| Abstract: | Features of managerial elites in East Germany are described by surveys among entrepreneurs and managing directors of companies with 50 to 1.000 employees. The paper deals with the following four dimensions: 1. the reproduction of economic elites (here as: e-elites) during the transformation period with its current consequences, 2. the development of "family capitalism" and processes of social closure, 3. qualification patterns of management, and 4. different attitudes of East and West German elites. Managers of state socialist combines are still a large proportion of e-elites of Eastern Germany. |
