| Research Abstract |
The theme of this research is an analysis of the constructive relations between the social modernization and the culture symbol systems in Germany since the end of the 18th. century ; especially the modernization in the case of sanitary operations of the mass of modern urban people.
Because the modern "political anatomy" (Foucault) was realized in the form of a calculated hygienic control of the human body and the life, called "bio force" (Foucault). This bio force took command over the human healthiness, not as a personal matter but as a public sanitary matter.
It is then very important to remark that the urban circumstances were mostly the stages of these public hygienic problems. It is necessary therefore to analyze episthemologically the social customs of funeral and chronological changes of constructions of graveyard, churchyard or cemetery in the city of Berlin since the end of the 18th. century from the point of view of a public health problem and an urban sanitary engineering. Berlin as a good type of the urban circumstances is appropriate to the purpose of the research ; a public health problem as a realized bio force, a funeral matter as a concrete example of the public sanitary problem.
As a result of the research it is recognized that differentiation of the sanitary operations on the funeral customs in Berlin was nothing but the typically modern bio force mobilized on the public health/death of urban mass people in this big city.
