French and German Cultural Cooperation, 1925-1954 Elana
The Cultivation of Friendship: French and German Cultural Cooperation, 1925-1954 Elana Passman A dissertation submitted to the faculty of 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 2008 Approved by: Dr. Donald M. Reid Dr. Christopher R. Browning Dr. Konrad H. Jarausch Dr. Alice Kaplan Dr. Lloyd Kramer Dr. Jay M. Smith ©2008 Elana Passman ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT ELANA PASSMAN The Cultivation of Friendship: French and German Cultural Cooperation, 1925-1954 (under the direction of Donald M. Reid) Through a series of case studies of French-German friendship societies, this dissertation investigates the ways in which activists in France and Germany battled the dominant strains of nationalism to overcome their traditional antagonism. It asks how the Germans and the French recast their relationship as “hereditary enemies” to enable them to become partners at the heart of today’s Europe. Looking to the transformative power of civic activism, it examines how journalists, intellectuals, students, industrialists, and priests developed associations and lobbying groups to reconfigure the French-German dynamic through cultural exchanges, bilingual or binational journals, conferences, lectures, exhibits, and charitable ventures. As a study of transnational cultural relations, this dissertation focuses on individual mediators along with the networks and institutions they developed; it also explores the history of the idea of cooperation. Attempts at rapprochement in the interwar period proved remarkably resilient in the face of the prevalent nationalist spirit. While failing to override hostilities and sustain peace, the campaign for cooperation adopted a new face in the misguided shape of collaborationism during the Second World War. -

Pendas This dissertation examines the relationship between Black America and East Germany from 1949 to 1989, exploring the ways in which two unlikely partners used international solidarity to achieve goals of domestic importance. Despite the growing number of works addressing the black experience in and with Imperial Germany, Nazi Germany, West Germany, and contemporary Germany, few studies have devoted attention to the black experience in and with East Germany. In this work, the outline of this transatlantic relationship is defined, detailing who was involved in the friendship, why they were involved, and what they hoped to gain from this alliance. -
MAX BECKMANN, New Book by Peter Selz
The Museum of Modern Art No. kB FOR RELEASE: est 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Circle 5-8900 Cable: Modernart Thursday, October 1, I96U HAX BECKMANN by Peter Selz, with contributions by Perry T. Rathbone and Harold Joachim, is the first major monograph on the German-born (I88U-I950) artist to be written in English. The 160-page book, illustrated with reproductions of 121 paint ings, drawings and prints, 13 of them in color, discusses in detail Beckmann*s ca reer as artist and teacher in this country and abroad, and offers a penetrating analysis of his paintings and their iconography. Published by The Museum of Modern Art and printed in Germany, the handsome format of the book--which includes three large foldout illustrations of Beckmann's famous triptychs: Departure. Blindman's Buff and The Argonauts--was designed by Werner Brudi, a young German-born designer now working in New York. Now recognized as one of the leading European painters of the twentieth century, Beckmann1 s modernity lies in his attitude toward experience rather than in formal experiments. Dr. Selz, Curator of Painting and Sculpture Exhibitions at The Museum of Modern Art, writes, "Beckmann, by endowing the dream with precise structure and meticulous detail, belongs to that mainstream of modernism which has its parallels in the writings of Kafka and Joyce, the paintings of de Chirico and Bacon, and the films of Antonioni and Bergman. In all their work the feeling of human estrangement is enhanced by the use of hard physical reality." MAX BECKMANN, which is one of The Museum of Modern Art's major Fall books, is published on the occasion of a large retrospective of the artist's work which will travel to Boston, New York and Chicago in this country, and then be shown at Hamburg and Frankfurt in Germany, and finally at London's Tate Gallery. -
Germany: a Global Miracle and a European Challenge
GLOBAL ECONOMY & DEVELOPMENT WORKING PAPER 62 | MAY 2013 Global Economy and Development at BROOKINGS GERMANY: A GLOBAL MIRACLE AND A EUROPEAN CHALLENGE Carlo Bastasin Global Economy and Development at BROOKINGS Carlo Bastasin is a visiting fellow in the Global Economy and Development and Foreign Policy pro- grams at Brookings. A preliminary and shorter version of this study was published in "Italia al Bivio - Riforme o Declino, la lezione dei paesi di successo" by Paolazzi, Sylos-Labini, ed. LUISS University Press. This paper was prepared within the framework of “A Growth Strategy for Europe” research project conducted by the Brookings Global Economy and Development program. Abstract: The excellent performance of the German economy over the past decade has drawn increasing interest across Europe for the kind of structural reforms that have relaunched the German model. Through those reforms, in fact, Germany has become one of the countries that benefit most from global economic integration. As such, Germany has become a reference model for the possibility of a thriving Europe in the global age. However, the same factors that have contributed to the German "global miracle" - the accumulation of savings and gains in competitiveness - are also a "European problem". In fact they contributed to originate the euro crisis and rep- resent elements of danger to the future survival of the euro area. Since the economic success of Germany has translated also into political influence, the other European countries are required to align their economic and social models to the German one. But can they do it? Are structural reforms all that are required? This study shows that the German success depended only in part on the vast array of structural reforms undertaken by German governments in the twenty-first century. -

Sebastian Dullien Since the euro crisis began, many in Europe have begun to SUMMARY 1 Since the euro crisis began, many in Europe see the German economy as a model. While growth has not have begun to see the German economy as been particularly impressive, unemployment in Germany is a model. In particular, they have urged lower than at any time since reunification and lower than in others in the eurozone to emulate the any other large European country or the United States.

In fact, the large OECD countries. Moreover, the German economy Germany’s large current account surplus, low continues to expand its exports and consistently runs a unemployment rate, and acceptable growth rate are the product of a combination of large current account surplus. These stable macroeconomic nominal wage restraint, supported by labour conditions have made Berlin the decisive voice in market reforms that have brought down the discussions about rescue measures: Germany seemed to be reservation wage and have put downward the only country that had adequate financial resources to pay pressure on wages, and severe spending for bailouts. restraints on public investment as well as on research and development and education. This memo will examine the reasons for the success of the While this approach has worked well for German economy during the last decade. -

1 the End of Global Capital Flows During the Great Depression
The End of Global Capital Flows During the Great Depression Harold James, Princeton University International capital markets froze up during the Great Depression, and the capital movements that did take place in the aftermath of the depression were regarded as destabilizing “hot money” flows. Previous debt crises in the nineteenth century era of globalization had resulted in the penalization of the problem area for substantial periods of time (decades), but capital flows from the major centers had resumed to new areas quite quickly. What distinguished the Great Depression was: - that several areas of the world were hit simultaneously in a general crisis - that the crisis undermined the financial structure of the major financial centers - that the response to the crisis in many countries involved the suspension of debt service and an imposition of capital controls - that lending countries regarded the volatility of capital flows as an economic problem but also as a security issue - that in consequence the climate of opinion shifted to a belief that capital flows were the major source of the destabilization. 1. The General Crisis 1 The First World War was clearly a major shock to the international economic order: the gold standard was suspended, there were major debtor defaults (the Russian Empire), and countries adopted highly inflationary war finance. But capital flows resumed quickly after the war, as they had after nineteenth century debt crises. Many U.K. and U.S. investors thought the depreciated currencies of central Europe attractive, and bet on recoveries (foolishly, as it turned out). After the currency stabilizations of the mid-1920s, capital flows were not deterred by continuing political uncertainty and instability, or by the priority of reparations payments (which later came to play a role in the creditors’ panic).1 This looks like similar behavior to that of the classic gold standard era, where crises were followed by a suspicion of certain areas, but not a turning away from all international engagement.
