Collective Memory Trends in Germany since Unification Eric Langenbacher Government, Georgetown University ABSTRACT The Federal Republic of Germany—both before and after 1989—has been influenced deeply by collective memories of the Nazi period and the Holo- caust, a seemingly “unmasterable past.” In a first phase after unification, memory trends, which had their origin in the mid 1980s, continued, but a second period, beginning around the 1999 move of the capital back to Berlin, however, witnessed the erosion of this older trend and the delayed rise of new memory dynamics. Substantively, there have been three vectors of memory concerning Nazi crimes, German suffering, and the period of division, especially regarding the German Democratic Republic. In this article, I outline the major collective memory dynamics and debates, first from a qualitative and then from a more quantitative perspective where I analyze the holdings of the German National Library. I conclude that an intense period of memory work characterized the postunification years, but the peak of concern was reached several years ago and the German future will be much less beholden to the past. Given inevitable normalizing trends and the unintended consequences of the hegemony of Holocaust memory, Germany’s difficult historical legacy increasingly appears to be disappearing or even mastered.

Introduction Attempts to periodize the past often abuse the historical flow and evolu- tion of events, personalities, and processes. The decline of an industry, the rise of a political movement, or the dissipation of a generation’s political influence rarely is connected nicely to a round date. Nevertheless, “critical junctures” do significantly affect political-cultural reality—sometimes with foundational impact, but often accelerating, decelerating, beginning, or ending processes. 1989/1990 in Germany was such a critical juncture in both senses. Yet, when looking specifically at cultural and collective mem- ory trends, this caesura had delayed influence with processes begun before the watershed continuing and other incipient trends, “founded” by the juncture taking years to become manifest. With these provisos in mind, looking back over the last twenty years, I discern two phases of German collective memories—divided loosely around the 1999 return of the capital to Berlin, which itself is another (albeit less-critical) juncture. Moreover, there have been three, at times, intersecting vectors of collective memory concerning the Holocaust, Ger- man suffering, and the period of division during the Cold War. In this paper, I outline the major memory dynamics and debates, from both qual- itative and quantitative perspectives. I argue that the last twenty years wit- nessed a period of vigorous memory work, but the zenith of such attention probably has passed and the German future will be much less beholden to “pasts that won’t go away.”1 Indeed, Germany may be in the midst of a shift from an “unmasterable” to a “mastered” past.2 The History of Memories since Unification Holocaust-centered Memory The first postunification trend was the continuation, culmination, and institutionalization of Holocaust memory, what I elsewhere have called Holocaust-centered memory or the Bonn memory regime.3 Rising slowly rose from subsequently much-criticized obscurity in the immediate post- war years—a period of silence, even repression towards the Nazi period during which a pervasive “amnesty mentality” allowed numerous perpe- trators to escape justice4— the memory because increasingly prominent from the 1960s onward. This process was spurred by several factors including: generational change;5 judicial proceedings, such as the Eich- mann Trial in Jerusalem in 1961 and the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trial of ••• 43 ••• 04-Lang:Layout 1 2/26/10 2:55 PM Page 44 Eric Langenbacher 1963-1965; and a variety of cultural works including plays by Rolf Hochhuth (Der Stellvertreter, The Deputy, 1963) and Peter Weiss (Die Ermit- tlung,The Investigation, 1965), and, later, the NBC television miniseries Holocaust, which was aired in the Federal Republic in 1979 (and that one in two adults watched).6 The rise of the local “history from below” and the history of everyday life (Alltagsgeschichte) movements from the 1970s onwards—part of a more general increase of interest in history, heritage, and memory internationally at this time—were additional facilitating fac- tors.7 Yet, despite heightening attention over several decades, this memory achieved cultural hegemony only in the years right before the fall of the Wall. Crucial were the great public and political debates surrounding the fortieth anniversary of the end of World War II in 1985: the Bitburg Affair, when Helmut Kohl and Ronald Reagan awkwardly celebrated Cold War unity at a German military cemetery that contained SS graves; President Richard von Weizsäcker’s speech on 8 May; the Historians’ Dis- pute (Historikerstreit) starting in 1986; and, later, the Jenninger Affair of 1988, where the Christian Democratic Union (CDU)Bundestag speaker was forced to quit after delivering an inappropriate speech on the fiftieth anniversary of the “Kristallnacht” pogrom.8 The continued ascendance of Holocaust memory post 1989 was espe- cially visible in the institutionalization of unified German commem- orations. “Round” anniversaries, especially 1995 and 2005, became significant political events, routinely producing important official pro- nouncements asserting responsibility and contrition for the crimes of the past, exemplified by former Chancellor Gerhard Schröder’s speech at the sixtieth anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising in 2004. Other dates—like 8 May, 9 November (the anniversary of the fall of the Wall and “Kristall- nacht”), and 27 January (the date of the liberation of Auschwitz and, since 1996, an official commemorative day (Gedenktag))—have become annual commemorations replete with full media coverage. High-level visits of German politicians to Israel (e.g., Chancellor Angela Merkel’s March 2008 trip) and stops by foreign dignitaries to former concentration camps (e.g., U.S. President Barack Obama at Buchenwald in June 2009) also have become expected rituals.9 Memorials have proliferated since 1990, continuing a trend that dates back to the mid 1980s in the Federal Republic.10 Prominent examples include the Neue Wache memorial rededicated controversially (because various victim groups are not differentiated and their suffering seemingly is equated) to “all victims of war and tyranny” on Berlin’s Unter den Lin- den in 1993, and the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, opened ••• 44 ••• 04-Lang:Layout 1 2/26/10 2:55 PM Page 45 The Mastered Past? in 2005 near the Brandenburg Gate after fifteen years of debate mainly about proper commemorative forms and aesthetics in the “land of perpe- trators.”11 Other memorials in the capital include one on the Bebelplatz (site of the infamous Nazi book burning of 1933) erected in 1993; various “anti-monuments” especially in old Jewish districts like the Scheunenvier- tel (off Oranienburger Strasse) or the “Places of Remembrance” in Schöneberg’s Bayerisches Viertel;12 and at other sites such as the Haus der Wannsee Konferenz, Rathaus Steglitz and the train station in Grunewald (where many Berlin Jews were deported to Auschwitz). Additional memo- rials to other groups victimized by the Nazis commemorate gays (unveiled in 2008 across the street from the Holocaust memorial), Sinti and Roma (to be completed in late 2009 or 2010), and the “T4” euthanasia victims. Mention should also be made of the Jewish Museum in Kreuzberg with Daniel Libeskind’s symbolic architectural “voids,” the Museum of Ger- man History, re-opened in 2006, which comprehensively covers the Nazi period and the Holocaust, as well as the Topography of Terror, the site of Gestapo headquarters, where a new documentation center will open in 2010.13 The proliferation of such sites has transformed the city into what some have called the “capital of remorse” (Hauptstadt der Reue) as the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung memorably put it.14 These high-profile museums and memorials in the new/old capital are just the most prominent examples of the Holocaust memorialization trend that exists throughout the country beyond the memorials at the former Nazi concentration and labor camps on German soil (Bergen-Belsen, Neuengamme, Sachsenhauen, Ravensbrück, Buchenwald, Mittelbau- Dora, Dachau, Flossenbürg), as well as at the sites of destroyed syna- gogues (e.g., Worms, Altenkunstadt, Cologne) and former Jewish quarters (e.g. Augsburg, Rothenburg). Nuremberg, for example, installed a small museum and memorial plaques throughout the former Nazi Party Rally grounds—in time for the matches of the 2006 World Cup of Soccer that were played in the vicinity. It has declared itself a “city of human rights”15 and is currently erecting a memorial and museum to the Nuremberg Trials (Courtroom 600).16 Hamburg (the “Black Form” monument in Altona, dating back to the late 1980s and several others), Frankfurt (Judengasse), Kassel (Aschrottbrunnen), Stuttgart (Nordbahnhof) and many other places have installed memorials to the victims of the Nazis and to the centuries- old Jewish communities that were destroyed. There are also efforts to more fully commemorate Munich’s “brown” past in a city notorious for its unwillingness to confront its Nazi legacy17 and the East German city of Erfurt is erecting a museum at the former site of the Topf und Söhne ••• 45 ••• 04-Lang:Layout 1 2/26/10 2:55 PM Page 46 Eric Langenbacher factory, which produced the crematorium ovens used, for example, at Auschwitz and Buchenwald.18 One of the most interesting commemora- tive efforts is the artist Gunter Demnig’s Stolperstein (stumbling stone) ini- tiative on-going since 1993.

    Mario Draghi: Laudatio for Theo Waigel Speech by Mr Mario Draghi, President of the European Central Bank, in honour of Dr Theodor Waigel, at SignsAwards, Munich, 17 June 2016. * * * James Freeman Clarke, a 19th century theologian, once observed that “a politician is a man who thinks of the next election, while a statesman thinks of the next generation”. This captures well why we are here to honour Theo Waigel today. Theo Waigel’s political career cannot just be defined by the elections he won, however many there were during his 30 years in the Bundestag. Nor can it be defined by his time as head of the CSU and as finance minister of Germany. It is defined by his legacy: a legacy that is still shaping Europe today. He became finance minister in 1989 at a turning-point in post-war European history – when the Iron Curtain that divided Europe was being lifted; when the walls and barbed wire that divided Germany were being removed. It was a time of great hopes and expectations. But it was also a time of some anxiety. It was clear that the successful reunification of Germany would be a tremendous undertaking. And many wondered what those changes would mean for the European Community – whether it would upset the balance of power that had prevailed between nations since the war. In that uncertain setting, Theo Waigel’s leadership was pivotal – both as a German and as a European. He was one of the strongest advocates of German reunification, and was instrumental in getting Germany’s federal and state governments to finance the reconstruction and modernisation of East Germany.

  • Ostracized in the West, Elected in the East – the Successors of the SED
    Volume 10. One Germany in Europe, 1989 – 2009 The Red Socks (June 24, 1994) The unexpected success of the successor party to the SED, the Party of Democratic Socialism (PDS), at the ballot box in East Germany put the established (Western) parties in a difficult situation: what response was called for, ostracism or integration? The essay analyzes the reasons behind the success of the PDS in the East and the changing party membership. The Party that Lights a Fire Ostracized in the West, voted for in the East – the successors to the SED are drawing surprising support. Discontent over reunification, GDR nostalgia, or a yearning for socialism – what makes the PDS attractive? Last Friday, around 12:30 pm, a familiar ritual began in the Bundestag. When representative Uwe-Jens Heuer of the PDS stepped to the lectern, the parliamentary group of the Union [CDU/CSU] transformed itself into a raging crowd. While Heuer spoke of his party’s SED past, heckling cries rained down on him: “nonsense,” “outrageous.” The PDS makes their competitors’ blood boil, more so than ever. Saxony-Anhalt votes for a new Landtag [state parliament] on Sunday, and the successor to the SED could get twenty percent of the vote. It did similarly well in the European elections in several East German states. In municipal elections, the PDS has often emerged as the strongest faction, for example, in Halle, Schwerin, Rostock, Neubrandenburg, and Hoyerswerda. A specter is haunting East Germany. Is socialism celebrating a comeback, this time in democratic guise? All of the Bonn party headquarters are in a tizzy.

Markovits, Chair Professor Geoff Eley Associate Professor Julia C. Hell Associate Professor Johannes von Moltke © Jeffrey P. Luppes 2010 To My Parents ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Writing a dissertation is a long, arduous, and often lonely exercise. Fortunately, I have had unbelievable support from many people. First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor and dissertation committee chair, Andrei S. Markovits. Andy has played the largest role in my development as a scholar. In fact, his seminal works on German politics, German history, collective memory, anti-Americanism, and sports influenced me intellectually even before I arrived in Ann Arbor. The opportunity to learn from and work with him was the main reason I wanted to attend the University of Michigan. The decision to come here has paid off immeasurably. Andy has always pushed me to do my best and has been a huge inspiration—both professionally and personally—from the start. His motivational skills and dedication to his students are unmatched. Twice, he gave me the opportunity to assist in the teaching of his very popular undergraduate course on sports and society. He was also always quick to provide recommendation letters and signatures for my many fellowship applications. Most importantly, Andy helped me rethink, re-work, and revise this dissertation at a crucial point.

Emphasis is placed on the relationship between these peripheral areas and metropolitan core areas. Scalar and vector data on selected indicators in the years 2005 and 2015 for gminas (communes, territorial units NUTS 5) are presented. The values for both years were observed as well as the change between them. A composite indicator based on the calculated data was developed, and it served as the basis for categorisation of metropolitan, 'semi-peripheral' and peripheral areas, which were further defined on the basis of their intrinsic properties and location in the region. The development of such peripheral areas is assessed more generally in the conclusions.

The Culture of Remembrance of World War II and the Holocaust in Unified Germany Christoph Thonfeld* Abstract Since the 1990s, Germany has dealt with the difficult integration of collective and individual memories from East and West Germany. Alongside the publicly more prominent remembrances of perpetration has occurred an upsurge in the memories of German suffering. At the same time, Europe has increasingly become a point of reference for national cultures of remembrance. These developments have been influenced by post-national factors such as Europeanisation and transnationalisation along with the emergence of a more multicultural society. However, there have also been strong trends toward renationalisation and normalisation. The last twenty years have witnessed a type of interaction with the ‘other’ as constructively recognised; while at the same time it is also excluded by renationalising trends. Researchers have described the combination of the latter two trends as the cosmopolitanisation of memory. This article adopts the diachronic perspective to assess the preliminary results since 1990 of the actual working of this cosmopolitanisation process within the culture of remembrance of World War II and its aftermath in Germany. Keywords: culture of remembrance, World War II, cosmopolitanisation, Europeanization, renationalization. * Assistant Professor at National ChengChi University, Dept. of European Languages and Cultures.

In their foreign relations work, these non-state actors preceded the Polish-West German political relations that were established in 1970. The dissertation has a twofold focus on private contacts between these activists, and on public discourse through radio, television and print media, primarily its effects on political and social change between the peoples. My sources include the activists’ private correspondences, interviews, and memoirs as well as radio and television manuscripts, articles and business correspondences. Earlier research on Polish-German relations is generally situated firmly in a nation-state framework in which the West German, East German or Polish context takes precedent. My work utilizes international relations theory and comparative reconciliation research to explore the long-term and short-term consequences of the discourse and the concrete measures which were taken during the 1960s to end official deadlock and nationalist antagonisms and to overcome the destructive memories of the Second World War dividing Poles and Germans.
