The Bayer AG was cut off from the quinine world trade by the quinine cartel, existing mainly of Great Britain, France and Netherlands, during the Great War. Being unable to purchase ingredients to produce malaria drug Bayer decided to develop synthetic active ingredients to treat malaria patients. This was an innovative approach to the malaria problem by Bayer’s research department accompanied with an organizational change. This paper analyzes th…
Innovationsmotor Medientechnik – Von der Schreibmaschine zur «Mittleren Datentechnik» bei der Siemag Feinmechanische Werke (1950 bis 1969)
The second half of the 20th century is commonly considered to be a time in which German companies lost their innovative strength, while promising new technologies presented an enormous potential for innovation in the US. The fact that German companies were quite successful in the production of medium data technology and had considerable influence on the development of electronic data processing was neglected by business and media historians alike…
Unternehmen und medialer Wandel – Skizze eines Forschungsfelds
This article takes up recent approaches in media studies and asks to what extent they can provide impulses for business history. Especially since the beginning of digitalization, individual media have merged into complex media ensembles. Media are therefore increasingly understood as conditions of cooperation and interaction between people, i. e. as socio-technical systems. Picking up on this, the article offers some preliminary thoughts on how t…
Initialzündung oder Katalysator einer wettbewerbsorientierten Verkehrspolitik? Die Untätigkeitsklage und Verurteilung des Rats durch den EuGH im Mai 1985
The European Court of Justice condemned the EC-Council (of transport ministers) in an unprecedented process for inaction in the realisation of a common transport policy on 22nd May 1985. The Court confirmed the plaintiff’s (the European Parliament) statement of claim that the Council hadn’t met his obligation to enact a competition order, to provide freedom services in crossborder transportation and to regulate access to domestic transport market…
EC competition law and the idea of “open networks” (1950s–1980s)
Competition policy has been on the top of the European Community’s political agenda since the construction of a European Common Market in the 1960s. A comprehensive body of law was created to eliminate market dominance, cartels or state aid and to control mergers and competition. A key issue of the EC competition law was the Council Regulation 17/62, which established the idea of ‘openness’ of competition in European market law for the decades to…
Comparing Cultures of Expert Regulation
Infrastructures in the transport and communication sectors were high on the agenda of supranational European integration after 1945. Nevertheless, European cooperation continued on well-trodden paths. New European organisations were established with an institutional design that built on established governance structures from the interwar period or even earlier. This article seeks to explore continuities in the governance of cross-border infrastru…
Cross-Curtain Radio Cooperation and New International Alignments during the Cold War
The transformation of the international system in the 1970s had remarkable consequences for East-West relations in the field of international radio communications. The two opposing blocs were compelled to join forces in an international system that was in a state of flux. Third World countries had started putting forward their demands for a “New International Information Order” and increasingly exerted pressure to achieve a reallocation of the sp…
Airy Curtains
After the Second World War, the infrastructural connections between the Western and the Eastern part of Europe were subsequently cut. The sealing of the passages through the Iron Curtain did not, however, succeed entirely. One increasingly important breach was generated by radio frequencies, which carried broadcasting programs, for example, from Radio Free Europe, straight across the Iron Curtain. This paper analyses the negotiations on the broad…
Airy Curtains in the European Ether
Property Rights on a Cold War battlefield
This paper analyses the international regime governing the use of broadcasting frequencies in the long and medium wave bands in Europe from 1950 until 1970. It tries to fathom what prevented the regime from collapsing, even though Cold War political tensions increased incentives to break international rules. The overall intention is to contribute to a better understanding of management institutions for open access resources. Special attention is …
Competition for European competence
Since the nineteenth century, the Central Commission for Navigation on the Rhine (CCNR) has negotiated regulations for Rhine navigation. In 1958, the European Economic Community (EEC) kicked off competition with the CCNR by starting to formulate a Common Transport Policy (CTP) that included Rhine navigation. At that time, inland navigation on the Rhine found itself in an economic crisis. Each organization tried to resolve the crisis in a differen…

Creating Transnationality Through an International Organization
The paper will consider the transnationality of television activities carried out under the umbrella of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) between the 1950s and the 1970s. Two examples, which represent important services of the EBU, will be compared: Eurovision and the EBU Screening Sessions. Both coordinated the exchange and selling of television programmes throughout Europe. Both resulted in a large number of transnational events and experie…
Mobility and European Integration
The European Conference of Ministers of Transport (ECMT) was founded in October 1953 as a way for Ministries of Transport delegates to discuss and make decisions regarding regulations that are politically non-binding. Part of this decision making hinged upon coming to consensus on such contentious matters as supranationalism versus intergovernmentalism; transport professionals versus the non-expert political class; liberalism versus coordination.…
