The reunificationhappened after to the demise of the USSRand the end of the ColdWar. Germany is Europe'slargest and most populatedcountry. This country has produced some of the worlds finest in philosophy,music and physics. Germany is very proud of its culture. As illustratedby the fact that traditional food and dress is still very presenttoday. Germany is located in the heart of Europe. lt is bordered by Poland, the Netherlands,France, Switzerlandand Austria. The German climate is variableand changesduring differenttimes of the year. Familiesin Germanytend to consistof one or two parentsand childrenor simply two people living together. Traditionally,the man is the head of the household. Since more and more females are now in the workforcethe role of head of the household is shared. Many Germans live in apartments or condominiums. Educationis a very importantto the Germans. Their educationalstructure is similar to that of the United States. The main differenceis their university system,which usuallytakes about five to seven years to complete. In addition, universitiesare known not for their title but for specializingin a particularfield. The fiteracyrate in Germanyis 99%. The currentpolitical system in Germanyis a stableFederal Republic. The two parties that legislate over national issues are the Bundestag and the Bundesrat,The politicalparties that are activeinclude the Alliance,the Christian DemocraticUnion and the Free DemocraticParty just to name a few. The legat systemin Germanyis basedon the Grundgesetzof 1949. lt is a civillaw system that is similarto that of the UnitedStates. German life has a myriad of old traditionsthat have helpedto shape the culturaldevelopment of the country and their leisure activities. For instance, there is a strong love of food and wine that has grown over the years. Sports are also a favoritepastime of the Germans. Germanslove soccer,which they call fussball Businesscustoms and practicestend to be more formalthan those of the U.S. Germansaddress each other by their job academictitles and surnames.

AlthoughGerman is the officiallanguage, many businesstransactions are done using English. Businessdress is quite formal in comparisonto the business casualthat has taken over corporateArnerica. There is no state churchin Germanyand no controlof the churchesby the state. The relationship between church and state is that of a partnership regulatedby agreements.

History and Politics of Germany Becauseunderstanding political situation in Germanyis extremely importantto understandingthe societythe followingis a fairlybrief historyof the countriespolitics: Fromthe times of the Neanderthals,political events in the area that is now Germanyhave beenfiercely contested. The inhabitantsof the land had early connectionswith the Roman Legionsfrom 50 BC to the 5thcentury AD. Overtime powershifted from the Romansto Charlemagne(up to the early 9th century),and to Otto the Great's Holy Roman Empire(from late in the 1Othcentury). By the 13thcentury, when the Hapsburgfamily began their reign,the landswere littlemore than a conglomerateof Germanspeaking States. After the devastatingthirty years war and much religious conflict,Napoleon came throughin the early 19thcentury. After Prussiaconquered the Leipzigbattle in 1813,Napoleons control of the regioncame to an end. Overtime the Prussianchancellor and Kaiser unitedGermany for the firsttime. 9 KaiserWilhelm ll dismissedthe chancellorBismarck in 1890and led Germanyinto \ A/t/lwhere he disappearedto Hollandupon finding out that the war was not goingwell. Germanystruggled with civilunrest and a disastrouspeace, uniting only in dislikeof the reigningWeimar Republic.Then cameAdolf Hitler,an Austriandrifter and Germanarmy veteranwho was able to unitethe countriesfeeling of disaffectionfor the currentsituation.

The emergence of techno music – commonly used in France as electronic dance music – in the early 1990s is inseparable from rave parties as a form of spatiotemporal deployment. It signifies that the live diffusion via a sound system powerful enough to diffuse not only its volume but also its sound frequencies spectrum, including infrabass, is an integral part of the techno experience. In other words listening on domestic equipment is not a sufficient condition to experience this music.

  • Introduction
    Introduction Cornelius Torp and Sven Oliver Müller I What sort of structure was the German state of 1871? What sort of powers and phenomena dominated it? What sort of potential for development did it possess? What inheritance did it leave behind? How did it shape the future course of German history? These questions have been at the heart of numerous historical controversies, in the course of which our understanding of Imperial Germany has fundamentally changed. Modern historical research on the German Empire was shaped by two important developments.1 The first was the Fischer controversy at the beginning of the 1960s, which put the question of the continuity of an aggressive German foreign policy from the First to the Second World War onto the agenda, thus providing one of the key impulses for research into the period before 1918.2 The second was a complex upheaval at almost exactly the same time in the historiography of modern Germany in which a particular interpretation of German history before World War I played a central role. The advocates of this interpretation immediately referred to it as a “paradigm change,” a concept then in fashion.3 Indeed, surprisingly quickly, a group of young historians were able to establish across a broad front a new interpretation of modern German history, which broke in many respects with old traditions. In their methodology, the representatives of the so-called “historical social science” (Historische Sozialwissenschaft) turned with verve against the interpretation which had dominated mainstream historiography up till then, which saw the dominant, most important historical actions and actors in politics and the state.

The Berlin Olympics: Sports, Anti-Semitism, and Propaganda in Nazi Germany Abstract The aN zis utilized the Berlin Olympics of 1936 as anti-Semitic propaganda within their racial ideology. When the Nazis took power in 1933 they immediately sought to coordinate all aspects of German life, including sports. The process of coordination was designed to Aryanize sport by excluding non-Aryans and promoting sport as a means to prepare for military training. The 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin became the ideal platform for Hitler and the Nazis to display the physical superiority of the Aryan race. However, the exclusion of non-Aryans prompted a boycott debate that threatened Berlin’s position as host.

  • First Century German Literature and Film
    Abstract Title of Document: AMERICAN BLACKNESS AND VERGANGENHEITSBEWÄLTIGUNG IN TWENTY- FIRST CENTURY GERMAN LITERATURE AND FILM Christina Wall, Doctor of Philosophy, 2014 Directed by: Professor Elke P. Frederiksen, Department of Germanic Studies This study represents a unique examination of the convergence of constructs of Blackness and racism in twenty-first century novels and films by white Germans and Austrians in order to demonstrate how these texts broaden discourses of Vergangenheitsbewältigung. The increased prominence of minority voices demanding recognition of their national identity within Nazi successor states has transformed white German perceptions of “Germanness” and of these nations’ relationships to their turbulent pasts. I analyze how authors and directors employ constructs of Blackness within fictional texts to interrogate the dynamics of historical and contemporary racisms. Acknowledging that discourses of ‘race’ are taboo, I analyze how authors and directors avoid this forbidden discourse by drawing comparisons between constructs of American Blackness and German and Austrian historical encounters with ‘race’. This study employs cultural studies’ understanding of ‘race’ and Blackness as constructs created across discourses. Following the example of Toni Morrison’s Playing in the Dark (1992), my textual analyses show how these constructs create a “playground for the imagination” in which authors confront modern German racism. My study begins with a brief history of German-African American encounters, emphasizing the role American Blackness played during pivotal moments of German national identity formation. The subsequent chapters are divided thematically, each one comprised of textual analyses that explore discourses integral to Vergangenheitsbewältigung. The third chapter examines articulations of violence and racism in two films, Oskar Roehler’s Lulu & Jimi (2008) and Michael Schorr’s Schultze gets the blues (2008), to explore possibilities of familial reconciliation despite historical guilt.
