Abstract

After the fall of Berlin Wall, the East and West Germany faced a series of problems brought by the reunification. It was surprising to witness the unification of east socialist regime with west capitalism for the theorists. East Germany relied on subsidies from the government and investments from west Germany due to its low living standard and productivity level. The forty years of separation in culture values, political community, and economic systems generates great obstacles for the union of the two Germanie.
