Cover of Andreas Fickers: 'Politique de la grandeur' versus 'Made in Germany' (PDF)

Am Beispiel der gescheiterten Bemühungen, in Europa einen einheitlichen Farbfernsehstandard auszuhandeln, thematisiert diese interdisziplinär angelegte Studie die Komplexität internationaler Standardisierungsprozesse. Gleichzeitig leistet sie einen innovativen Beitrag zu einer politischen Kulturgeschichte der Technik. Technik wird als historisch gewachsene, sozial konstruierte und symbolisch aufgeladene Kulturleistung verstanden. Der historische Vergleich zwischen den beiden Hauptakteuren der Farbfernsehkontroverse Mitte der sechziger Jahre bietet einen erfrischenden Blick auf die Geschichte der deutsch-französischen Beziehungen im Kontext europäischer Technikentwicklung.
