Research Abstract |
Between 1898 and 1919 eleven business schools were founded almost silultaneously in Germany, Austria-Hungary and Switzerland : in Leipzig, Cologne and Berlin, for example, a Handelshochschule, in Vienna an Exportakademie, in Budapest a Kelti Kereskedelmi Akademia and in St.Gallen a Handelsakademie. My research is aiming at a social history of these newly-founded business schools. During the last two years(2002 and 2003) I investigated especially the following problems : (1)the structure of the student body at the Leipzig Handelshochschule, (2)the proportion of Catholic students to all students in Germany who obtained the degree of Diplom-Kaufmann, (3)the history of the Frankfurt Academy where a degree of Versicherungsverstandige could be gained, and (4)the social structure of Diplom-Kaufmann graduates who cam from the world of the Eastern Churches. On the basis of these investigations I came to the conclusion that these business schools were not only places of higher education for future busiess people, but also a small select community of students who spoke so different languages and lived in different religions. At these business schools with their international background students were able to stick to their own culture and values. The new business schools formed in Germany, Austria-Hungary and Switzerland represented a kind of pluralistic societies, though on a small scale.
