About the Book

Der Fall Contergan gilt als grosster Arzneimittel-Skandal der deutschen Geschichte. Das 1957 eingefuhrte Schlaf- und Beruhigungsmittel avancierte bis zum Fruhjahr 1960 zu einem der meistkonsumierten Arzneimittel in der Bundesrepublik. Der wirtschaftliche Erfolg war wesentlich bedingt durch eine aggressive Vermarktungsstrategie, die das Mittel als gefahrlos und vollig ungiftig bewarb. Der in Contergan enthaltene Arzneistoff Thalidomid konnte bei Erwachsenen aber schwerwiegende Nervenschaden auslosen und fuhrte bei Einnahme in den ersten Schwangerschaftswochen zu schwersten Wachstumsschadigungen beim Embryo. In der Bundesrepublik kamen zwischen 4.000 und 5.000 betroffene Kinder zur Welt. Als die fruchtschadigende Wirkung Ende November 1961 publik wurde, sah sich der Hersteller Grunenthal gezwungen, das Mittel vom Markt nehmen. Der Fall weitete sich zu einem erschutternden Skandal aus, der auch staatliche Instanzen mit einbezog. Eine zentrale Rolle spielte dabei das Land Nordrhein-Westfalen. Da die Aufsicht uber das Gesundheitswesen in den 1960er Jahren hauptsachlich den Bundeslandern oblag und der Hersteller in Stolberg bei Aachen sass, fiel das Praparat in die Zustandigkeit der nordrhein-westfalischen Landesbehorden. Zum anderen lag die strafrechtliche Verfolgung des Falles im Amtsbereich der nordrhein-westfalischen Justiz. Vor diesem Hintergrund beleuchtet die Arbeit die Rolle der staatlichen Arzneimittelaufsicht bis zur Marktrucknahme Contergans, die gesundheits- und sozialpolitischen Reaktionen des Landes und die strafrechtliche Aufklarung des Falles Contergan, die zu dem bis dahin umfangreichsten Strafrechtsverfahren der neueren deutschen Geschichte fuhrte.
