Treuhandanstalt: The Impossible Challenge

At the end of 1994 the Treuhandanstalt finished its main job as a privatisation agency and was replaced from 1995 onwards by a Federal Institute under the Minister of Finance. The 21 authors of this book, well-known scholars in their various sciences, deal with the foundation of the Treuhandanstalt, its internal and external guidelines, its main tasks (for instance privatisation, restructuring, liquidation), and the implications of the institute's work - for the labour market and for the economic structure in the new states. Other questions treated are the consequences of the transformation process to the trade relations to Eastern Europa and press opinions about the Treuhand and its work. The English version of this book will enlarge the knowledge throughout the world about a dramatic piece of the history of our time and an economic and social transformation process of unprecedented scale.
