Résumé anglais |
East German television seems an appropriate subject of study in the context of the discurs of cold war culture. The GDR was not only unique for its permanent state of competition with the Federal Republic. It was also an ideal model with strong conformist tendencies in the socialist community of states. Located on the boundary and fault line of the Eastern and Western blocs, the GDR also served as an important transit country. It likewise had wide-ranging international relations and a cross-border, cross-system transfer of television programs. This exchange was actively used after the expansion of radio-relay networks in 1956, and was fed from a variety of television cultures from both sides.From the 1970s on, GDR-Television was cooperating with more than 70 countries and had contractual relations with over 50 television organizations. These external relations and its visible media presence abroad proved to be highly effective in its struggle for international recognition outside of the Soviet sphere of influence. They were a concrete way of exercising foreign policy while at the same time satisfying its desire to be taken seriously. Source : Éditeur (via OpenEdition Journals) |
