Introduction to Pierburg: Ihr Kampf ist unser Kampf<\/a><\/p>\n

When the German government signed the first post-war agreement with Italy on the recruitment of \u00bbforeign workers\u00ab in December 1955, it did not expect that by the time recruitment stopped in 1973, around 5 million people from Italy, Greece, Spain, Turkey, Morocco, Portugal, Tunisia, Yugoslavia and South Korea would come to Germany as so-called \u00bbguest workers\u00ab, including of course women. \u00bbThe industrial reserve army\u00ab \u2013 as a documentary film on this subject by Helma Sanders-Brahms from 1971 is called \u2013 was to sell its labour and provide a short-term solution to the shortfall in the West German labour market following the building of the Berlin Wall in 1961, doing so on the principle of rotation and specifically in lower-paid jobs. But: the migrant workers refused to acquiesce to the subordinate role given to them. As early as the 1950s and 1960s, almost 90% of the initial migrants returned to their countries of origin due to the disastrous working and housing conditions, or went to Switzerland, the Netherlands and France, where wages were higher \u2013 especially for women. The others remained, and, from the early 1970s, migrants in Frankfurt\u2019s west-end district battled against investors and poor housing, demonstrated for kindergarten places as well as against the dictatorships in Spain and Portugal. They also downed tools in factories due to the exploitative and discriminatory working conditions, for example at BMW (1972), Ford, or at Pierburg (1973), then the largest carburettor manufacturer for cars and aircraft, in Neuss in North-Rhine Westphalia. Segregation and racism manifest themselves, and in 1973 alone the editorial collective \u00bbexpress\u00ab recorded 334 on-the-spot strikes. A protest movement from which the protagonists\u2019 contemporaries can draw no small amount of inspiration.
