) East: German Democratic Republic (GDR) 1 Document 1: “How German cars beat British motors - and kept going.” BBC August, 2013 ​ ​ In August 1945 the British Army sent a major called Ivan Hirst to take control of the giant Volkswagen plant in Wolfsburg, which had been built under the Nazis to produce 'people's cars' for the German masses. Ignoring his sceptical superiors, Hirst could see the potential amid the shattered debris of the Wolfsburg factory. Rebuilding Volkswagen, he thought, would be a step towards rehabilitating Germany as a prosperous, peaceful European ally.

  • Im Wartburg Von Ost Nach West
    Im Wartburg von Ost nach West Einst Statussymbol des Arbeiter- und Bauernstaates, heute liebenswerter Gast auf Oldie-Treffen – und fit ist er auch noch Von Christoph Gajda Dröhnend schiebt sich die schöne neu asphaltierte Straße unter die Räder, das Summen des stets mitlaufenden Lüfterrades vor dem Kühler steigert sich in ein mitleidiges Heulen und der Dreizylinder- Zweitaktmotor will erst durch seine Drehmomententfaltung im hohen Drehzahlbereich beweisen, dass er in der Lage ist, mich in die viel zu weichen Sitze zu drücken. Gut dass es geradeaus geht, denn Seitenhalt fehlt dem Gestühl gänzlich. Gute Laune dennoch, denn die Technik funktioniert ausnahmsweise pannenfrei und zuverlässig. Einzig die Tatsache dass man noch über tausend Kilometer auszuhalten hat, könnte das perfekte Feeling jetzt noch trüben. Ja, der Balaton ist weit… Doch nix mit Balaton. Von wegen Urlaubsreise mit fernem Ziel und Erholung in Aussicht, wobei der Weg zum Ziel gehört, oder besser gesagt, dass Auto und Fahrer gesund am Ziel ankommen. Die Leute müssen früher wohl doch härter gewesen sein. Für mich heißt es nur, einmal quer durch Deutschland. Von Anhalt, über den Südharz, Thüringen, Hessen ins Rhein-Main-Gebiet. Moment mal! Daran wäre früher überhaupt nicht zu denken gewesen, zumindest nicht in Richtung Ost-West. Von daher bildet meine Reise doch eine kleine Besonderheit. Aus heutiger Sicht betrachtet sogar umso mehr, wenn man bedenkt, dass ich völlig auf Autobahnen verzichte und nach guter alter Sitte ohne Navi die Landstriche durchquere, an deren Straßen sich die wichtigsten Städte wie Perlen an einer Kette aneinander reihen. Der Wagen Wartburg TOURIST, wie sich die Vollheckvariante (auch Kombi genannt) des Wartburg ab 1968 nannte: ein Statussymbol in der DDR.
