Richard Vahrenkamp: Lastkraftwagen und Logistik in Deutschland 1900 bis 1955: Neue GeschŠftsfelder, neue Kooperationsformen und neue Konfliktlinien
Trucks and Logistics in Germany, 1900 to 1955:
New Business Fields, New Forms of Cooperation and New Lines of Conflict
Abstract: The paper shows the development of truck transport as
a new kind of carrier by road in Germany. The two modes of transport –
for own account and for hire and reward – are distinguished and both
sectors are characterized. Forms of institutionalizations in the road haulage
industry are explored. The conflict between railroad and the road haulage
industry is discussed, and the only weak impact of the road haulage industry on
the business of the railroad is proven – contrary to the assessment of
the railroad. The paper shows how regulation of the road haulage industry is
performed in the context of the traffic policy of Nazi rule.
