History of the Inventory Designer: The "Gesetz zur Vorbereitung des organischen Aufbaus der deutschen Wirtschaft" of 27 Feb. 1934 "Wiederaufbaugesetz" (RGBl I 1934 p. 185f) created the legal basis for the reorganisation of the previous free association system. § 1 of the law authorized the Reich Minister of Economics: 1. to recognize trade associations as sole representatives of their branch of industry 2. to establish, dissolve or unite trade associations 3. to amend and supplement statutes and articles of association of trade associations, in particular to introduce the Führergrundsatz 4. to appoint and dismiss the leaders of trade associations and 5. to connect entrepreneurs and enterprises to trade associations. The organisational structure of the Organisation of Trade and Commerce (OGW), announced by Reich Economics Minister Schmitt on 13 March 1934, provided for a division of the economy into twelve main groups, seven of which were for the various branches of industry: I Mining, iron and metal extraction II Mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, optics, precision engineering III Iron, sheet metal and metal goods industry IV Stones and earths, wood, construction, glass and ceramics industry V Chemical, paper and paper processing industry VI Leather, textile and clothing industry VII Food industry. The First Regulation for the Implementation of the Law of Feb. 1934 (RGBl I 1934 p. 1194) issued by the Reich Minister of Economics on 27 Nov. 1934 eliminated this fragmentation of industry by combining the seven groups in the Reich Group Industry, into which the Reichsstand/Reichsverband der Deutschen Industrie was transferred by order of the Reich Minister of Economics on 12 Jan. 1935. The other main groups VIII Handwerk, IX Handel, X Banken and XI Versicherungen also became empire groups. The Reich Group Industry was at the same time part of the organization of the commercial economy, which was subordinate to the Reich Ministry of Economics. Together with the other groups of the Empire - crafts, commerce, banks, insurance companies, the energy industry, tourism (technical) and the chambers of commerce (regional) - it formed the subdivision of the Reich Economic Chamber. It was subdivided according to districts into 26 industrial departments, which established the link between the Reich Group Industry and the industrial enterprises. The individual specialist substructure of the Reich's industrial group was formed by the economic groups, which were recognised by an order of the Reich Minister of Economics as the sole representatives of their branch of industry. The companies operating in their respective fields were members of these groups, and the Reichsgruppe Industrie itself had no individual members. In 1941 the management of the Reich Group consisted of the following 13 departments under the direction of the Chief Executive Officer Dr. Karl Guth Abt. I Organisation and Law Abt. II Internal Administration, Transportation, Trade, Water and Administrative Law, Jewish Legislation Abt. III Taxes Abt. IV Foreign Trade Abt. V Sales Promotion, Patents, Samples and Symbols Abt. VI Defense Economics, Raw Materials Management, Industrial Development Division VII Air Security, Industrial Security and Industrial Protection, Colonial Affairs Division VIII Market Organisation and Business Administration Division IX Anti-Trust Supervision Division X Social Economy Division XI Industrial Quality Work Division XII Banking, Credit and Financial Affairs, Community Aid, Private Insurance Division XIII Statistics and Economic Observation Affiliated Services: Export Community for War Equipment (AGK) From January 6, 1944, the following new structure applied: General Department for Industrial Departments Department Z Internal Administration, Budget, Community Aid, Insurance Issues Department I Organization and Law Department II Internal Economy (Raw Materials Management, General Production, Defense Economics, Water and Energy, Transport, Eastern European Economy, Technical Department Department Department Department). III Market Organization and Business Administration Abt. IV Taxes and Financial Matters Abt. V Social Economy, War Damage Abt. VI Foreign Trade Abt. VI Industrial Carriages, Trade Fairs and Exhibitions, Advertising Abt. VII Aircraft Safety Abt. VIII Statistics and Economic Observation Affiliated: Until Dec. 1934: Gustav Krupp von Bohlen-Halbach from Dec. 1934: Ewald Hecker, Head of the Reich Economic Chamber 1935: Ernst Trendelenburg, Chairman of the Supervisory Boards of Vereinigte Industrie-Unternehmnungen AG and Reichskreditgesellschaft AG from Dec. 1934: Ewald Hecker, Head of the Reich Economic Chamber 1935: Ernst Trendelenburg, Chairman of the Supervisory Boards of Vereinigte Industrie-Unternehmnungen AG and Reichskreditgesellschaft AG from Dec. 1934: Gustav Krupp von Bohlen-Halbach from Dec. 1934: Ewald Hecker, Head of the Reich Economic Chamber 1935: Ernst Trendelenburg, Chairman of the Supervisory Boards of Vereinigte Industrie-Unternehmnungen AG and Reichskreditgesellschaft AG from Dec. 1934: Ernst Trendelenburg, Chairman of the Supervisory Boards of Vereinigte Industrie-Unternehmnungen AG and Reichskreditgesellschaft AG. 1936: Gottfried Dierig, Christian Dierig AG and Head of the Industry Economic Group from Nov. 1938: Wilhem Zangen, General Director of Mannesmann-Röhrenwerke In addition to the advisory board provided for by law, the so-called Great Advisory Board and numerous committees acted as advisory bodies for the Reich Group. In addition to the members of the advisory council, the heads of the economic groups and industrial departments as well as the chairmen of the 24 (1941) committees belonged to the Grand Advisory Board. The management of the committees was the responsibility of the relevant departments. Inventory description: Inventory history The largest part of the files of the inventory R 12 I Reichsgruppe Industrie originates from a complex of documents which was created after 1945 by the American occupation authorities in the Ministerial Collecting Center (MCC) in Hessisch-Lichtenau and Fürstenhagen. On behalf of the Americans, the files collected there were opened up and processed by German officials and employees in so-called working groups or sections. In this way, the working group XIX Economic Organization (Section Economics Organization) dealt with files of the Reich Economic Chamber and the Reich Industry Group. Via the Administrative Office for Economics in Minden and later the Administrative Office for Economics in Frankfurt/M., the documents finally came into the jurisdiction of the Federal Ministry of Economics in Duisdorf in 1951 in a strongly decimated form, and were then handed over to the Federal Archives in June 1952 after an initial inspection, pre-arrangement and separation of non-archival documents. In 1962 a further 128 volumes were taken over from the Berlin Document Center. Archival evaluation and processing The documents taken over from the Federal Ministry of Economics in 1952 were examined in 1966 and 1968 respectively by Archive Inspector A. Wagener (part 1) and Archivinspektor A. Loos (part 2), and provisional archive directories have been drawn up. Part 1 mainly contained documents from Divisions V Social Economy, VIII Statistics and Economic Observation and Z Community Aid to Enterprises. Part 2 was a collection of reference files of the deputy head of department of Abt. V Sozialwirtschaft and head of the war damages department Dr. Wilhelm Reuss. The files taken over from the Berlin Document Center in 1962 were processed in 1977 and listed as Part 3. Since the files were largely disorganized and often several subjects were in one volume without any factual connection, a complete reorganization and reshaping of volumes/volume sequences was necessary. In terms of content, these files also mainly concerned the Dept. V Social Economy. The revision of the holdings in 2009 using the Bundesarchiv's Basys-S directory database primarily involved the dissolution of the three existing partial holdings and the classification of the holdings as a whole. The hand files of Dr. Reuss, previously summarized as Part 2, now form, with a few exceptions, the War Material Damage Settlement Classification Group. The listing information from the previous provisional lists was largely taken over without further examination of individual files. In individual cases, however, adjustments had to be made to excessively long file titles and confusing content notes. Content characterisation: Mainly documents of the departments V Social Economy, VIII Statistics and Economic Observation, Z Community Assistance to the Economy and a collection of reference files of the deputy head of the department V Social Economy and head of the war damage department Dr. Wilhelm Reuss are available.
