Mai 2000 Sehr geehrter Herr Botschafter, Meine Damen und Herren, Als junger Sozialist war Willy Brandt zu Beginn der Nazizeit gezwungen, seine Heimat zu verlassen. Norwegen wurde seine neue Heimat, und er wurde bald in der norwegischen Arbeiterbewegung aktiv. Ohne Zweifel muss der „Kniefall" von Warschau als das einem Als Folge der Integrationspolitik von NATO und EU hat Westeuropa sich schrittweise vom Nationalismus abgewandt.

Born Herbert Ernst Frahm on December 16, 1913, in Luebeck, Germany, the later Willy Brandt was the son of Martha Frahm, a young, single shopgirl. He later found out that his father was John Moeller of Hamburg, but he never met the man. Brandt was raised by his mother and maternal grandfather, both passionate Social Democrats. As a teen-ager Brandt first joined the Socialist Party of Germany (SPD) in 1930, but one year later switched to a more radical spin-off, the SAP. In 1933 he assumed the name Willy Brandt while going underground to avoid arrest by Hitler's Gestapo. The same year, he fled Germany for Norway, where he went to work as a radical journalist. In 1938, the Nazis stripped him of his German citizenship. He returned to Germany after the war and quickly became active in the Berlin SPD. In 1948, his German citizenship was restored, and the following year he was elected a member of West Germany's first parliament. A fierce anti-communist and pragmatic socialist, Brandt quickly made a name for himself in the SPD, which in 1957 chose him as its candidate for mayor of West Berlin. In this position, Brandt played a prominent role during the Berlin crisis of 1958-1962, particularly in August 1961 when the East German regime erected the Berlin Wall. At first imploring the Western allies to take strong action, Brandt quickly became a convert to a more pragmatic approach to the new situation, for example by working out with the East German government visitor arrangements for families separated by the Wall. It was the beginning of the later-to-be-famous "Ostpolitik," which sought to overcome the effects of the division of Germany and Europe on the basis of the recognition of its reality.

Willy Brandt: On the Road to a New Reality
The setting: The Hall of Mirrors, Versailles, January 1871: In the palace of the Bourbons, the rulers of Germany's 25 independent and quarrelsome states gather to savor the fruits of their victory over France's armies. The Franco-Prussian War has given the Germans something that eluded them for centuriesunity. As the architect of that unity, Count Otto von Bismarck looks on, gripping the long spike of his Prussian helmet, while Prussia's King Wilhelm proclaims the establishment of the German Empire. Historian Thomas Carlyle hails the German victory in a letter to the Times of London: "That noble, patient, deep, pious and solid Germany should be at length welded into a nation and become Queen of the Continent instead of vaporing, vainglorious, gesticulating, quarrelsome, restless and oversensitive France seems to me the hopefullest public fact that has occurred in my time." The setting: The Old Jewish Ghetto, Warsaw, December, 1970: His broad, ruggedly handsome face etched with lines of concern, West Germany's Chancellor Willy Brandt walks slowly to the simple granite slab that memorializes the 500,000 Jews from the city's ghetto who were massacred by the Germans during World War II. For a moment he stands with bowed head, enveloped in silence except for the soft hiss of two gas-fed candelabra. Then, as if to atone for Germany's sins against its neighbors, Brandt falls to his knees. "No people," as Willy Brandt has said, "can escape from their history."

Alfred Nobel soll die Idee eines Preises fuer Menschen, die fuer den Frieden arbeiten, erst spaet unter dem Einfluss von Bertha von Suttner in Betracht gezogen haben. Der erste Preistraeger war dann vor hundert Jahren Henri Dunant, der Gruender des Roten Kreuzes. Inzwischen ist dieser Preis gerade fuer Nichtwissenschaftler wichtiger als die anderen Preise geworden.
Vor dreissig Jahren, am 20. Oktober 1971, verlieh das Nobelpreis-Kommittee dem damaligen Kanzler der Bundesrepublik Deutschland Willy Brandt den Friedensnobelpreis.
Das Bild von ihm, das wahrscheinlich die meisten Menschen kennen, ist der Kniefall vor dem Denkmal des Warschauer Ghettos bei der Unterzeichnung des Warschauer Vertrages am 7. Dezember 1970. Auch das Nobelpreiskommittee wuerdigte neben seinem Streben nach Entspannung in Europa vor allem seinen Einsatz fuer die Verstaendigung mit den mittel- und osteuropaeischen Staaten.
Willy Brandt hat noch erlebt, wie die Mauer in Berlin fiel, die Aenderungen in Europa allerdings nur noch in ihren Anfaengen. Er starb 1992 im Alter von 79 Jahren. Uwe Hahnkamp

      < BACK TO HISTORY CONTENTS In the West German Bundestag elections of September 1969, the CDU/CSU remained the largest political group, holding eighteen more seats than the SPD. With the help of the FDP, which had earlier supported the candidacy of the SPD minister of justice Gustav Heinemann for the federal presidency, Willy Brandt was able to form an SPD-FDP coalition government, with himself as federal chancellor. The SPD-FDP coalition lasted until late 1982 and was noted for its accomplishments in the area of foreign policy. The formation of this new coalition forced the CDU/CSU into opposition for the first time in the history of West Germany.
      Willy Brandt
      When Brandt became chancellor in 1969, he proposed a new policy toward the communist states of Eastern Europe; this policy later became known as Ostpolitik (policy toward the East). In recognition of his efforts toward détente in Europe, he received the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1971. In the early 1970s, Brandt also engineered a package of treaties that normalized the FRG's relations with the Soviet Union and with Poland, the GDR, and other Soviet-bloc nations. He successfully withstood a vote of no-confidence in the Bundestag in April 1972 and won the Bundestag elections in November 1972 with an impressive relative majority of nearly 45 percent. Brandt resigned in May 1974, shocked by the discovery that one of his personal assistants, Günter Guillaume, was a spy for the GDR.

    Willy Brandt
    Brandt was born Herbert Ernst Frahm in Lubeck, Germany. He changed his name to Willy Brandt when he fled from the Nazis in Germany. When he was young he openly opposed the Nazis and he fled to Norway to escape arrest by them. He worked as a correspondent for newspapers in Norway from 1933 to 1945, and he was active in the anti-Nazis resistance.
    Brandt returned to Germany after World War II and was elected the lower house of parliament in 1949. He was a mayor of West Berlin from 1957-1966. From 1966 to 1969, Brandt was vice-chancellor and the foreign minister, and in 1969 Willy Brandt was elected chancellor of West Germany.
    In 1971, Brandt won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to reduce tensions between Communist and non-Communist nations. Under Brandt, West Germany signed nonaggression treaties with the Soviet Union and other European Nations. Brandt worked to normalize relations between East and West Germany and to reduce tensions between East and West Berlin.
    Willy Brandt retired in 1974, after it was discovered that one of his aides was an East German spy. Brandt denied knowledge of the aides spy activities, but he accepted full responsibility for the matter.

    Willy-Brandt-Gymnasium The "Willy Brandt Gymnasium"
    Maybe you want to know why our school is called "Willy Brandt Gymnasium". Well, a few years ago the pupils and the teachers had the choice between two famous people: Anne Frank and Willy Brandt. Anne Frank was a victim of the German terror during the Second World War against foreigners and especially Jews. Willy Brandt was a famous German politician. He died in 1992 after a successful life. He was the mayor of the German capital Berlin and the German chancellor. He got the Nobel Prize for his work for freedom, especially between East and West. Well, most pupils and parents voted for the name "Willy Brandt Gymnasium".
    Our school building is in the neighbourhood of two other schools. The "Hauptschule"and the "Realschule". There is also a church and a kindergarden in our neighbourhood. Our school, the "Willy Brandt Gymnasium", has two buildings, one for grade 5-10 and one for the Oberstufe. Our school has 28 classrooms. We have got a cafeteria. And wen also have rooms for special subjects: two Physics rooms, two Chemistry rooms, four Biology rooms, two Music rooms and two Art rooms. The teachers have got two staff rooms. When we have problems, we can go to the secretary's office.
    Our Timetable
    Usually we have thirty lessons a week. When you get older ( about 14 or 15 years) you tend to have seven or eight lessons a day. There is no school on Saturdays and Sundays. We have two breaks a day. The first break is from 9.35-9.55. The second one is from 11.30-11.50. One lesson lasts 45 minutes. We have two terms a year.At the beginning we get a new timetable.

    III. Alfred Nobel And The Nobel Prizes Alfred Nobel is the man who invented dynamite. He is better known today, however, as the man who established some of the most prestigious prizes in the world. Born in 1833 in Stockholm, Sweden, Nobel from his youth had a dream of inventing an explosive so devastating it would deter humans from making war. Instead, his invention made war easier. Though he was a Swede by birth, he was very much an international man, being educated in St. Petersburg, Russia, where his family moved when he was a child. In St. Petersburg, he studied with private tutors, particularly showing interest in chemistry and languages. He mastered Swedish, Russian, English, French, and German. At the age of 17 he began two years of educational travel throughout Germany, France, Italy and to the United States. Then at the age of 19 he became a chemist, working with his father in St. Petersburg. The family returned to Sweden and in 1863 he was a chemist in his father's explosives factory at Heleneborg near Stockholm. In 1864 Nobel received a patent covering detonating charges and percussion caps. Called "The Nobel Igniter," it was to be called at a later time "the greatest discovery ever made in both the principle and practice of explosives." His 1866 invention of dynamite revolutionized mining, road building and tunnel blasting. In 1875 a later improvement was patented as blasting gelatine. In 1887 he patented ballistite, the first of the nitroglycerine smokeless powders. This was to serve as the basis for cordite which was eventually to change the use of firearms.

Text Only 1970: Willi and Willy meet in East Germany The leaders of East and West Germany have met for the first time since the country was divided in 1949. About 2,000 young East Germans greeted West Germany's Chancellor Willy Brandt when he arrived at 0930 at the East German town of Erfurt to meet Prime Minister Willi Stoph for talks on improving East-West relations. As the two men crossed the square between the railway station and the Erfurt Hof Hotel, demonstrators shouted "Willy! Willy!". Then they changed their chant to "Willy Brandt!" to make clear which leader they supported. The large crowds surprised both Western journalists and the East German authorities who had made every effort to keep the area clear of spectators. They even kept children at school who would normally have had the afternoon off. Demonstrators called for Mr Brandt to come to the hotel window. He did so for a brief moment before getting down to the serious business of talks with his East German counterpart.
