Life

Gerhard Kade was appointed to a newly created chair for statistics and econometrics at the TH Darmstadt on April 20, 1966 , and taught here until 1978. Due to his changed academic orientation, his subject area “ political economy ” was later renamed “political economy and planning”. In this planning-oriented subject area, students from the faculties of architecture and civil engineering studied in particular with a focus on urban development. After almost twelve years at the TH Darmstadt, Gerhard Kade left university and devoted himself to other tasks. His assistant Dirk Ipsen was appointed to the chair as his successor.

Gerhard Kade devoted himself to Marxist peace research . He belonged to the management - the "office" - of the Committee for Peace, Disarmament and Cooperation (KOFAZ) founded on December 7, 1974 , from which there were connections to the DKP and the SED . In 1978 he was out of the SPD ruled out because he had worked despite the ban in the communist-dominated committee. Kade was also a member of the Scientific Board of Trustees of the Center for Marxist Peace Research (ZMF), a subsidiary department of the DKP's own institute for Marxist studies and research , from 1987 to 1989 . As an unofficial employee of the Ministry for State Security of the GDR with the code name “Super”, Kade tried to influence the West German peace movement in the interests of the SED. The Pahl-Rugenstein publishing house , which published his books The Threat Lie and Generals for Peace and some other books of the peace movement, was also financed by the GDR. The SED was directly involved in Kade's book The Threat Lie. Kade also worked for the KGB under the cover name "Robust". For a time he was co-editor of the papers for German and international politics .
