Life

Krause grew up in Bützow and Neustrelitz , where his father worked as a lawyer and notary.

At the offer of his doctoral supervisor, who was a member of the FAZ Board of Trustees, he began working as an editor in the FAZ's business department in 1966. He liked this job so much that he finally turned down his family's offer to run the brewery.

As an editor, he fought for a liberal economic order and set “independent of praise and criticism from interest groups and colleagues, market-based signs also for agricultural policy” (as his colleague Dr. Kurt Reumann put it in an article on Krause's 80th birthday). In 1984 he wrote the pamphlet for a new agricultural policy for the Kronberger Kreis , which, somewhat expanded, also appeared as a book under the title Ordinance on Waste .

Krause's “unwavering firmness in principles was rewarded in 2001 with the Josef Ertl Medal , an award in memory of the former Agriculture Minister and FDP politician Ertl , which was awarded for the first time.” “Just as fearlessly, Krause fought after reunification in the business section, but also in the political part of the FAZ, for the return of expropriated property in Central Germany. ”In a feature section of the FAZ, he described the non-return of the expropriations from 1945 to 1949 by the Kohl government and the reason given for this that this was a condition the leadership of the Soviet Union under Mikhail Gorbachev, with reference to a book by political scientist Constanze Paffrath as "German Watergate".

Since 1991 Krause was responsible for the economic reporting of the FAZ. In April 1994 he also took on the role of managing director of the FAZit Foundation.

After 35 years, Krause retired in 2001 as an editor and at the end of 2003 as managing director and continues to work as a journalist, publicist and author.
