Sporting Democracy: the Western Allies’ Reconstruction of Germany Through Sport, 1944-1952 SPORTING DEMOCRACY: THE WESTERN ALLIES’ RECONSTRUCTION OF GERMANY THROUGH SPORT, 1944-1952 by Heather L. Dichter A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Department of History, University of Toronto © Copyright by Heather L. Dichter, 2008 ABSTRACT Sporting Democracy: The Western Allies’ Reconstruction of Germany Through Sport, 1944-1952 HEATHER L. DICHTER Doctor of Philosophy, 2008 Department of History, University of Toronto This dissertation examines how the three western Allies used sport to rebuild western Germany during the occupation and early years of the Federal Republic. The Allies believed that the sports in which Germans chose to participate before 1945, in particular fencing and gymnastics (Turnen), helped define one’s Germanness through demonstrations of militarism and hyper-masculinity. The development of Directive 23 on the Limitation and Demilitarization of Sport within the quadripartite Allied Control Authority imposed on sport the goals of the Potsdam Declaration: denazification, demilitarisation, decentralisation, and democratisation. By using sport as a vehicle to examine the achievement of western Allied goals, this dissertation demonstrates the centrality of sport to occupation policy. Sport became a highly effective instrument of public diplomacy because of its broad appeal and also because it allows for a public display of national capabilities. By encouraging competition with athletes from other countries, the western Allies fostered a transformation of German sport from defining individual characteristics to supporting broader, group-oriented ideas of democracy. The problems of creating national sport organisations mirrored the geo-political situation as the western occupation zones merged to form the Federal Republic. The debate over the structural organisation of sport provided the Germans with an opportunity to demonstrate the democratic ideals learned from the western ii Allies but also allowed them to use these same ideals to gain autonomy. Germans used the internationalism of sport to regain a position within the international community because international sport federations lay outside official state control. Examining unofficial international football matches and West Germany’s reacceptance by the international federations illustrates how sport provided a place for Germans to participate in the international system when no formal German state existed. The division of Germany forced the world’s sportsmen to address the political realities of Germany even though they considered sport separate from politics. This dissertation demonstrates how the western Allied efforts to dissociate sport and politics instead created the environment which enabled sport to assume a place of primacy during the Cold War, making the use of sport to democratise West Germany an ironic continuation of the politicisation of sport within Germany. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project involved several research trips across North America and Europe to many archives and organisations. I could never have conducted the research for this project without the assistance of: Marty Mcgann of the National Archives and Records Administration in College Park, Maryland; Kerstin Schenke of the Bundesarchiv in Koblenz; the entire staff of the Bureau des archives de l'Occupation française en Allemagne et en Autriche in Colmar; the staff of the Archives diplomatiques at the Ministère des Affaires Étrangères in Paris; Lena Ånimmer at the National Archives of Sweden (Riksarkivet); Stephan Wassong and Michael Winter of the Carl und Liselott Diem Archiv; Michael Schirp of the Deutscher Olympischer Sportbund; the entire staff of the International Olympic Committee Library and Archive, in particular Ruth Beck-Perrenoud and Marie-Hélène Guex; Nathalie Rodriguez at the Federation Internationale d'Escrime; Christa Bühler at the Federation Internationale de Football Association; Pierre Weiss at the International Association of Athletics Federations; David Barber at the Football Association in London; Ina Müller of the Deutscher Fussball-Bund; Simone Kratzer at the Deutsche Leichtathletik Verband; and Jezael Fritsche at the Schweizer Fussball Verband. In addition to all of the archives that I visited, I would also like to thank Anne Causey of Special Collections at the University of Virginia Library, David Klaassen of the Social Welfare History Archives at the University of Minnesota, Linda Stahnke of the University Archives at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, David Hays and Karen Gifford at the University of Colorado at Boulder Archives, and Erika Gorder of Special Collections and iv University Archives at Rutgers University for their assistance in locating additional material. I could not have completed the multi-country research for my dissertation without the financial assistance of several organisations and departments. The University of Toronto provided me with significant support coming from the Joint Initiative in German and European Studies, the Centre for International Studies, the School of Graduate Studies, and the Department of History. I would also like to thank the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations for supporting both my language instruction and my dissertation research, and I also received additional funding from the International Society of Olympic Historians and the George C. Marshall Foundation. I would also like to thank Bruce Kidd and Jennifer Jenkins for being supportive members of my dissertation committee. Most importantly, I would like to thank Modris Eksteins for being a great supervisor and encouraging me to tackle this topic. Getting through graduate school and writing my dissertation was made easier with the help of many friends, especially Erin Hochman, Jen Polk, Katie Edwards, Wilson Bell, Anthony Cantor, and Erik Huneke. I always looked forward to conversations on German sport with Jan C. Rode. I would also like to thank all of my friends that housed me for various lengths of time as I traveled across Europe during my research, especially Ray and Maureen Whitley in England and Sandra Esser and Stefanie Seeh in Cologne. My parents have always provided me with much support during graduate school, which I have greatly appreciated. My grandfather had finished writing his dissertation but could not afford to have all of the copies made to complete his degree due to the birth of his second son, my father. To his memory I dedicate this dissertation. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ................................................................. ii Acknowledgments ......................................................... iv Abbreviations............................................................ vii List of Figures ............................................................ ix Introduction ...............................................................1 Chapter 1 Washington, London, and Potsdam: Demilitarising German Sport . 31 Chapter 2 Game Plan for Democracy: Public Diplomacy and Sport . 80 Chapter 3 Kicking Around International Sport: The 1948 German-Swiss Football Games . 136 Chapter 4 Recentralisation and the Founding of National Sport Organisations: The German Efforts to Gain Control of Sport . 172 Chapter 5 Returning to the International Arena ..........................................236 Conclusion ..............................................................310 Bibliography.............................................................326 vi ABBREVIATIONS ACC Allied Control Council AGSEC Allied General Secretariat (Allied High Commission) AHC Allied High Commission CCG(BE) Control Commission for Germany (British Element) CONL Control Council (Allied Control Authority) CORC Co-Ordinating Committee (Allied Control Authority) DAT Deutscher Arbeitsausschuss Turnen (German Working Committee for Gymnastics) DFA Deutscher Fussball Ausschuss (German Football Committee) DFB Deutscher Fussball-Bund (German Football Federation) DIAC Internal Affairs and Communications Directorate (Allied Control Authority) DLA Deutscher Leichtathletik-Ausschuss (German Track and Field Committee) DLEG Legal Directorate (Allied Control Authority) DLV Deutsche Leichtathletik Verband (German Track and Field Federation) DMIL Military Directorate (Allied Control Authority) DRA Deutscher Reichsausschuß für Leibesübungen (National Reich Committee for Physical Exercise) DTB Deutscher Turner Bund (German Gymnastics Federation) EAC European Advisory Commission FIBT Fédération Internationale de Bobsleigh et de Tobaganning (International Federation of Bobsledding and Tobogganing) FIE Fédération Internationale d'Escrime (International Fencing Federation) FIFA Fédération Internationale de Football Association GMZFO Gouvernement Militaire de la Zone Française d’Occupation GYA German Youth Activities HICOG High Commission for Germany (United States) HICOM Allied High Commission IAAF International Amateur Athletic Federation (now the International Association of Athletics Federations) IOC International Olympic Committee JCS Joint Chiefs of Staff LAW Law Committee (Allied High Commission) MSB Military Security Board NOK Nationales Olympisches Komitee für Deutschland NSRL Nationalsozialistischer Reichsbund für Leibesübungen (National Socialist Reich Association for Physical Exercise) NSWA National Social Welfare Assembly OMGUS Office of Military Government for Germany (United States) POL Political Affairs Committee (Allied High Commission) SFVA Schweizerische Fussball-

  • Fernand De Montigny (1885-1974): Multiple Olympic Champion and Architect
    Fernand de Montigny (1885-1974): multiple Olympic champion and architect By Roland Renson Berlin. He won four Olympic medals: gold in Antwerp An elegant pose 1920, Chamonix 1924 and St. Moritz 1928, and silver in from young Lake Placid 1932. épéeist Fernand The American skier Colin Stewart (1927–2015), who de Montigny participated in the slalom at the 1948 St Moritz Winter Photo: Jean-François de Games, was awarded his degree in architecture from Montigny (JFdM) Archive Harvard in 1955, and there are probably several other Olympians like him who combined their passion for sport with architecture. On the other side of the medal, there was the Dutch architect Jan Wils (1891–1972), who had designed the Olympic Stadium of the 1928 Games in Amsterdam and who won the gold medal in architectural designs in the Olympic art competitions of these Games, but Wils never competed in any Olympic sporting discipline. The Belgian fencer, skater, ice and field hockey player Fernand de Montigny (1885–1974) was a multiple Olympic champion who won six official Olympic medals in 1908, 1912, 1920, 1924 and one non­official medal at the 1906 “Intercalated” Games. He was also the architect of the Antwerp Olympic Stadium where the Games of the VII Olympiad took place in 1920. This article will therefore focus on his remarkable career, both as a sportsman and as an architect. I would like to thank sincerely Jean­François de Montigny, the son of Fernand, who provided first­ hand information, documents and pictures of his father. Moreover, he donated many of these valuable documents to the Sportimonium (Sport and Olympic Museum, Zemst, Belgium) where they now reside and Introduction: sport and architecture can be consulted.
