Connected Enemies? Programming Transfer between East and West During the Cold War and the Example of East German Television

Abstract

The article analyzes the international transfer of television programming during the Cold War as exemplified by East German television. The study focuses on the structures of imports of foreign content and on the feedback processes in cultural policy during the continuation of such imports. The article examines the hypothesis that programming transfer as practiced by East German television can be described as a shifting of the institution between disparate logics of politics and cultural policy and intrinsic dynamics of the medium.
