The document summarizes the state of the Weimar economy between 1924-1929. While industrial production and exports were increasing, creating more jobs, agriculture production and wages remained below pre-WW1 levels. Unemployment also rose during this period. Historians disagree on whether the German economy had truly recovered or remained precarious due to factors like high government spending, wages demands, and lack of business investment.

Nazi Germany - stimulating economic recovery
The Nazis prioritized rebuilding Germany's economy when they came to power in 1933. They launched public works programs to reduce unemployment, which had reached around 6 million. They also forced some groups, like Jews and women, out of the workforce. These policies led to a quick reduction in unemployment, falling to under 4 million by the end of 1933. Overall, economic indicators like wages and GDP improved during the Nazis' early years in power. However, this growth masked ongoing problems and did not benefit all groups equally, with industrial workers seeing bigger wage gains than other parts of society.

4. recovery or illusion of recovery
This page considers whether the apparent political and economic recovery that Weimar enjoyed between 1924-1929 was genuine or in fact an illusion.
Weimar Germany - were Germans reactions to the treaty justified?
The document discusses whether German opinions of the unfairness of the Treaty of Versailles were justified. It provides context on the German government strongly encouraging public hatred of the treaty's terms. While territory and military conditions were less punitive than what Germany previously imposed on Russia, the loss of land and reduced military damaged German pride. There is debate around whether the German government undermined defeat by portraying soldiers as victors, and if blaming all the war guilt on Germany dishonored soldiers. Historians have different views on whether Germans understandably saw themselves as victims due to being excluded from negotiations.

Wemar Germany - impact of hyperinflation
The hyperinflation crisis in early 1920s Germany severely damaged the country's economy and society. As the Weimar government printed more money to pay debts and rising costs, inflation increased dramatically until the currency became virtually worthless by late 1923. This devastated ordinary Germans as prices rose rapidly, wiping out savings and causing widespread poverty, hunger, and illness. While some profited, most people suffered tremendously. The hyperinflation crisis eroded faith in democracy and led many Germans to support extreme political positions. Historians believe this period undermined German society and paved the way for the later rise of the Nazi party.

Weimar republic
The document summarizes the political and economic turmoil in Germany following World War 1 and the Treaty of Versailles. It discusses the harsh terms imposed by the treaty, including war reparations and territorial losses. This created deep resentment in Germany and damaged the economy. In the early 1920s, hyperinflation crippled the country. The Nazis attempted to seize power in 1923 with a failed coup in Munich. Later in the decade, Gustav Stresemann helped stabilize the economy but the Great Depression caused another economic collapse, fueling further political instability and rising support for the Nazis.
History - problems of the german weimar government 1919 1923 (from bbc history)
The Weimar Republic faced significant opposition and instability from 1919-1923 due to several factors:
1) Economic hardship and the harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles led to widespread unrest and uprisings.
2) Violent opposition groups like Freikorps private armies and communist rebels staged numerous uprisings.
3) Right-wing terrorists assassinated over 350 politicians, weakening the government.
4) Events like the Kapp Putsch and hyperinflation crisis of 1923 further undermined the Weimar Republic.
Germany 1919 1945 revision facts book
- Germany was in a poor state after WWI with food shortages and unrest. The Weimar Republic was established with a democratic constitution. However, it faced significant opposition from communists and right-wing nationalists.
- The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh terms on Germany, fueling nationalist sentiment. Hyperinflation in the early 1920s caused economic devastation. The Nazis gained popularity by blaming the Weimar government for Germany's problems.
- Hitler was appointed Chancellor in 1933 and quickly consolidated power, establishing a fascist dictatorship. The Nazi regime suppressed opposition and persecuted minorities while promoting propaganda to maintain support.

Wemar Germany - long term effects of the treaty of versailles
The long-term effects of the Treaty of Versailles on Germany and the Weimar Republic are debated among historians. Some argue that the treaty helped undermine the Weimar government by fueling nationalist sentiment and anger at Germany's leaders who signed it. This increased support for radical right-wing parties and contributed to the Nazis rising to power. However, others maintain that factors like the German electoral system, fears of communism, and the worldwide Great Depression were also to blame for the Weimar collapse, rather than just the treaty alone. There are arguments on both sides of whether and to what extent the harsh treaty caused Germany's political instability in the early 20th century.
IGCSE REVISION - GERMANY: THE WEIMAR REPUBLIC
IGCSE REVISION - GERMANY: THE WEIMAR REPUBLIC.
The Weimar Republic was Germany's government from 1919 to 1933, the period after World War I until the rise of Nazi Germany. It was named after the town of Weimar where Germany's new government was formed by a national assembly after Kaiser Wilhelm II abdicated.
Weimar Germany - Foreign policy (‘erfullungspolitik’)
Stresemann pursued a policy of fulfilling the terms of the Treaty of Versailles to improve Germany's relations with the Allies and negotiate changes from 1924-1929. This included renegotiating reparations payments, signing treaties like Locarno recognizing borders, joining the League of Nations, and withdrawing Allied troops from Germany. While this strategy reduced reparations and gained concessions, it faced criticism from nationalists for accepting Versailles and did not fully satisfy ordinary Germans.
Weimar Germany - Challenges from the Right
Right-wing and nationalist groups violently challenged the new Weimar government through various revolts and assassinations from 1919-1923. The first major revolt was the 1920 Kapp Putsch, led by Wolfgang Kapp, which saw 12,000 Freikorps members seize control of Berlin for a brief period. From 1919-1922, the secretive Organisation Consul group murdered over 350 people, including prominent politicians like Walther Rathenau. Another key challenge was the 1923 Munich Putsch led by Adolf Hitler, where Nazis took control of Munich for a day before the revolt was suppressed. While these challenges failed to overthrow the government, the lenient treatment of right-wing revolutionaries encouraged further instability.
The Republic of Weimar (IGCSE)
The document discusses the Republic of Weimar period in Germany from 1919 to 1929. It describes how the Weimar Republic was a parliamentary democracy but faced significant challenges. The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh terms on Germany that caused widespread resentment. Economic problems including hyperinflation in 1923 further eroded support for the new democratic government. Both communist and nationalist extremist groups opposed the republic and attempted to overthrow it through uprisings and coups. By the later 1920s, the Weimar Republic had stabilized under new leadership but remained vulnerable to the growing Nazi party.
Germany & the great depression
The Great Depression had severe negative consequences for Germany's economy which was dependent on foreign trade and capital. As production levels declined and workers were laid off, inflation set in making it difficult for many German citizens to afford necessities, and many fell into poverty. The economic troubles contributed to the unraveling of Germany's democracy, culminating with Adolf Hitler and the Nazis winning the 1932 elections and Hitler becoming chancellor. Under Hitler, Germany transitioned to a fascist economy focused on autarky and military spending, which helped lower unemployment by 1935.
Germany After WWI
Germany faced severe economic and political instability following World War I that created conditions for Hitler's rise to power: 1) Runaway inflation destroyed the economy as the government printed money to pay war debts; 2) No single political party could gain control amid over a dozen factions, allowing extremists like the Nazis to take advantage; 3) The humiliating Treaty of Versailles left Germans seeking a leader to restore national pride and rearm the country. When the Great Depression hit with mass unemployment, Hitler blamed the government and promised to return Germany to greatness, appealing to the desperate populace.
Hitler and Nazi Germany - the weimar republic
The Weimar Republic was established in Germany after World War 1 and the abdication of the Kaiser. It introduced the first democratic constitution for Germany, which established a republic with elected representatives and civil rights. However, the system faced issues like instability from short-lived coalition governments and the representation of extremist parties, fueling distrust among some Germans.
REVISION IGCSE CAMBRIDGE HISTORY: RUHR
The French and Belgians occupied the important manufacturing region of Ruhr in Germany in 1923 because the German economy was weak after World War 1 and could not afford to pay reparations. This led the French and Belgians to take control of Ruhr to obtain payments. The Ruhr Germans responded with strikes and non-cooperation in a campaign of "passive resistance." The occupation resulted in rising unemployment in Germany, shortages of goods, high inflation, and further undermined the fragile Weimar Republic.

5. impact of nazi foreign policy
1) Nazi Germany pursued an aggressive foreign policy aimed at expanding German territory and dominance under Hitler's goal of Lebensraum.
2) This foreign policy had significant economic and social impacts on Germany by increasing military spending and jobs, gaining new resources from annexed lands, and instilling national pride but also took workers from private industry.
3) Hitler's foreign successes enhanced his reputation among Germans and helped consolidate his power until the start of World War 2, though some feared the prospect of war bringing devastation.
The Rise of Hitler - Circumstances in Germany
Lesson 1 of 4: The Rise of Hitler - Circumstances in Germany
In this lesson, we studied how the circumstances in Germany contributed to Hitler's rise to power. First, we made connections between what we studied in Chapter 1 (Treaty of Versailles and the League of Nations) and the start of Chapter 3. Then, we looked at the three major issues in Germany: the weakness of the Weimar Government, the problem of hyperinflation, and the severe impact of the Great Depression.
Nazi Germany - youth and educational policies
The Nazis aimed to control and indoctrinate German youth through education and youth groups to support the regime for generations. Boys and girls were divided into separate groups from ages 6 to 18 focused on traditional gender roles to produce strong men and mothers. At school, children received a Nazi-focused education from teachers who underwent Nazi training, with lessons shaped to promote Nazi ideology especially in subjects like history and biology. However, historians note the indoctrination's effects were limited and many youth began rebelling against forced membership near World War 2's start, and 12 years of Nazi rule did not completely erase previous cultural influences.
Hitler and Nazi Germany - economic problems in the weimar republic
The Weimar Republic faced two major economic crises in the early 1920s: hyperinflation and the global Depression in the late 1920s. Hyperinflation destroyed the German economy in 1923 as the currency became worthless, impoverishing many. The Depression starting in 1929 caused mass unemployment in Germany. These economic crises severely weakened the Weimar Republic and led many Germans to support extremist parties like the Nazis who promised relief, helping Hitler rise to power.
Hyperinflation
1) In 1923, Germany was unable to pay war reparations to France and Belgium after World War 1, so French and Belgian troops occupied the Ruhr region, Germany's industrial heartland.
2) The German government ordered workers to go on strike in protest. With no goods being produced, Germany faced severe money shortages and resorted to printing more money.
3) Hyperinflation quickly set in as the newly printed money became worthless. By late 1923, prices were billions of times higher than earlier in the year, impoverishing the middle class and destroying savings.

Hitler and Nazi Germany - economic problems in the weimar republic
The Weimar Republic faced two major economic crises in the early 1920s: hyperinflation and the global Depression in the late 1920s. Hyperinflation destroyed the German economy in 1923 as the currency became worthless, impoverishing many. The Depression starting in 1929 caused mass unemployment in Germany. These economic crises severely weakened the Weimar Republic and led many Germans to support extremist parties like the Nazis who promised relief, helping Hitler rise to power.
Hyperinflation
1) In 1923, Germany was unable to pay war reparations to France and Belgium after World War 1, so French and Belgian troops occupied the Ruhr region, Germany's industrial heartland.
2) The German government ordered workers to go on strike in protest. With no goods being produced, Germany faced severe money shortages and resorted to printing more money.
3) Hyperinflation quickly set in as the newly printed money became worthless. By late 1923, prices were billions of times higher than earlier in the year, impoverishing the middle class and destroying savings.
Reasons the Nazis gained power - economic difficulties
As punishment for World War 1, Germany was required to pay massive reparations to the Allied powers. Germany struggled to pay and faced economic difficulties including hyperinflation in the early 1920s which destroyed lives and savings. The Great Depression in 1929 further hurt Germany with high unemployment boosting support for extremist groups like the Nazis who opposed the current government and promised change. However, other historians argue factors beyond just the economy influenced Nazi support.

Hitler's economic policy
Hitler implemented several economic policies in Nazi Germany between 1933 and 1939. He arrested trade union leaders and replaced them with the Nazi Labour Front. Workers were not allowed to be employed or have their wages set without approval from the Labour Front. Public works projects like expanding the autobahn and increasing military spending provided many new jobs and helped reduce unemployment. However, by 1939 Germany was still heavily dependent on imports and government spending and debt had increased dramatically.
At the inception of 1989 barley anyone in Germany, both in the wes.docx
At the inception of 1989 barley anyone in Germany, both in the west and east, had prophesied that the 40th anniversary of the GDR in the fall would furthermore be its last, that the Berlin Wall would promptly fade and that Germany, which remained divided into two states, would be United. No individual had thought that, as a result, the political constellations that had ordered post-War European politics elongated than forty years would cease. But everything changed; all at once history would start to just take off at that kind pace. (The fall of the Wall and German reunification)The expedition of the developments also caught spectators by shock. A brief ten months after the collapse of the Berlin Wall the negotiation of the ultimate settlement was acknowledged on September 12, 1990, this would cover the process for the reunification of Germany.
In Consequence Of the Fact, German Unity, which in legal terminologies was concluded on October 3, 1990 with the extension of five federal states "to the area of validity of the Basic Law of the Federal Republic of Germany," (Facts about Germany) triggered abundant shared satisfaction, buoyed by the assurance of being capable to shoulder the responsibilities of the unification process. What emerged though was what Bertolt Brecht once termed "the trudge across the flatlands." The hurdles many Germans possessed with their newly achieved sovereignty were the consequences; scarcely anyone had been expecting it, later at the rate in which it took off - no individual was used to.
The value of German Unity increased still faster despite its most skeptical evaluations had expected. The people in the east had to strengthen the social accountability of unity and, naturally, the people in the west had to shoulder the financial aspects
As the economic alliance move onward, elements that had been recognized but inadequately appreciated in advancement began to surface. There was widespread perplexity about property titles. More than 2 million applications on properties within the territory of the late Global Depository Receipt existed designated deadline of December 31, 1992. As more claimants emerged, with countless winning positions in the courts, potential investors were commonly alarmed and determined that investing may not be a intelligent move after all.
A Further barrier was that East German manufactured product price had been considerably high-priced. The exchange prices of East German marks to deutsche marks oftentimes retained high costs, as did the early pay trade-offs, which concluded in salaries being considerably above the productivity level. Western German firms discovered it simpler and more affordable to work with the eastern German markets by increasing production in western facilities.
The third predicament was the inadequate infrastructure also presented a predicament for the various possible investors. Telephone service was developed somewhat gradually; several investors also protested.
Hitler's germany lesson 5 hitler's economic policies
Hitler consolidated his power through several means: the Reichstag Fire allowed him to pass the Enabling Act, which gave him dictatorial powers and outlawed other parties. He initiated public works programs to reduce unemployment while providing infrastructure. The Nazi government gained control over the German economy by subsidizing important industries, spending huge amounts on the military, and abolishing trade unions to curb workers' rights and control wages. While working conditions were restrictive and benefits reduced, the Nazis sought to appease workers through propaganda promoting a national community with full employment and cheap leisure activities.
1923- The year of crisis
This is a powerpoint about 1923 and how the crisis in this year affected Germany, Hitler and the Weimar Republic.
Ppt on hyper inflation in germany
The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh penalties on Germany after World War 1, including massive reparations payments. As Germany struggled to pay these reparations, they resorted to printing more currency which led to hyperinflation as the value of the German mark plummeted. By 1923, prices were rising so rapidly that menus could not be updated quickly enough. France and Belgium occupied German industrial areas like the Ruhr Valley to seize goods as payment. This caused shortages and worsening inflation as more marks were printed. In November 1923, Germany introduced a new currency, the Rentenmark, to stabilize prices and ended the hyperinflation crisis.
Ppt on hyper inflation in germany
The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh penalties on Germany after World War 1, including massive reparations payments. As Germany struggled to pay these reparations in gold marks, the value of the German paper currency plummeted, leading to hyperinflation. By 1923, hyperinflation had spiraled out of control in Germany, as the printing of currency to pay debts reduced the mark's value drastically. In response, Germany introduced a new stable currency, the Rentenmark, in November 1923, which helped end the hyperinflation and allowed Germany's economy to begin recovering.
Germany
Germany has experienced significant political and economic changes throughout its history. It transitioned from independent states to unification in 1871 under Prussian leadership. Germany became a powerful nation but lost World Wars I and II, after which it was divided until 1990. Germany is now a highly developed economy and is the largest in the European Union. It plays an important leadership role in the EU and organizations like the G7 and G20. Germany has a skilled workforce and remains one of the top global exporters and traders.
Hyperinflation
The document provides information about a lesson on hyperinflation in Germany in 1923. It explains that Germany faced huge reparations payments after World War 1 that led to hyperinflation. When France and Belgium occupied the Ruhr region, Germany printed more money to keep paying workers, fueling hyperinflation. This caused money to become worthless, with devastating effects on everyday Germans. Workers would rush to spend wages before prices rose further. Savings were wiped out, and those on fixed incomes could not afford necessities. Hyperinflation undermined support for the Weimar Republic and fueled the rise of the Nazis.
Great Depression
The Great Depression was a severe worldwide economic depression that began in 1929 and lasted until about 1939. It was the longest and most severe depression of the 20th century. The document lists several key causes of the Great Depression including the aftermath of World War I which left many European nations in large amounts of debt, as well as the stock market crash of 1929 in the United States where stock values plummeted. The effects of the Great Depression were felt worldwide and included high unemployment, poverty, homelessness, and a decline in production and economic activity across many nations such as Germany, England, France, and Sweden. The Depression had significant political impacts as well, contributing to the rise of Adolf Hitler in Germany.
WEIMAR 1924-1929 ,, WEIMAR IN GERMANY.pptx
In the early years of the Weimar Republic from 1918-1925:
1) Germany transitioned to a democratic republic after World War 1 and the abdication of the Kaiser in 1918.
2) The republic struggled with unrest like the Spartacist Uprising of 1919 and Kapp Putsch of 1920.
3) Hyperinflation crippled Germany's economy in 1923 until the introduction of the Rentenmark stabilized prices.
4) Under Stresemann, Germany's international relations and economy improved through agreements like the Dawes Plan and Locarno Treaties.
Weimar R Grid
The Weimar Republic experienced some success between 1924-1929:
1. Weekly wages and industrial production increased as the economy stabilized due to American loans through the Dawes Plan.
2. Stresemann helped rebuild Germany's economy and signed international agreements like the Locarno Treaty that improved relations with neighbors.
3. Germany joined the League of Nations in 1926, showing it was reaccepted in the international community.
Jobs
Hitler implemented several public works programs and policies to drastically reduce unemployment in Germany. This included the National Labour Service which employed men in construction projects to build infrastructure like roads and schools. Germany also pursued national self-sufficiency through programs that developed substitutes for imported goods to create new domestic industries. Hitler further reduced unemployment by firing Jewish people from government jobs and pushing women out of the workforce to open more jobs for German men. Those who refused the new jobs offered could be sent to concentration camps. These changes benefited ethnic German men as they gained employment while Jewish people and women lost jobs and opportunities.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 05. HYPERINFLATION
Hyperinflation affected the German Papiermark, the currency of the Weimar Republic, between 1921 and 1923, primarily in 1923. It caused considerable internal political instability in the country, the occupation of the Ruhr by France and Belgium, and misery for the general populace.
The wonderful, fun world of the depression
The document summarizes how the Great Depression started in Europe due to the aftermath of World War I. Key factors included the severe damage across Europe from the war that needed rebuilding, heavy reparations imposed on Germany that it couldn't pay, and reduced trade as a result of a weakened German economy. As soldiers returned home, unemployment rose in countries that had relied on wartime production. The economic problems in Europe spread globally as countries invested less and traded less with one another.
Weimar Germany.
The document summarizes the key challenges facing Germany after World War 1 under the new Weimar Republic. It describes the political instability and economic ruin resulting from the war and Treaty of Versailles. Specifically, it notes Germany was subjected to reparations that crippled the economy and prevented recovery. This led the Weimar government to face growing opposition and be unable to restore pre-war stability or prosperity, threatening its viability.
The Great Depression
The document discusses how Germany was affected by the Wall Street crash of 1929 and the ensuing Great Depression. It notes that Germany's economy was already weak before the crash due to short term loans. When the crash occurred, American bankers recalled loans to Germany, eliminating a key source of funds. This exacerbated Germany's economic woes, causing unemployment to rise sharply as businesses closed and exports declined drastically. The social and political impacts within Germany intensified as unemployment spread to workers across many industries. Economic hardship grew and discontent with the Weimar government increased.

Sources A and B provide differing interpretations of the early growth of Protestantism in Scotland in the 1550s-1560s. Source A emphasizes that many Scots were dissatisfied with the Catholic Church and open to Protestant ideas due to works criticizing the Catholic Church. Source B stresses the impact of Protestant preachers like John Knox and the support of powerful lords and the passing of laws against Protestant literature.
Source C outlines the Second Book of Discipline's vision of an independent Kirk governed by presbyteries and assemblies rather than bishops or the Crown. It notes James VI's opposition to these plans in 1581, with Presbyterians believing the King should submit to the Kirk, while the King and nobility disagreed
Higher Migration and Empire - reasons for emigrant scots' success
The document discusses reasons for the success of many emigrant Scots in building new lives in other parts of the British Empire from 1830-1939. It states that Scots often succeeded due to factors like their nationality, English language abilities, education levels, reputation for hard work, skills in demanded fields, establishment of businesses and communities, and support from the British government and other Scots abroad. However, not all emigrant Scots found success, as some faced problems like poverty, unemployment, and loneliness in their new homes.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Education
The 1944 Education Act aimed to improve education access and outcomes in Britain. It raised the compulsory school leaving age to 15, providing all children a minimum of secondary education. At age 11, children took an exam that determined if they attended an academic-focused senior secondary school or trades-focused junior secondary school. However, the exam system was criticized for penalizing poorer students and determining children's futures too early. Labour also introduced new school buildings to replace those damaged in war and accommodate growing student populations, though secondary schools remained outdated in many areas.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Health
The NHS was established in 1948 by the 1945-51 British government to provide universal healthcare access, treating all medical problems freely at the point of use based on need rather than ability to pay. It aimed to eliminate disease by offering healthcare to all British citizens, over half of whom previously lacked medical coverage. While popular, the NHS also proved very expensive to run and faced initial shortages of hospital facilities and medical staff that limited treatment effectiveness and access.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Housing
The New Towns Act of 1946 aimed to tackle overcrowding and improve housing conditions in Britain by building new towns with homes. 14 new towns were established by 1951, moving people from city slums to new communities built in the countryside. However, these new towns initially lacked jobs and local facilities, requiring long commutes. Additionally, while the government set targets to build over 1 million new homes by 1951, housing shortages remained an issue as only around 800,000 new houses were completed. Prefabricated housing provided a temporary solution to the shortage but was meant to last only 10 years though many prefab homes stood for decades.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Poverty
The Family Allowances Act of 1946 provided weekly payments to mothers with two or more children to help families struggling financially, especially those where fathers had died in war. However, it did not help families with only one child and payments stopped at age 18. The National Insurance Act of 1946 built on previous acts to provide benefits like sickness, unemployment, old age pensions and other benefits by requiring weekly contributions from working-age people. However, the poorest still struggled to pay and the National Assistance Act of 1948 provided additional financial help for these individuals. Studies in York in 1936 and 1950 showed poverty levels falling from 36% to only 2% due to these welfare programs but benefits did not always keep up with inflation.
Labour social reforms 1945-51 - Unemployment
The Labour government nationalized several key industries like coal mining, steel production, electricity, and railways between 1946-1948. This was done to ensure these important industries were controlled by the country rather than private companies. Owners were compensated for the nationalized industries. Nationalization allowed the government to use tax money to fund unprofitable businesses and increase apprenticeships to reduce unemployment. However, nationalization was very costly and this high cost reduced funds available for other issues. Labour also introduced policies aimed at improving working conditions for workers through measures like paid holidays and secure jobs at docks. While some workers saw higher wages and better conditions, it may have discouraged companies from hiring more employees as it increased costs. Labour's home

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Weimar Germany - Economy 1924-29.pptx
- 2. From 1924-1929 there was various examples to suggest that the Weimar economy was improving. However there were also counter-arguments to suggest that Germany’s economy had not yet fully recovered from the effects of war and hyperinflation.
- 3. Germany’s industrial production was positive; output levels were higher than in 1913 (before World War One began). This meant that more goods were being produced in sectors such as coal, steel and iron, creating more job opportunities for workers.
- 4. However this was not true for all of Germany. Farm production was still well below 1913 levels. This meant two things: fewer agriculture jobs available, and lower wages. By 1929, German farm workers earned only around half of the average salary in Germany.
- 5. German exports were also doing well. Germany was selling more products (exports) to other countries. In 1924, German exports were worth 6.7 billion marks; this increased to 13.5 billion marks by 1929. All of this meant more job opportunities for Germans.
- 6. However at the same time Germany was also bringing in even more imports (goods from other countries). The difference between imports and exports is called the balance of payments. Having higher import levels means more money is leaving the country.
- 7. Most German workers were earning more money too. Average wages rose every year between 1915 and 1929. However there were still significant arguments between employees and employers. In 1928 there were 739 strikes in Germany, mostly concerning wages or working hours.
- 8. Unemployment also caused some concerns in Germany. Unemployment actually increased; in 1928, 15% of the working age population was unemployed, this increased to 18% by February 1929. However more people were covered by unemployment benefit, giving them an income.
- 9. Historians’ views • Eberhard Kolb: “it is generally accepted that the economic situation in Germany was highly precarious even before the world depression.” • Knut Borchardt: argues that the Weimar government spent more money than it could afford – including allowing unaffordable higher wages – damaging the economy • Carl-Ludwig Holtfrerich: says that business owners – not workers’ wages demands - caused economic problems as the businessmen failed to invest in their companies
