This group could also include so-called cultural multipliers, especially the scholars who came individually as guest professors and played a part in helping the Federal Republic rejoin the international community. Because their expulsion from Germany after 1933 virtually wiped out German cultural life, the remigrants' reversal of the “brain drain” was of particular significance. The emigrants had made a large contribution to the leading position claimed by American scholarship since the 1930s.
