Research Abstract |
It was the purpose of our research to find out characteristics of the modernization during the second German Empire regarding the multiple cultural phenomena. Based on the modernization during the second empire, an economic and industrial prosperity occurred in Germany. But at the same time the morbid reverse of this modernization showed in several aspects of living. This contradiction can be called according to Habermas "an asynchronocly developing of modernization within the <system> and the <Lebenswelt>. This asynchronicity can not be seen only in Germany but generally in all processes of modernization.But particularly in Germany this asynchronicity displayed special characteristics. As Germany, to quote Helmut Plessner, began with her modernization as a "belated nation" the contradictions of the civil society could emerge here stronger than in other nations of the modernization such as France or Great Britain. We believed that the unbalance of the modernization in the <system> and

the <Lebenswelt> was also causing the Nazi-Regime. Therefore we were focusing the research on 1)the elucidation of the problems in the process of modernization especially with regard to the institutionalization and the formation of the so called "outsider-cultur", 2)analysis of the influences of the institutionalization in the field of processing of knowledge (university education, forming of nationalism by means of language education) and then 3)the elucidation of the so called "deutschen Sonderwegs (as the historian Wehler called it), which let the "belated nation" into the Nazism. Here the by S. Krakauer and E. Bloch used wording "synchronicity of the asynchronous" served as a keyword. Under the aspect of the "synchronicity" we could find out the parallel phenomena of the morbidly developing process of modernization of the European Society in general, but under the aspect of "asychronicity" we did come ty the conclusion that the "Sonderweg" of Germany - "latestarter" of modernization just like Japan - led to the radical rejection of modernization and raionalization in the form of the totalitarian regime.
