The German North Sea Ports' Absorption Into Imperial Germany, 1866–1914
From Unification to Integration: The German North Sea Ports' absorption into Imperial Germany, 1866–1914 Henning Kuhlmann Submitted for the award of Master of Philosophy in History Cardiff University 2016 Summary This thesis concentrates on the economic integration of three principal German North Sea ports – Emden, Bremen and Hamburg – into the Bismarckian nation- state. Prior to the outbreak of the First World War, Emden, Hamburg and Bremen handled a major share of the German Empire’s total overseas trade. However, at the time of the foundation of the Kaiserreich, the cities’ roles within the Empire and the new German nation-state were not yet fully defined. Initially, Hamburg and Bremen insisted upon their traditional role as independent city-states and remained outside the Empire’s customs union. Emden, meanwhile, had welcomed outright annexation by Prussia in 1866. After centuries of economic stagnation, the city had great difficulties competing with Hamburg and Bremen and was hoping for Prussian support. This thesis examines how it was possible to integrate these port cities on an economic and on an underlying level of civic mentalities and local identities. Existing studies have often overlooked the importance that Bismarck attributed to the cultural or indeed the ideological re-alignment of Hamburg and Bremen. Therefore, this study will look at the way the people of Hamburg and Bremen traditionally defined their (liberal) identity and the way this changed during the 1870s and 1880s. It will also investigate the role of the acquisition of colonies during the process of Hamburg and Bremen’s accession. In Hamburg in particular, the agreement to join the customs union had a significant impact on the merchants’ stance on colonialism. -

January 2011 Accreditation of the city of Delmenhorst as “Safe Community” within the programme of the WHO Collaborating Centre on Community Safety Promotion Impressum Accreditation of the city of Delmenhorst as “Safe Community” of the WHO Collaborating Centre on Community Safety Promotion Editor: The registered association Infantile Health (GiK e.V.), Delmenhorst City of Delmenhorst Editorial staff: Dr. Johann Böhmann, Dr. Birgit Warwas-Pulina, Andreas Kampe, Stella Buick Contact: Dr. Johann Böhmann, head physician of the paediatric clinic of Delmenhorst, Wildeshauser Str. 92, 27753 Delmenhorst Peter Betten, coordinator of the round table “Injury prevention”, city of Delmenhorst, Service 3 Delmenhorst, January 2011 II Preface Road traffic or household injuries, violence against women, children or dissidents cause damage to each individual and to the community, which cannot be accepted. Therefore prevention is very important in the community of Delmenhorst. The city of Delmenhorst has undertaken the task of avoiding injuries caused by accidents and violence by means of systematic precaution as far as possible. A successful prevention is the precondition for a cross-departmental and systematical approach. The prevention must not only include the reaction to the current occurrences, but must also include a comprehensive and systematic long-term, active strategy. With the report on hand “accreditation of the city of Delmenhorst as safe community” the community of Delmenhorst applies for the acceptance to the international network of the “Safe Communities”. The stakeholders in Delmenhorst would like to learn from the experiences of other countries and they want to provide the international community with their knowledge regarding prevention.

New Evidence for the Theory of the Stork

However, there is no correlation between deliveries in Thielallee 88–92, D-14195 Berlin, Germany. hospital buildings (clinical deliveries) and the stork population. The decline in the E-mail: number of pairs of storks in the German state of Lower Saxony between 1970 and [email protected] 1985 correlated with the decrease of deliveries in that area. The nearly constant num- ber of deliveries from 1985 to 1995 was associated with an unchanged stork popula- tion (no statistical significance). However, the relevance of the stork for the birth rate in that part of Germany remains unclear, because the number of out-of-hospital deliv- eries in this area is not well documented. A lack of statistical information on out-of- hospital deliveries in general is a severe handicap for further proof for the Theory of the Stork. The intended value (disclaimer): This article is not intended to disprove the value of serious epidemiological investigations. It is an example of how studies based on popular belief and unsubstantiated theory, seconded by low quality references and supported by coincidental statistical association could lead to apparent scientific endorsement. -
Inference Under Superspreading: Determinants of SARS-Cov-2 Transmission in Germany
Inference under Superspreading: Determinants of SARS-CoV-2 Transmission in Germany Patrick Schmidt University of Zurich E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Superspreading complicates the study of SARS-CoV-2 transmission. I propose a model for aggregated case data that accounts for superspreading and improves statistical inference. In a Bayesian framework, the model is estimated on German data featuring over 60,000 cases with date of symptom onset and age group. Several factors were associated with a strong reduction in transmission: public awareness rising, testing and tracing, information on local incidence, and high temperature. Immunity after infection, school and restaurant closures, stay-at-home orders, and mandatory face covering were associated with a smaller reduction in transmission. The data suggests that public distancing rules increased trans- mission in young adults. Information on local incidence was associated with a reduction in transmission of up to 44% (95%-CI: [40%, 48%]), which suggests a prominent role of be- havioral adaptations to local risk of infection. Testing and tracing reduced transmission by 15% (95%-CI: [9%,20%]), where the effect was strongest among the elderly. Extrapolating weather effects, I estimate that transmission increases by 53% (95%-CI: [43%, 64%]) in colder seasons. arXiv:2011.04002v1 [stat.AP] 8 Nov 2020 1 Introduction At the point of writing this article, the world records a million deaths associated with Covid-19 and over 30 million people have tested positive for the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Societies around the world have responded with unprecedented policy interventions and changes in behavior. The reduction of transmission has arisen as a dominant strategy to prevent direct harm from the newly emerged virus. -

The Spatial and Temporal Diffusion of Agricultural Land Prices
The Spatial and Temporal Diffusion of Agricultural Land Prices M. Ritter; X. Yang; M. Odening Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Department of Agricultural Economics, Germany Corresponding author email: [email protected] Abstract: In the last decade, many parts of the world experienced severe increases in agricultural land prices. This price surge, however, did not take place evenly in space and time. To better understand the spatial and temporal behavior of land prices, we employ a price diffusion model that combines features of market integration models and spatial econometric models. An application of this model to farmland prices in Germany shows that prices on a county-level are cointegrated. Apart from convergence towards a long- run equilibrium, we find that price transmission also proceeds through short-term adjustments caused by neighboring regions. Acknowledegment: Financial support from the China Scholarship Council (CSC NO.201406990006) and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) through Research Unit 2569 “Agricultural Land Markets – Efficiency and Regulation” is gratefully acknowledged. The authors also thank Oberer Gutachterausschuss für Grundstückswerte in Niedersachsen (P. Ache) for providing the data used in the analysis.

North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) / India
Page 1 of 13 Consulate General of India Frankfurt *** General and Bilateral Brief- North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) / India North Rhine-Westphalia, commonly shortened to NRW is the most populous state of Germany, with a population of approximately 18 million, and the fourth largest by area. It was formed in 1946 as a merger of the provinces of North Rhine and Westphalia, both formerly parts of Prussia, and the Free State of Lippe. Its capital is Düsseldorf; the largest city is Cologne. Four of Germany's ten largest cities—Cologne, Düsseldorf, Dortmund, and Essen— are located within the state, as well as the second largest metropolitan area on the European continent, Rhine-Ruhr. NRW is a very diverse state, with vibrant business centers, bustling cities and peaceful natural landscapes. The state is home to one of the strongest industrial regions in the world and offers one of the most vibrant cultural landscapes in Europe. Salient Features 1. Geography: The state covers an area of 34,083 km2 and shares borders with Belgium in the southwest and the Netherlands in the west and northwest. It has borders with the German states of Lower Saxony to the north and northeast, Rhineland-Palatinate to the south and Hesse to the southeast. Thinking of North Rhine-Westphalia also means thinking of the big rivers, of the grassland, the forests, the lakes that stretch between the Eifel hills and the Teutoburg Forest range. The most important rivers flowing at least partially through North Rhine-Westphalia include: the Rhine, the Ruhr, the Ems, the Lippe, and the Weser. -
