College of Charleston

Subject:

German Studies

Description:

More than just Bratwurst and BMWs, German business is a global phenomenon with an important economic impact on South Carolina and the U.S. There are over 270 German companies based in South Carolina alone. This class explores business-related issues in the 20th and 21st century German-speaking world. Through film, literary and historical texts, we'll discuss critically the emergence of the German economy out of the rubble of World War II, the economic miracle, its role in industrialization, globalization, materialism and as the economic powerhouse of the EU. We will also analyze cultural differences between Germans and Americans in business settings.
