  • Political, Moral and Legal Aspects of the Resettlement of German Population After World War II
    POLISH REVIEW OF INTERNATIONAL AND EUROPEAN LAW 2018, Vol. 7, Issue 2 WOLLT IHR DEN TOTALEN KRIEG? Political, Moral and LEGal Aspects of the Resettlement of German Population After World War II Jerzy Kranz* Abstract: Germany had started the Second World War in an intentional and conscious manner, obviously being aware that every action can have unpredictable and unwanted consequences. The Potsdam decisions were taken by the Great Powers after assuming supreme authority in Germany. They constituted a manifestation of the Allies’ rights and responsibilities. The territorial changes of Germany and the transfer of population were part of the general regulation of the effects of the Second World War. These decisions were not a simple matter of revenge. They must be perceived in a wider political perspective of European policy. The resettlement by Germany of ethnic Germans to the Reich or to the territories it occupied constituted an instrument of National Socialist policy. This German policy turned out in 1945 to be a tragic irony of fate. The resettlement decided in Potsdam must be perceived in the context of German legal responsibility for the war’s outbreak. The individual perception of the resettlement and individual guilt are different from * Professor, Department of International Law and European Union, Kozminski University 9 Jerzy Kranz the international responsibility of the state and from the political-historical responsibility of the nation. In our discussion we made the distinction between the individual and the collective aspect as well as between the legal and historical/ political aspect. We deal with the guilt of individuals (criminal, political, moral), the international legal responsibility of states, and the political and historical responsibility of nations (societies).

  • Memory and Myth: the Bombings of Dresden and Hiroshima in German and Japanese TV Drama
    Memory and myth: the bombings of Dresden and Hiroshima in German and Japanese TV drama GRISELDIS KIRSCH Abstract Japan is often blamed for not coming to terms with its own wartime past and for focusing solely on its role as a victim of the war. Germany, however, is often seen as the model that Japan has to emulate, having penitently accepted responsibility. Thus, in order to work out how these popular myths are being perpetuated, the media prove to be a good source of information, since they help to uphold memory and myth at the same time. In this paper, it will be examined how the “memory” of the bombings of Dresden and Hiroshima is being upheld in Japan and Germany2 and what kinds of “myths” are being created in the process. In focusing on two TV dramas, it shall be worked out to what extent Japan and Germany are represented as “victims” and to what extent, if at all, the issue of war responsibility features in these dramas. Keywords: Hiroshima; Dresden; war memory; television; television drama. 記憶と神話:ドイツと日本のテレビドラマにおけるドレスデン爆 撃と広島 グリゼルディス・キルシュ 日本は過去の戦争について清算せず、被害者意識ばかりに焦点を置い ている。それに対してドイツは反省して自らの戦争責任を受け入れて おり、日本は倣うべきであるとしばしば言われる。こうした 「神話」 がいかに受け継がれて来ているかを検証するにあたって、メディアは 重要な情報源であり、過去の記憶と同時に 「神話」を広め続けている。 本稿はドレスデン大空襲と広島の原爆の記憶が両国でどのように継承 Contemporary Japan 24 (2012), 51270 18692729/2012/02420051 DOI 10.1515/cj-2012-0003 © Walter de Gruyter Brought to you by | School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London Authenticated Download Date | 1/20/20 3:33 PM 52 Griseldis Kirsch され、どのような「神話」 が築き上げられてきたかを二つのテレビド ラマに焦点をあてて見ていきたい。ドイツと日本が単に「犠牲者」 と して描かれているのか、そして、戦争責任についてどの程度触れられ ているかを検証する。 1.

April 2018 6. Kulturpolitische Jahrestagung der Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung Kulturpolitik im Welt(en)Wandel Zusammenhalt und Teilhabe in einer vielfältigen Welt Dokumentation Vorwort Was ist die Aufgabe von Kultur in einer Zeit drastischer politischer und kultu- reller Umbrüche? In einer Zeit, geprägt von wachsender sozialer Ungleichheit, zunehmendem Populismus und gegenseitiger Abschottung sind wir heraus- gefordert, diese Frage neu zu beantworten. Kunst und Kultur können Vielfalt sichtbar machen, Respekt und Toleranz ein- fordern, Grenzen überwinden und Wandlungsprozesse mitgestalten. Und wie ist eine Kulturpolitik zu gestalten, die Kunst und Kultur Freiräume gewährt und Strukturen zu ihrer Stärkung bereitstellt? Welche Weichenstel- lungen sind hier nötig? Diese und andere Fragen diskutierten am 20./21. April 2018 Akteur_innen der Kulturpolitik, Kulturschaffende aus allen Sparten und Verbandsvertreter_innen im Rahmen der 6.
