  • Ernst Reuter
    Ernst Reuter Militante socialista fin dal 1912, durante il primo conflitto mondiale fu fatto prigioniero dai russi. Folgorato dalla rivoluzione bolscevica, aderì al comunismo e fu nominato commissario del popolo per la Repubblica tedesca del Volga. Rientrato in Germania nel 1918, con la piena fiducia dei russi assunse l'incarico di segretario generale del KPD, partito comunista tedesco. Dopo la sua espulsione dal partito comunista per ordine di Mosca nel 1922 (dovuta al suo atteggiamento critico nei confronti dell’egemonia sovietica nella Terza Internazionale), Reuter aderì al partito socialdemocratico e durante la Repubblica di Weimar fu membro del Consiglio municipale di Berlino, sindaco di Magdeburgo e deputato al Reichstag. Odiato dai sovietici, non fu meno odiato dai nazisti e dovette lasciare la Germania dopo l’avvento di Hitler al potere e trovare riparo prima in Inghilterra, poi in Turchia. Al suo ritorno in patria, dopo il 1945, riorganizzò il Partito Socialdemocratico e fu (nominalmente dal giugno 1947, ma di fatto dal dicembre 1948) borgomastro dei tre settori occidentali che formavano la Berlino ovest. Durante il blocco di Berlino, fu animatore della resistenza dei suoi concittadini. Prima di dare il via al Ponte aereo, il generale americano Lucius Clay volle essere certo che i berlinesi avrebbero accettato di affrontare le molte difficoltà di una operazione mai prima sperimentata su quella scala. Nel libro pubblicato da Mondadori nel 1998 (Berlino storia di una metropoli), Alexandra Richie ricorda che Clay convocò Reuter nel suo ufficio e gli chiese quale sarebbe stato l’atteggiamento dei berlinesi; il borgomastro rispose che la posizione dei suoi concittadini era fuori discussione: «Si sarebbero impegnati per la propria libertà e avrebbero accettato con riconoscenza qualsiasi aiuto fosse stato loro offerto».

  • Dem Berliner Ehrenbürger Richard Von Weizsäcker Zum Hundertsten
    Dem Berliner Ehrenbürger Richard von Weizsäcker zum Hundertsten Entgegen der Einbahnstraße – von Bonn nach Berlin Einen Pastor hatte Berlin mit Heinrich Albertz bereits als Regierenden Bürgermeister erlebt, wenn auch für die SPD und nur von Dezember 1966 bis September 1967. Der Überraschungsgast, der auf Einladung von Peter Lorenz und mit Empfehlungen von Helmut Kohl im September 1978 nach Berlin kommt, um sich für die CDU um dieses Amt zu bewerben, ist zum Bleiben entschlossen. Richard von Weizsäcker, 1964 Präsident des Evangelischen Kirchentages, Mitverfasser der Denkschrift der Evangelischen Kirche „Zur Lage der Vertriebenen und dem Verhältnis des deutschen Volkes zu seinen östlichen Nachbarn“, seit 1969 Mitglied des Bundestages, Anfang der siebziger Jahre Vorsitzender der Grundsatzprogramm-Kommission der CDU, Stellvertretender Vorsitzender der CDU/CSU-Bundestagsfraktion und 1974 Kandidat für das Amt des Bundespräsidenten - dieser als Denker und Redner bundesweit bekannte Politiker ohne jede tatsächliche Macht will sich als Handelnder, als Entscheider, als Regierender bewähren – „statt immer nur herumzudenken“, wie er in einem Interview selbstironisch bekennt. Und entgegen dem Trend, Berlin Richtung Westen zu verlassen, zieht es ihn hierher. Der 58-Jährige beim Start zu einer neuen Karriere greift nach dem Stuhl von Ernst Reuter und Willy Brandt. Dabei hat er eine eigenwillige Vorstellung von der Bedeutung dieser Aufgabe. „Bei allem Respekt vor dem höchsten Amt im Staate, dem des Bundespräsidenten – das Amt des Regierenden Bürgermeisters von Berlin schätze ich höher ein.“ Berlin, Herbst 1978. Die Stadt ist – seit 1961 endgültig? – geteilt. Seit sechs Jahren gibt es dauerhaft 30 Tage jährlich Besuchsmöglichkeiten von West nach Ost, seit 14 Jahren für Rentner von Ost nach West jährlich bis zu vier Wochen.

Krause A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Konrad H. Jarausch Christopher R. Browning Klaus W. Larres Susan Dabney Pennybacker Donald M. Reid Benjamin Waterhouse © 2015 Scott H. Krause ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Scott H. Krause: Outpost of Freedom: A German-American Network’s Campaign to bring Cold War Democracy to West Berlin, 1933-66 (under the direction of Konrad H. Jarausch) This study explores Berlin’s sudden transformation from the capital of Nazi Germany to bastion of democracy in the Cold War. This project has unearthed how this remarkable development resulted from a transatlantic campaign by liberal American occupation officials, and returned émigrés, or remigrés, of the Marxist Social Democratic Party (SPD). This informal network derived from members of “Neu Beginnen” in American exile. Concentrated in wartime Manhattan, their identity as German socialists remained remarkably durable despite the Nazi persecution they faced and their often-Jewish background. Through their experiences in New Deal America, these self-professed “revolutionary socialists” came to emphasize “anti- totalitarianism,” making them suspicious of Stalinism. Serving in the OSS, leftists such as Hans Hirschfeld forged friendships with American left-wing liberals. These experiences connected a wider network of remigrés and occupiers by forming an epistemic community in postwar Berlin. They recast Berlin’s ruins as “Outpost of Freedom” in the Cold War.

Ambassador Bohlen comments on probable Kremlin reaction to Berlin riots: [Excised section] Ambassador Bohlen believes that the Berlin riots will forcibly impress on the Soviet leadership the dangers to a dictatorship inherent in a program of relaxation and liberalization, but that, nevertheless, the reforms in East Germany are likely to go forward. The ambassador considers that the reforms were motivated primarily by the domestic situation. They stemmed from the realization by the new Soviet rulers that a continuation of intensified socialization there would lead either to economic and political catastrophe or would require methods of open terror which they were unwilling to employ. Pointing to the fact that in its treatment of the Berlin situation the Orbit press had printed an almost unprecedented admission that a working class could oppose a Communist regime, and to the stress put on the need for greater consideration for the masses, the ambassador suggests that the reforms are likely to continue.

  • The Fatal Conceit: Swedish Education After Nazism Gabriel Heller
    IFN Working Paper No. 1338, 2020 The Fatal Conceit: Swedish Education after Nazism Gabriel Heller-Sahlgren and Johan Wennström Research Institute of Industrial Economics P.O. Box 55665 SE-102 15 Stockholm, Sweden [email protected] www.ifn.se The Fatal Conceit: Swedish Education after Nazism± Gabriel Heller-Sahlgren* and Johan Wennström** May 7, 2020 Abstract: In the aftermath of the Second World War, Sweden dismantled an education system that was strongly influenced by German, Neo-Humanist pedagogical principles in favor of a progressive, student-centered system. This article suggests this was in large part due to a fatal misinterpretation of the education policy on which Nazism was predicated. Contrary to scholarly and popular belief, Nazi schools were not characterized by discipline and run top-down by teachers. In fact, the Nazis encouraged a nationwide youth rebellion in schools. Many Nazi leaders had themselves experienced the belligerent, child-centered war pedagogy of 1914–1918 rather than a traditional German education. Yet, Swedish school reformers came to regard Neo-Humanism as a fulcrum of the Third Reich. The article suggests this mistake paved the way for a school system that inadvertently came to share certain traits with the true educational credo of Nazism and likely contributed to Sweden’s recent educational decline.
