  • The Godesberg Programme and Its Aftermath
    Karim Fertikh The Godesberg Programme and its Aftermath A Socio-histoire of an Ideological Transformation in European Social De- mocracies Abstract: The Godesberg programme (1959) is considered a major shift in European social democratic ideology. This article explores its genesis and of- fers a history of both the written text and its subsequent uses. It does so by shedding light on the organizational constraints and the personal strategies of the players involved in the production of the text in the Social Democra- tic Party of Germany. The article considers the partisan milieu and its trans- formations after 1945 and in the aftermaths of 1968 as an important factor accounting for the making of the political myth of Bad Godesberg. To do so, it explores the historicity of the interpretations of the programme from the 1950s to the present day, and highlights the moments at which the meaning of Godesberg as a major shift in socialist history has become consolidated in Europe, focusing on the French Socialist Party. Keywords: Social Democracy, Godesberg Programme, socio-histoire, scienti- fication of politics, history of ideas In a recent TV show, “Baron noir,” the main character launches a rant about the “f***g Bad Godesberg” advocated by the Socialist Party candidate. That the 1950s programme should be mentioned before a primetime audience bears witness to the widespread dissemination of the phrase in French political culture. “Faire son Bad Godesberg” [literally, “doing one’s Bad Godesberg”] has become an idiomatic French phrase. It refers to a fundamental alteration in the core doctrinal values of a politi- cal party (especially social-democratic and socialist ones).

  • Central Europe
    Central Europe West Germany FOREIGN POLICY wTHEN CHANCELLOR Ludwig Erhard's coalition government sud- denly collapsed in October 1966, none of the Federal Republic's major for- eign policy goals, such as the reunification of Germany and the improvement of relations with its Eastern neighbors, with France, NATO, the Arab coun- tries, and with the new African nations had as yet been achieved. Relations with the United States What actually brought the political and economic crisis into the open and hastened Erhard's downfall was that he returned empty-handed from his Sep- tember visit to President Lyndon B. Johnson. Erhard appealed to Johnson for an extension of the date when payment of $3 billion was due for military equipment which West Germany had bought from the United States to bal- ance dollar expenses for keeping American troops in West Germany. (By the end of 1966, Germany paid DM2.9 billion of the total DM5.4 billion, provided in the agreements between the United States government and the Germans late in 1965. The remaining DM2.5 billion were to be paid in 1967.) During these talks Erhard also expressed his government's wish that American troops in West Germany remain at their present strength. Al- though Erhard's reception in Washington and Texas was friendly, he gained no major concessions. Late in October the United States and the United Kingdom began talks with the Federal Republic on major economic and military problems. Relations with France When Erhard visited France in February, President Charles de Gaulle gave reassurances that France would not recognize the East German regime, that he would advocate the cause of Germany in Moscow, and that he would 349 350 / AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK, 1967 approve intensified political and cultural cooperation between the six Com- mon Market powers—France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg.

  • An Integrated Marine Data Collection for the German Bight

Open Access Open Data An Integrated Marine Data Collection for the German Bight – Part II: Tides, Salinity and Waves (1996 – 2015 CE) Robert Hagen1, Andreas Plüß1, Romina Ihde1, Janina Freund1, Norman Dreier2, Edgar Nehlsen2, Nico Schrage³, Peter Fröhle2, Frank Kösters1 5 1Federal Waterways Engineering and Research Institute, Hamburg, 22559, Germany 2Hamburg University of Technology, Hamburg, 21073, Germany ³Bjoernsen Consulting Engineers, Koblenz, 56070, Germany Correspondence to Robert Hagen ([email protected], ORCID: 0000-0002-8446-2004) 10 Abstract The German Bight within the central North Sea is of vital importance to many industrial nations in the European Union (EU), which have obligated themselves to ensure the development of green energy facilities and technology, while improving natural habitats and still being economically competitive. These ambitious goals require a tremendous amount of careful planning and considerations, which depends heavily on data availability. For this reason, we established in close cooperation with 15 stakeholders an open-access integrated, marine data collection from 1996 to 2015 for bathymetry, surface sediments, tidal dynamics, salinity, and waves in the German Bight for science, economy, and governmental interest. This second part of a two-part publication presents data products from numerical hindcast simulations for sea surface elevation, current velocity, bottom shear stress, salinity, wave parameters and wave spectra. As an important improvement to existing data collections our model represents the variability of the bathymetry by using annually updated model topographies.

  • The Visitation of Alois Ersin, S.J., to the Province of Lower Germany in 1931
    Chapter 10 The Visitation of Alois Ersin, S.J., to the Province of Lower Germany in 1931 Klaus Schatz, S.J. Translated by Geoffrey Gay 1 Situation and Problems of the Province Around the year 1930, the Lower German province of the Society of Jesus was expanding but not without problems and internal tensions.1 The anti-Jesuit laws passed in 1872 during the Kulturkampf had been abrogated in 1917.2 The Weimar Constitution of 1919 had dismantled the final barriers that still existed between the constituent elements of Germany and granted religious freedom. The German province numbered 1,257 members at the beginning of 1921, when the province was divided into two: the Lower German (Germania Inferior) and the Upper German (Germania Superior), known informally as the northern and southern provinces. The southern or Upper German province, with Munich as its seat, comprised Jesuit communities in the states of Bavaria, Württemberg, Baden, and Saxony. These consisted of Munich (three residences), Aschaffen- burg, Nuremberg, Straubing, Rottmannshöhe (a retreat house), Stuttgart, and Dresden. The northern or Lower German province, with Cologne as its seat, was spread over the whole of northern Germany and included the territory of Prussia and the smaller states of northern Germany (of which only Hamburg had a Jesuit residence). At the time of the division, the new province contained fifteen residences: Münster in Westphalia, Dortmund, Essen, Duisburg, Düs- seldorf, Aachen, Cologne, Bonn, Bad Godesberg (Aloisiuskolleg), Waldesruh, 1 See Klaus Schatz, S.J., Geschichte der deutschen Jesuiten 1814–1983, 5 vols.
