Iranica.com - GERMANY (9647 words)
Despite this promising start, the Persian expectations were left unfulfilled for the time being because Persia's interest in an intensification of the relations did not tally with Bismarck's declared continental bias and his interest in good relations with Russia.
Germany's passivity was maintained more or less up to the outbreak of World War I, despite the fact that from early 1914 onwards German diplomats and tradesmen in Persia had been questioning the value for Germany of the Potsdam Agreement in view of the rigorous semi-colonial conduct of the Russians.
After the promising start at the beginning of the 1980s and until its own demise in 1990, the GDR failed to acquire the large-scale trade relations with Persia for which it had hoped and which had once seemed to be attainable.
Archived: The Educational System in Germany: Case Study Findings; Chapter 4 - Transition from School to Work (2470 words)
Teachers agreed that it is relatively easy for a student in Germany to find out how to enter a given vocational field–the student simply reads the career information brochure for the intended field and follows the recommended path towards meeting the entry requirements for the apprenticeship or university training program.
Hamilton (1994) has characterized education and employment in Germany as having high "transparency" and low "permeability." Transparency refers to the ease with which a student can plot a course from school to work for any type of career, i.e., the more formalized the entry requirements are for most jobs, the more transparent the system.
In contrast, permeability refers to how easy it is for a student to move from one point to another in the system: in other words, how difficult or easy it is to change career goals once he or she has embarked on an occupational path.
