Problems, Problems: When Professors (in Germany) Are Too Successful \u2013 2<\/p>\n
\u201cIn fact, outside funding can have its disadvantages. Individual scientists are glad to accept it, but it can leave German university administrators with a bitter aftertaste. Of course any university is happy to be embellished with additional millions in government or foundation grants. Large amounts of outside funding are a seal of approval on the university\u2019s overall efforts and they will improve its ranking. However, Burkhard Rauhut, Rector of the Aachen University of Technology, explains that \u2018from a purely mathematical standpoint, outside funding is in the end like a partial subsidy for additional expenditures that German universities are thereby drawn into\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

Probleme, Probleme: Wenn der Professor (in Deutschland) zu erfolgreich ist \u2013 2<\/p>\n
\u201eTats\u00e4chlich ist der Erfolg beim Einwerben so genannter Drittmittel zwiesp\u00e4ltig. Was einzelne Wissenschaftler freut, verursacht bei deutschen Hochschulleitungen nicht selten einen bitteren Nachgeschmack. Zwar schm\u00fccken sich alle Universit\u00e4ten gern mit den Millionen, die staatliche Geldgeber oder Stiftungen f\u00fcr den Haushalt beisteuern. Hohe Drittmittel gelten als G\u00fctesiegel und werden in allen Rankings hoch bewertet. \u00bbRein rechnerisch jedoch ist jedes Drittmittelprojekt f\u00fcr die Universit\u00e4t ein Zuschussgesch\u00e4ft\u00ab, sagt Burkhard Rauhut, Rektor der RWTH Aachen.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe sort of progress made in the Netherlands has given the German government the incentive to start considering a sort of \u2018bureaucracy test\u2019, similar to the safety test required for motor vehicles. The plans call for a \u2018control council\u2019 to be set up, which in itself sounds somewhat bureaucratic but which would be a committee of experts who would examine every draft law to see if it is really necessary and to project what the real cost would be. The committee would have direct access to the Chancellor so that it could not be outmaneuvered by any government ministry. Fighting the law\u2019s supporters would then be up to the Chancellor.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTransparency could be useful here. In the contract that the political parties in Germany\u2019s current governing coalition have signed with each other, there is criticism of the fact that \u2018even today in Germany there exists no method of determining or predicting what bureaucratic costs are involved in any new law.\u2019 At least that should be changed in the future. Our neighbors, the Dutch, are setting us an example of how that can be done. Within five years, they want to be able to reduce by a quarter the costs of government bureaucracy for private business. It looks as though they may be able to reach that goal in only three years.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat had begun with such promise, though, proceeded by fits and starts. \u2018The bureaucracy has an incredible ability to persist, to go on existing\u2019, says Rothe. There\u2019s always someone who benefits from some rule or regulation \u2013 special interests in the legislature or in various organized groups, or civil servants who succeed stopping any dismantling in the framework of laws. They fear the end of their prestige and power, and often the end of some privilege they have. And that\u2019s when those who represent their interests swing into action. \u2018Dismantling bureaucracy is just as difficult as getting rid of government subsidies,\u201d Michael Fuchs observes, while even he complains about his colleagues. \u2018Even members of the legislature do everything they can to make sure certain regulations are kept on the books\u2019. They keep their client-constituents in mind just as lobbyists keep in mind the goals of those who hire them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWithin a short time, representatives from various towns and districts, from the labor office, from business and industrial organizations, and from government ministries had worked out specific steps to be taken to reduce bureaucracy. Above all, they wanted to shorten the protracted approval process that anyone starting a business in Germany has to deal with. They also wanted to get rid of nonsensical requirements for reporting various statistics.<\/p>\n
In April 2004, the German minister of economic affairs presented thirty-four specific suggestions for reducing bureaucracy to the federal cabinet. At least half of them came from the geographical area under consideration here.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ministry of Economic Affairs in Berlin had for a long time been asking for a regional approach to the problem of bureaucracy. The result: three test regions were given the opportunity of making a realistic attempt to solve the problem and to make suggestions that could be implemented on a nation-wide basis. The West Mecklenburg region under the supervision of the Schwerin Chamber of Commerce and Industry has been particularly active in this effort. The chamber\u2019s business director, Klaus-Michael Rothe, describes the struggle against rules and regulations in terms of the \u2018insane amount of time\u2019 required: \u2018The whole thing was much more difficult than we had even feared\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n
