1989 the Cold War ended. With the fall of the iron curtain the threat of a nuclear conflict disappeared. Military strategies and doctrines get revised, outdated shelters are deconstructed. World peace seems to be closer than ever. But the goverment of Germany still adhears to a policy of protection against nuclear or biological weapons in case of emergency. These shelters are not only dusty leftovers from another time, they are kept in repair and operative. New early warning systems are developed. „In case of emergency“, the state of Germany stores oat, wheat, rice, peas, beans, condensed milk and milk powder. In case of emergency the state of Germany builds up stocks of gasoline, diesel and crude oil. In case of emergency there are still autobahnen, bridges and points of strategic interests which are prepared for detonation or blocking by barricades. With the fall of the iron curtain and the end of the cold war, the secret files of war and strategy were opened. „In case of emergency“ tries to understand and picture this madness. How prepared have we been and how prepared are we now in case of emergency. |
