QUESTION OF THE WEEK

QUESTION OF THE WEEK: How will electricity be generated in a hundred years’ time?

ARCHIV - Ein Geothermiekraftwerk in Landau in der Pfalz (Archivfoto vom 21.11.2007). Die Erdwärme wird sich nach Auffassung des Bundesverbandes Geothermie zu einer der wichtigsten Energiequellen der Zukunft entwickeln.

Fossil energy reserves are running out, and nuclear power is a controversial issue. Renewable energy still has a long way to go. So what does the future hold, for instance when it comes to producing electricity?

COMING UP on MADE IN GERMANY

Skilled worker shortage in China - looking for qualified employees

Das Service Zentrum für die Erschließung der Talentressourcen ist eine Vermittelungsinstitution Chinas. Aufgenommen von Xiao Xu in Beijing am 09.12.2008.

The market for automation technology is booming in China. And that's good news for the medium-sized German firm Festo, which has produced here for some time. But it's only turns out basic parts so far.

Not Business As Usual

Criticism of the market economy is growing, many people are asking whether capitalism has failed and what the alternatives are.

Familiy Business

"Made in Germany" tells the story of the country's family enterprises, their traditions and their business concepts.

Handmade in Germany

"Handmade" has almost become an anachronism but in small German businesses, age-old traditions live on and continue to be developed.

The World Champions

Many of the world's leading small and medium sized enterprises come from Germany. We meet some here.

    This is the work of a professional

    MADE IN GERMANY presenter Julia Böhm is being styled for the program, and appears in a precisely conceived interplay of varying silver-gray tones. As the combination of silky shimmering materials and delicate wool reveals, this is the work of a professional. Sean St. Lewis finally finishes off Julia’s styling with an elegant necklace.

  • The energy of the wearer ...

    The energy of the wearer ...

    As a stylist, Sean St. Lewis has a clear goal: the clothing that he selects should emphasize the personality of the wearer. "An outfit is so much more than just a few items of clothing," says the stylist “it’s the energy of the wearer that makes that outfit individual.”

  • Bags full of dresses and jewelry

    Bags full of dresses and jewelry

    Sean has been working in the fashion industry for 20 years. He’s worked in New York, Paris and Florence. His many contacts mean he often gets sent samples of clothing and accessories. “I recently received a huge package full of jewelry by the Italian designer Gogo Philip,” Sean enthuses, “you actually can’t get these necklaces in Germany yet.”

  • Less can be more

    Less can be more

    Julia Böhm takes a look on the accessories - a wide gold bracelet has caught her eye. But the editor in charge of the show says no – too much gold doesn’t sit well with the program’s image.

  • Think out of the box

    Fashion for MADE IN GERMANY

    Think out of the box

    The MADE IN GERMANY studio is a Blue Box, and if she were dressed in blue she’d disappear into the background leaving only her hands and head visible. Luckily, every color also appears in an endless variety of hues, and Sean knows them all. If it can’t be blue, then perhaps a robust purple – “think out of the box” is another of this New Yorker’s mottos.

    Last finishing touches

    The dress needs to be tugged into place here and there – the finishing touches are being made to English presenter Sabrina El Ahl’s outfit before she can go into the studio.

  • Camera, action…

    Camera, action…

    Even though styling for tv doesn’t have to be completed quite as quickly as for a fashion show, it’s still quite nerve-racking nevertheless. How’s the outfit going to look on screen, does the presenter feel comfortable? Sean can’t relax until the recording’s in the bag.

  • A passion for fashion

    A passion for fashion

    Sabrina El Ahl’s extravagant dress looked great on screen. Sean thinks the look is on the right track. But he’d like to see the presenters demonstrating a little more courage in future: Courage to follow trends and try out new colors – so be sure to watch this space…

Take a glimpse behind the scenes

"Your first impression is your last impression," says Sean St. Lewis and he lives wholly by this motto. Now he’s sharing his intuitive sense of styling with our presenters.

Black Gold from the Lausitz - The Renaissance of Lignite: Dismissed as dirty fuel not so long ago, brown coal is now celebrating a comeback. As Germany phases out its nuclear power plants, lignite will help to fill the gap in electricity production.

Though the number of women in management positions is slowly increasing, they are still very much a rarity and a gender-balanced workforce is far from view. In Germany, this has led to discussions of a female quota. In the meantime, more and more highly qualified women are entering the fields of mathematics, informatics, engineering and science.

Insolvent drugstore chain Schlecker is closing over 2,000 stores, costing the jobs of several thousand staff. State-supported temporary employment companies are to secure the livelihoods of those affected while preparing them for new jobs. Made in Germany met some former staff and checked out one of the new transitional companies.

Never has filling up your car been as expensive in Germany as in March 2012. The gas station chains that dominate the market all raise their prices in steady increments. The independents try to put up some resistance. But they are overruled by the nearly monopolistic position of the major providers. Made in Germany looks at the David and Goliath price war.
