  Posen Conference
Reichminister Albert Speer was present at this conference.
Further research however showed that Speer had in fact left the conference at midday - before Himmler spoke - to call in on Adolf Hitler at his headquarters.
By holding this conference, Himmler wanted to 'motivate' his audience by ensuring that they would not be able to plead ignorance of the Final Solution following a Nazi defeat.

 Working Paper 97-4: Lessons from the Bundesbank on the Occasion of Its 40th (and Second to Last?) Birthday   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The second intellectual pillar of the move to monetary targeting was a perception that medium-term inflation expectations had to be locked-in when monetary policy eased as inflation came down after the first oil shock.
The primary benefits gained from announced monetary targets in Germany are from the transparency which this framework confers on the exercise of discretionary policy - strict adherence to monetary aggregate growth as a formal intermediate target, and the rule-like constraint on policy that would imply, has not played a role in the Bundesbank's success.
This term was coined in Laubach and Posen (1997), which gives a more detailed analysis of the development of German monetary targeting and of the comparable Swiss framework.

 Individual Religious History:
After the stock market crash in 1929, the economic depression led to a National Catholic Welfare Conference in which social policies were constructed.
This coincides with the large immigration of Polish to the Midwest between the 1880s and World War I. Although none of my ancestors joined the Polish Catholics that formed the National Church of America, they did show strong signs of nationalism by continuing to speak Polish in their home.
My Grandparents continued this ethnic pride by moving to Posen, Michigan, an area largely populated with Polish Catholics, and incorporating the Polish “Black Madonna” into prayer rituals.

 Himmler's 10/04/43 Posen Speech
The speech was given in the city of Posen (or Poznan), in what is now Poland.
Himmler gave a speech to another audience two days later, and several others as well (Posen was a minor hub of the Nazi leadership), but the one of October 4th is so famous that if "Himmler's Posen speech" is referred to, it is this one.
As usual, he spoke from notes, but he had begun the practice of recording some of his talks on a red oxide tape wider than what is used today.

 The Posen Speech   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
But it seems clear that the Posen speech sets forth a series of factual and attitudinal observations that bear on two very important long cycle delusions of Western Europeans.
The stringency of the moral code applicable to within-group relations was carefully balanced by the generous notions of forgiveness - all isolating mechanisms which conferred a practical survival advantage upon being Christian during the decline of the Roman Empire.
And with that as background, it is time to transport ourselves back to October 4, 1943 and join the annual conference of SS officers, listening to their chief, Heinrich Himmler.

That part belongs with Speer, or as a footnote to a much more beefed up article about the Posen Conference.
The article doesn't say, it just offers a confusing paraphrasal which is simply designed to support the Speer commentary, which if it turns out that Speer didn't play much of a role, is not much of a basis for an article.

At the Oct. 6, 1943, conference at Posen, his effort to enlist Himmler's aid in forcing local party bosses to comply with his total mobilization sparked dissension, marking the end of Hitler's unqualified backing.
All of Speer's closest associates were present, and a strong case has been made that Speer was there, too.
Fest follows Sereny in concluding that Speer's claim to having remained ignorant of the Holocaust after the Posen speech (whether he was present or not) is scarcely credible.

Did those sources - the Posen speech, the Goebbels diary, the Wannsee Conference and the letter of July 31, 1941 - indicate any plan to exterminate European Jews?, asked Christie.
The Wannsee conference and the July 31 letter referencing it use cloaked language to refer to extermination, so the contrast would not be striking without making use of later testimony about Wannsee from, say, Eichmann:
A "rigorous time?" "Deported?" This has to be the most conservative interpretation of the word "liquidate" I have ever read.
