Abstract Material reconstruction after the First World War was closely linked to German reparations, yet it is curiously underrepresented in the historiography of the Treaty of Versailles as well as in studies on interwar Germany. In the Weimar Republic, political leaders, economic actors and large parts of the population supported the idea of sending building material and even labourers to neighbouring countries. This far-reaching planning process began before and continued after the signing of the peace treaty, as the Allies remained hesitant but not fully hostile to the German proposals. Material reparation potentially mobilized a wide range of goods and labour, and it was thus particularly prone to expectation, but also to disappointment in a broad segment of the population. Against the backdrop of war destruction and the international peace negotiations in 1919, this article investigates the way in which European reconstruction was discussed formally and informally in Weimar Germany. By focusing on the communicative channels and media that promoted German participation in building work abroad, it discusses how expectations were raised, managed and disappointed at the intersection of foreign and domestic policies. While there had only been minor destruction in German territory between 1914 and 1918, the republic’s political culture proved to be deeply affected by the material reconstruction on the European continent, even though most of the far-reaching plans did not result in building sites on the ground.

Recent studies have emphasized the role of international institutions in the emergence of a transnational culture of economic experts in the interwar period. According to this view, collaboration over the difficulties of international trade in goods and finance was driven by a common language of problem diagnosis and solution finding. This interpretation has pushed the relevance of the domestic context for ‘agents of the international’ into the background. The World Economic Conference in Geneva organized by the League of Nations in 1927 shows that Weimar business representatives saw their participation as an opportunity to improve their position in their national federations and vis-à-vis the Reich government. Therefore, on the one hand, they sought to be appointed by state authorities to participate in the Geneva discussions. On the other hand, they stressed the relevance of the World Economy as well as their competence in solving world economic problems. As a consequence, immediately before and after the meeting in Geneva, the World Economy was a prominent topic among Weimar’s business representatives. However, this strategy counted on the implementation of the conference’s economic policy proposals by national governments. As it became apparent that the Geneva recommendations would not have lasting impact, interest in the World Economy waned and its spokesmen turned to other forms of international cooperation, in particular regional customs alliances and cartel agreements. The rise and fall of the topic of the World Economy among German business representatives cannot be understood independently of its interaction with the domestic context of Weimar Germany.
