This paper deals with the privatization, restructuring, and liquidation of East German industrial firms. A partnership model is suggested for privatization where the Government’s property trust (Treuhandanstait (THA)) is made a silent partner of the private investors. The application of a general scheme of wage subsidies is rejected in the paper. Furthermore, the paper argues against restructuring policies of the Government’s property trust and proposes to set decreasing limits on the trust’s finances for the years following 1993. The decreasing financial inflow will force the Government’s trust to close firms, and will also signal the commitment of the Government to liquidate the trust itself by, say, the year 2000.

Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: A-, Johns Hopkins University (School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS)), course: West European Political Economies, 20 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Firstly, as typical for a centrally planned socialist economy, the great majority of productive capacity belonged to the state. Large, state owned enterprises (Volkseigene Betriebe), often grouped into huge industrial conglomerates (Kombinate), made up 80.7 percent of total assets. Cooperative property accounted for another 14.7 percent in March 1990. Private property merely amounted to 4.7 percent of economic resources and was confined to small-scale businesses, restaurants, and craft shops. Employment was consequently almost entirely in the hand of the state leaving only about 2 percent of the workforce independently employed (Merkl 1994, p. 200). Also, the structure of the GDR economy differed largely from its western counterpart. Employment was heavily concentrated in sectors and branches that had actually been declining in the West. The production was skewed towards agriculture, energy, mining and manufacturing, which together accounted for 47 percent of employment in the GDR (37 percent in the BRD) (Lange and Pugh 1998, p. 32). As shown in table 1 agriculture, forestry and fishery, energy and mining as well as textiles and clothing employed almost 18 percent of the GDR’s workforce in contrast to 7 percent in West Germany. Further differences appeared in the service and trade sector which, by Western standards, was rather underdeveloped in the GDR. [...]

This analysis of the privatization of agriculture in eastern Germany captures the turbulent times after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and the subsequent reunification of the two Germanies. Based in large part on oral histories provided by cooperative managers, newly independent family farmers, and westerners who established farms in the east, the authors examine the competitive struggle involved in the transformation from communism to capitalism. Linking the personal to the local, regional, national, and global, they develop a theory of the construction of identities out of past experiences and new challenges, in order to account for the ambiguities and contradictions inherent in the core relations and ideas that constitute the new Germany.

Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject Economics - Other, grade: 1,0, University of Wrocław (Master of Managerial Economics), course: Economic Policy, language: English, abstract: For an appropriate comprehension and consequently treatise of the German ‘Treuhandanstalt’ (THA) or shortened ‘Treuhand’, trust agency as literal translation and privatization agency as analogous translation, it is absolutely necessary to keep in mind the history and context. “It would be hard to devise a better controlled experiment for comparing different economic systems than the experience provided by East Germany and West Germany: two nations that formerly were one, occupied by people of the same background, the same culture, and the same genetic inheritance, torn apart by the accident of war. On one side of the Berlin Wall is a relatively free economic system; on the other side, a collectivist society” (Milton Friedman 1986, cited in Collier/Siebert 1991: 196). Milton Friedman was assuredly surprised when his ideal field for experimentation of comparing ran in another direction three years later. As commonly known, the mentioned Berlin Wall fell on 9 November 1989 and became the starting point of a never seen before transformation of the German Democratic Republic (GDR) according to his geographical and geostrategic position also known as East Germany. Nevertheless the statement of the recipient of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences and in general one of the most famous economists of the 20th century remains unaffected. The origin of the so-called ‘German reunification’ or ‘the turning point’ is unique; the still special circumstances liberated by the fall of the Berlin Wall, which only formed part of a series of the demolishing Iron Curtain, led to incomparable possibilities regarding transformations in many countries in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). The formal political accession, occurred on the 3rd October 1990, is a quite famous date and its anniversary is nowadays the national day, the ‘day of German unity’. The Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), previously known as West Germany, from this day forth consisted of sixteen federal states, eleven old and five new ones. But another, earlier aspect of the reunification is not so well known: the bilateral state treaty about the creation of a monetary, economic and social union (MESU) of 18 May 1990, that came into effect on 1 July 1990. This was the comprehensive economic integration of the command economy GDR in the capitalistic, more precisely social market economy, FRG.
