Germany

Paper Summary:

This paper takes a look at Germany. The paper discusses the split between East Germany and West Germany, the Berlin Wall and the reunification process.

From the Paper:

"Migration of people from Eastern Germany and other parts of Eastern Europe into Western Germany has also brought social and cultural problems to light and illuminates the need for improved policy and institutional supports. For example, thousands of Germans from throughout the former communist bloc have streamed into the FRG since reunification as economic or political refugees. The massive influx of people from the East has caused considerable resentment amongst the residents of the FRG. Competition for jobs and for welfare monies results in dissatisfaction and social unrest."
