Who actually was Franz Oppenheimer?
Born in Berlin in 1864, died in Los Angeles in 1943.
After studying medicine and working as a doctor, the man who gave his name to our Frankfurt residential complex turned to socio-political issues. In 1909 he was one of the co-founders of the German Sociological Society and received his doctorate for a second time in the same year, this time as Dr. phil. From 1919 to 1929, he held the first professorship for sociology and theoretical national economics in Germany at the Goethe University. Oppenheimer was a mastermind of the social market economy, which his doctoral student Ludwig Erhard introduced in Germany after the Second World War – his thoughts on liberal socialism as a “third way” between capitalism and communism have lost none of their relevance. The self-confessed Zionist was expelled from Germany by the National Socialists in 1933 and taught for a time in Palestine. Further stations took him to Japan, China and the USA.
