中 文 摘 要 : 研究工作階段說明
本案之研究開始於 2012 年 8 月,此時我獲得了本研究所必需 要的資源。同年 10 月,我參與了第 36 屆德語文化研究協會 (German Studies Association, GSA)年度學術會議,並在和 會議參與學者的討論中對本研究主題有了更好的理解。返國 後,我開始著手規劃與本案在本質上相聯繫的國家科學委員 會新年度計畫的申請。在去年度結束後的過去七個月期間, 我陸續完成本案所有研究階段。 本案成果 1. 根據本案研究,歐洲化、移民、全球化對紀念文化的種種 影響是高度矛盾性的。這是說,它們一方面被視為進一步跨 國整合與合作的機會,另方面卻也被理解為對紀念文化之特 定性和具體性的威脅。 2. 根據本案研究,不論是作為紀念文化的外部影響或應用性 的論述策略,歐洲化都已成為紀念文化的關鍵要素。全球化 在論述層次還是具高度爭議性,而移民雖然表面上持續得到 關注,但其實質影響至今仍未看見。 3. 根據本案研究,從目前學界研究現況觀之,若要闡明我們 對文化轉換的理解,則相較於「文化跨越性」 (transculturality)概念,貝克(Beck)和李維(Levy)的「反 思之現代性」概念(reflexive modernity)似乎是更為適當的 研究工具。 4. 本案之研究成果在未來若要轉換到其他可相比較的類似情 形使用,則必須做更多研究以給予支持,因為本案之議題本 身仍須做更深入的預備工作和研究。 未來展望 我將持續研究本議題,因為僅僅在本案研究過程中才引發了 的進階問題仍需要做延伸的考察和探究。本案的研究成果, 將在本年度十月份,於美國舉行的第 37 屆德語文化研究協會 年度學術會議發表。在公開發表本案研究成果後,我將根據 此案研究成果撰寫專書,並預期於 2014 年之下半年出版。 中文關鍵詞: 紀念文化、德語文化、歐洲化、移民、跨國際化 英 文 摘 要 : Individual work stages:
My research trip to Germany in August last year supplied with the sources necessary for
comprehensively conducting research. In October, I participated in the 36th annual conference of the
German Studies Association (GSA) to know better other scholars' opinions on the topic. After that, I
started to prepare the follow-up NSC application which is intrinsically connected to the previous research. I spent the following seven months on the remaining stages of the research process.
Results:
1. The range of the impact of Europeanisation, immigration and globalisation on the culture of
remembrance is highly contradictory. While being seen as chances to further international integration and cooperation, they are also perceived as threatening the specificity and concreteness of remembrance. 2. Europeanisation has become a pivotal factor in the culture of remembrance, both as an outside influence and as an applicable discursive strategy.
Globalisation is still more controversial on the discursive level, while immigration nominally is gaining growing attention, but tangible effects remain scarce.
3. For the time being, Beck's and Levy's paradigm of a 'reflexive modernity' seems a more appropriate tool than transculturality to elucidate our
understanding of cultural transformations.
4. The transfer of the results of this project on other, comparable cases has to remain an endeavour for the future because that in itself would again command a lot of further preparatory work and research.
Prospects:
I will keep on working on this topic. Further
questions which have only been raised in the research process still need extended consideration and
investigation. Results of my research will be presented at the 37th German Studies Association Annual Meeting (USA) in October. After that, I will start writing a book on my research which should be published in late 2014.

Introduction:
The culture of remembrance in Germany with regard to World War II is still in a process of change. And while there is broad agreement among scholars that there have been major shifts since the unification of West and East Germany in 1990, there is still too little research as to what differences actually have occurred and how exactly did they come about. That is where my research project has come in. Using a discourse analysis approach, I have investigated source materials from Parliament, press and memorial sites with respect to three major areas of societal development, i.e. the ongoing European integration, the establishment of Germany as a society of immigration and the increasing international and global orientation of European societies on the whole.
Individual work stages:
My research trip to Germany in August last year supplied with the sources necessary for comprehensively conducting research. So far I have concentrated on remembrance
speeches, debates and activities relating to the Holocaust and immediate consequences of World War II and could find ample material in all areas. After electronically arranging the material, I began to scan through secondary literature in order to prepare initial hypotheses on the topic which should be presented at a conference. In October, I then participated in the 36th annual conference of the German Studies Association (GSA) to get into discussions with other scholars researching into similar topics, either content-wise or methodologically. After that, I started to prepare the follow-up NSC application which is intrinsically connected to the research just concluded in so far as the legacy of World War II in terms of the culture of remembrance in Germany still is a vast area which recently has again more and more embraced aspects of victimisation of Germany and the Germans themselves, e.g. aerial bombardments, flight and expulsion from former German or occupied territories mainly in Eastern Europe. This indicates a significant shift in focus of the whole topic which necessarily
2
has to be taken into consideration. Since beginning of January, I have spent the remaining seven months on the close investigation of sources, studying secondary literature and thinking about the application of research methods and the integration of various relevant theoretical background concepts like transculturality, reflexive modernity and
cosmopolitanisation, all seen in connection with processes of memory and remembrance. Results:
1. The range of the impact of Europeanisation, immigration and globalisation on the culture of remembrance is highly contradictory. While being seen as chances to further international integration and cooperation, they are also perceived as threatening the specificity and concreteness of remembrance. This highlights the problematic of processes of internationalisation in general, but also sheds light on the problems German culture experiences in a process of opening up towards other cultures from the outside and to citizens with different cultural backgrounds from the inside.
2. Differentiating the various factors of influence has to remain somewhat tentative since the analysis observes shifts in discourses and hardly any directly measurable actions and reactions. However, it still becomes evident that Europeanisation has become a pivotal factor in the culture of remembrance, both as an outside influence and as an applicable discursive strategy. Globalisation is still more controversial on the
discursive level, while immigration nominally is gaining growing attention, but tangible effects remain scarce.
3. Transculturality remains an elusive concept to describe relatively recent societal developments as it operates on a very large and abstract scale. Therefore, for the time being, Beck’s and Levy’s paradigm of a “reflexive modernity” seems a more appropriate tool to elucidate our understanding of cultural transformations. And while cosmopolitanisation seems a fitting terms for developments of remembrance in various European societies, the term as such is so far not much more than a loose bracket to tie a whole host of phenomena together which still needs stricter definition. 4. The transfer of the results of this project on other, comparable cases has to remain
an endeavour for the future. As it turned out with the German case, there are not only external influences to be counted in but also internal dynamics which are both heavily contested in themselves and then still interact with each other to produce yet more unexpected results. So any comparative approach would again mean to thoroughly research into the case in point and then one would still have to identify sustainable areas and means of comparison and apply them in practice.

Prospects:
Although this summer I did not win a grant from the National Science Council to continue my research on a full project scale, I will keep on working on this topic. Further questions which have only been raised in the research process can only be answered after another lengthy period of consideration and investigation. Results of my research will – hopefully with the backing of a National Science Council travel grant – be presented at the 37th German Studies Association Annual Meeting (USA) in October of this year as part of a thematic panel which includes commentary and an open Q&A session. Upon my return, I will start writing a book on my research which should be published in late 2014.

摘要
德國的過去被視為在德國生活的德國國民專屬問題。現在這也也因為歐洲 統一進程而成為鄰近國家面臨的問題。此外,出生及成長於德國的第二及第三 代移民,但有他們父母及祖父母的文化及歷史作為主要的參考框架者,也需要 被納入紀念活動的範圍。產生的結果可被稱為跨文化性的形式,它象徵著背離 一種同質的、專屬國家的過去的一致民族文化。這份報告檢驗了德國文化記憶 改變的影響因素及人們如何在當前變動地發展他們對於過去不再是由他們所獨 佔的理解。使用公報、國會辯論紀錄及其他紀念網頁的資訊材料作為資源,它 將追溯德國人對他們二十世紀中葉的戰爭歷史、大屠殺、遷徙、驅逐等重要事 件如何被轉化於歐洲的多元文化社會中。- 3 -

Report on the research trip to Germany from 11th of August until 2nd of September 2012, Germany
English Summary
I am now a couple of months into examining some of the influential factors of change of the culture of remembrance in Germany and how people in the present try to make sense of the past and develop their understanding of that past, which is no longer their exclusive possession. Using press releases, records of parliamentary debates and exhibitions at memorial sites as well as corresponding information materials as sources, I am examining how Germans’ approach to major events of their mid-20th century history of war, mass murder, flight, expulsion etc. are being transformed within a more and more Europeanised multicultural society. At this stage, I can only offer first impressions. What can already be said with a degree of certainty, though, is that it seems very difficult to disentangle the various factors that influence these developments, especially since in Germany the unification of former East and West in 1990 and the generational change because of the death of the last survivors and witnesses of Nazi persecution and mass murder and the emergence of a young generation, for whom even the Cold War and the GDR are only distant history, loom heavily over any other factors that have entered the frame in the meantime.
3. Collecting data and information for my current research topic
In this research project I use a variety of sources as cultures of remembrance have to be traced across several societal areas. From the holdings of the Parliamentary Archives of the German Bundestag, a variety of files are being looked into. Records of German parliamentary debates and relevant bills, which were introduced there, are given a close look as well as transcripts of speeches of parliamentarians on
remembrance occasions. In Germany a lot of issues relating to Nazi era history and its consequences in terms of remembrance are negotiated within the centres of political power. Luckily enough, the majority of these records can also be found online, therefore I did not have to go to the archive proper at this stage, but could work with those files where access is granted via internet. Other relevant data and information as well as secondary literature were accessed at two of the various memorial sites
- 9 -
relevant to the remembrance of World War II and its immediate post-war history, thereby also bringing the perspective of societal groups and initiatives more into play. This is a vital part of the research as the changing views on World War II and
Holocaust remembrance have become hotly debated topics within German society for decades. For that purpose, the memorial sites in Sachsenhausen (East Germany) and Neuengamme (West Germany) were visited to have examples from both parts of the previously divided Germany. The memorial site in Sachsenhausen had been a major landmark within the official state-controlled culture of remembrance in the former German Democratic Republic. It also received a lot of public attention when after the unification a perceived need for change in the presentation of history at the site led to long and controversial debates. The memorial site of Neuengamme, on the other hand, is very prominent in terms of dealing with the challenges for remembrance activities in keeping pace with current societal changes, which are mostly brought about by the growing influence of migrant populations in Germany. Therefore both sites not only allow an inclusion of East as well as West German perspectives on the culture of remembrance, but at the same time also emphasise various transitional stages of its development. Media resources also play an important role in the societal discussions. Therefore, past and present volumes of major news outlets (BILD, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, SPIEGEL, Süddeutsche Zeitung, WELT, and ZEIT), which not only covered these discussions, but at times also actively contributed to them, were examined in the Institute for German Press Research at Bremen University. The impact of technological advance aside, also due to a lively debating culture in German media, they must be considered major players as far as German culture of
remembrance is concerned. It is also because of the sensitivity of the remembrance of World War II events that everything said in this respect in political or publicist
debates is closely examined in relevant media, which in turn makes them a rich source of information on those topics.

Abstract of the research project:
The German past used to be perceived as the exclusive issue of German nationals living in Germany. Nowadays it has also become an issue for the neighbouring countries because of the European unification process. Furthermore, second and third generation immigrants who were born and raised in Germany but with the cultural and historical background of their parents and grandparents as the main frame of reference also need to be integrated into the scope of remembrance. The ensuing consequences can be termed as forms of transculturality, signifying a departure from the concept of one homogeneous, uniform national culture with one coherent view of its exclusive national past. The paper examines the influential factors of change for the German culture of remembrance and how people in the present dynamically develop their understanding of that past which is no longer their exclusive possession. Using press releases, records of parliamentary debates and information materials from memorial sites as sources, it will be traced how Germans’ approach to major events of their mid-20th century history of war, mass murder, flight, expulsion etc. are being transformed in a Europeanised multicultural society.
4. Course of the investigation, perspectives of colleagues and results from files and publications of related research
I began my collection of research data at the Institute for German Press Research at Bremen University since I expected it to be the most time-consuming of all the places I intended to go to. At first I wanted to comprehensively browse entire years’ issues. But I soon found out that this method, without being able to use full text search engines to browse the microfilm-edited newspapers, was time wise not feasible. Therefore I had to adopt a more targeted approach to look up consecutive year-on-year issues of newspaper coverage around certain important remembrance dates. To make up for this limitation I decided to expand the scope of my investigation from two to six newspapers or weekly magazines respectively to trace the development of remembrance discourses over the years. Corresponding adjustments to the research design on the whole following from this change of strategy will be implemented over the coming weeks and months.
At Neuengamme Concentration Camp Memorial and Sachsenhausen Memorial and Museum I followed a fourfold approach. Firstly, I examined the site as such,
- 11 -
they present the past and how these presentations have developed over the years. Secondly, I could collect information materials on the exhibitions and on research and pedagogical activities of the memorial sites to provide an overview of the various ways how the staff working at the sites engages with the past and present of the memorials. Thirdly, I talked to those people responsible for research and pedagogical activities to get a better understanding of current developments in remembrance work in Germany. Fourthly, I spent some time in the respective on-site libraries, which hold extensive collections of journals and monographs relevant to my research and are almost exclusively unavailable in Taiwan. What is more, they cannot all be bought due to limited funds and can also very quickly be out of print or out of stock even in Germany itself; therefore, these libraries are vital to have continued access to that kind of research materials.
5. Benefits and insights for further research and teaching
On the one hand I immediately benefited from finding a lot of useful sources and texts for my ongoing research as well as talking to relevant people in the field about their thoughts on my topic and current developments in the area of culture of remembrance in Germany. At the same time, while browsing journals and books in the libraries, as a welcome side-effect, I could also find texts and ideas on the topics of the courses and lectures that I currently teach at Cheng Chi University. That helps keeping my lectures and presentations up to date with more recent research, conducted in Germany and also – due to publication constraints – mainly only available in Germany, too. Furthermore, researching in the country proper and with the proper sources gave me a clearer idea of direction as to which aspects should be at the centre of my projects and how to use available sources to back up arguments and theses. However, that does not always tie in neatly with my original ideas for the project. So now I am also faced with the necessity to make some adjustments in terms of
empirical as well as methodological approaches. This is usually part and parcel of any research endeavour. However, it effectively means that I have to go back to Germany again next year to deepen the material base and find sources which I have not yet included. It seems indispensable, though, in the light of new insights and directions of inquiry resulting from my analysis of data and sources vis-à-vis those theories and methods that have so far formed the fundament of my project basis to also make amendments to its material basis.

德文過去被視為在德國生活的德國國民專屬問題。現在這也也因為歐洲統 一進程而成為鄰近國家面臨的問題。此外,出生及成長於德國的第二及第三代 移民,但有他們父母及祖父母的文化及歷史作為主要的參考框架者,也需要被 納入紀念活動的範圍。產生的結果可被稱為跨文化性的形式,它象徵著背離一 種同質的、專屬國家的過去的一致民族文化。這份報告檢驗了德國文化記憶改 變的影響因素及人們如何在當前變動地發展他們對於過去不再是由他們所獨佔 的理解。使用公報、國會辯論紀錄及其他紀念網頁的資訊材料作為資源,它將 追溯德國人對他們二十世紀中葉的戰爭歷史、大屠殺、遷徙、驅逐等重要事件 如何被轉化於歐洲的多元文化社會中。- 3 -

Report on the 36th German Studies Association Annual Conference 4th of October until 7th of October 2012, Milwaukee, USA
English Summary
Over the years, this conference has been proved to be a reliable forum to present and discuss own research, establish and renew contacts with colleagues from various disciplines and to take in new ideas for my teaching and research. First and foremost, though, I wanted to present my own current research activities into Europeanisation,
Immigration, Transculturality: Repercussions on the culture of remembrance in Germany.
This topicbrings together various aspects of a wider field of inquiry which are usually investigated separately and also often not in diachronic perspective. Therefore, it is unique on the one hand, but there are quite some research projects that touch on individual aspect of my research and can prove useful as reference or for further professional exchanges. I spotted presentations on the topics of migration and its relations to cultural and societal developments, especially on the aspect of memories, remembrance and commemoration. Presentations that take up a transnational
perspective were also definitely relevant, not least with regard to methodological approaches, e.g. dealing with issues of comparison and contrast. The aspect of Europeanisation on various levels has remained a strong element among the research presented at this conference, too, and figures strongly in my research. Furthermore, I have ventured again into the by now already pretty established field of Asian German studies, as I still keep an eye on it with a perspective of own future research and was therefore looking for topics and colleagues, alike, relating to my own agenda for research and teaching.
1. Presenting my current research topic
Although I have started my research into the changes of the culture of remembrance only recently I thought it was still a good opportunity to have valuable professional exchanges already at this relatively early stage as it is thus possible to still include all the feedback into the current work. The panel where I presented my paper raised a couple of relevant aspects which definitely merit further examination. One thing is the tension between various levels or areas of memory, e.g. individual memories, family
- 8 -
memories and the more societal levels of commemoration activities and memory politics, which all follow different logics but still closely interact with one another. More generally, this can be called the tension between the “lexicon” and the “family album” of memory, as the public and private spheres of memories have come to be understood. Therefore, research into one of them usually requires awareness of the other, as well. One paper especially focused on this context, using public and private reactions towards the 1995/96 exhibition on “Crimes of the Wehrmacht 1941-1944” in Germany as a case in point. That exhibition in particular initiated a couple of shifts in the culture of remembrance in Germany and is, therefore, also immediately relevant for my research. The border between inclusion into and exclusion from the culture of remembrance also has to be a vital aspect of this research as it highlights the
respective development of the position of immigrants and newly naturalised Germans. The current demise of the generation of surviving victims of National Socialism also opens up another line of inquiry as the category of “victim” will be reassessed and re-evaluated in the process. Finally – despite all the influential factors from outside the native German majority society – there is of course also a strong dynamic of
normalisation of the nation and its past as a countermovement that necessarily has to be taken into consideration. The importance of this aspect must by no means be underestimated.
Abstract of the presentation:
The German past used to be perceived as the exclusive issue of German nationals living in Germany. Nowadays it has also become an issue for the neighbouring countries because of the European unification process. Furthermore, second and third generation immigrants who were born and raised in Germany but with the cultural and historical background of their parents and grandparents as the main frame of reference also need to be integrated into the scope of remembrance. The ensuing consequences can be termed as forms of transculturality, signifying a departure from the concept of one homogeneous, uniform national culture with one coherent view of its exclusive national past. The paper examines the influential factors of change for the German culture of remembrance and how people in the present dynamically develop their understanding of that past which is no longer their exclusive possession. Using press releases, records of parliamentary debates and information materials from memorial sites as sources, it will be traced how Germans’ approach to major events of

their mid-20th century history of war, mass murder, flight, expulsion etc. are being transformed in a Europeanised multicultural society.
2. Getting to know the results from similar or related research projects
Migration research has recently discovered more and more groups of migrants which so far have either been overlooked by scholars or have been presented in different contexts and thus were not perceived as migrants in the strict sense of the word. The reconfiguration of German post-war expellees from Eastern Europe is one of the main issues, which also offers a transgenerational outlook since the adult and child
expellees as well as their children and grandchildren all form distinct communities of experience and remembrance who also closely interact with each other. Also East Germans who migrated to the Western part of the country (and vice-versa) after the unification in 1990 hold potential for migration research which also dwells on the view of their past. These various constellations all offer valuable insights for my own research. Additionally, the commentary in the panel concerned brought up the
problematic issue of identity in Germany and the whole of Europe or at least within the European Union, which is always at stake in those processes. The reconfiguration of space also played a role in a couple of presentations. From this it can be seen and analysed how transnational or even global developments unfold. It has indirectly also an impact on memories which usually are bound to a certain space and are thus affected by its dynamic changes. Finally, monuments as manifestations of memory and a means of commemoration are an important element in the setup of a culture of remembrance which also has strong political overtones. Research in this area can, therefore, shed light on memory politics and the dynamics of memories.
3. Perspectives for future research and teaching
In a way this conference helped me to round off the initial period of my research project into the impact of migration and internationalisation on the German culture of remembrance. In this respect I could immediately benefit from one presentation which dealt with the contradictory process of European memory. Ongoing conflicts and heated debates clearly show that the future direction of remembrance in a unified Europe is still hotly contested and no definite outcome of any kind can be seen as of now. This field also serves perfectly as a topic for teaching within Cheng Chi University’s Department of European Languages and Cultures. Transitional justice
- 10 -
which is also a growing field of research is another aspect that bears on the
development of cultures of remembrance. The way public crimes during wars, civil wars and similar events are dealt with is usually reflected in the way those events are remembered later on. However, the immediate relevance of this aspect probably lies also rather within the teaching area, lest it not overstretch the span of my research project. The memory of Germany’s colonial past is also a somewhat underexplored part of the culture of commemoration in Germany. However, first and foremost it plays a role for writing textbooks and teaching in schools in Germany proper and poses questions of representation of the past in Germany in general. It nevertheless provides a vital point of reference for current research and might open up a possibility for future research, especially with a view of a colonial past in Taiwan as a potential means of comparison. The same can be said about memorial culture on the whole which is a culturally distinct phenomenon and thus merits culturally comparative investigation. Therewas an entire panel at the conference, devoted to the presentation of research into “Memory Culture, Authenticity, and Peace Movements in Post-war Germany and East Asia” which provided a lot of food for thought how to develop a perspective for future research in this direction.

The culture of remembrance in Germany has become a research topic of utmost importance. With this research project, it becomes clearer what kind changes it has undergone over the last twenty years. Since World War II has significance for numerous countries around the world, it will also provide tools and patterns of understanding for the analysis of similar processes elsewhere. With migration becoming an common feature of many countries, as well, it is also important to reflect on the impact this has on our understanding of a national past.
