    Marktgeschehen (2024)
    Campus Verlag
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: »Der Markt« gilt gemeinhin als zeitloser und effektiver Mechanismus zum Tausch von Gütern und zur Bildung von Preisen. Dieser Band, der die Ergebnisse des von der DFG geförderten Netzwerks »Das Versprechen der Märkte« bündelt, problematisiert diese Annahme und zeigt, dass Märkte das Ergebnis historischer Praxis sind: Sie entstehen und existieren durch das Marktgeschehen selbst, das weit über die Markttransaktion hinausreicht und durch die jeweilige Gesellschaft geprägt ist. Die Beiträge machen marktbezogene Praktiken von der Frühen Neuzeit bis zum beginnenden 19. Jahrhundert sichtbar und verknüpfen sie transregional vergleichend miteinander. Ausgangspunkte der Sondierungen sind so unterschiedliche Aspekte wie die Gestaltung und Bemessung von Waren, Werbung als Medium, die Begrenzung von Gewinnen oder der Zugang zu Märkten. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0

    Grenzen im Aufstieg (2024)
    Campus Verlag
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Bergexpeditionen auf Himalaya-Gipfel wurden von reinen Frauenteams erstmals in den 1950er Jahren unternommen. Bergsteigerinnen eröffnete sich damit eine Möglichkeit, in die Männerbastion des Höhenbergsteigens vorzudringen. Martina Gugglberger verwendet diese Frauenexpeditionen als Linse, um Handlungsspielräume, Geschlechterverhältnisse, Netzwerke und biographische Hintergründe von Protagonistinnen im Höhenbergsteigen von 1955 bis 2014 zu untersuchen. Ihr Blick in die Geschichte des »Frauenalpinismus« verdeutlicht die lange Tradition von Ausgrenzung und Abwertung weiblicher Aktivitäten im Bergsport. Gleichzeitig veranschaulicht das Buch entlang politischer, sozialer und ethnischer Aspekte der Frauenexpeditionen, wie sich die realen und symbolischen »Grenzen im Aufstieg« für Bergsteigerinnen ein Stück weit verschoben. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0

    Fritz Bauer (2024)
    Campus Verlag
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Fritz Bauer ist als der Staatsanwalt in die Geschichte der Bundesrepublik eingegangen, der den Auschwitz- Prozess initiiert und in einer Vielzahl weiterer Fälle die Verfolgung von NS-Verbrechen in die Wege geleitet hat. In Büchern, Aufsätzen, Zeitungsartikeln, Interviews und Reden in Hörfunk und Fernsehen reflektierte er die gesellschaftliche und politische Lage der Bundesrepublik in der Nachkriegszeit. Daneben formulierte er ein kriminalpolitisches Programm, in dem er Ziel und Zweck des Strafrechts grundlegend infrage stellte. Bauer hat in diesen Schriften oft Positionen bezogen, die für seine Zeit ungewöhnlich waren; zugleich zeigen sie, wie eng er dem Denken seiner Zeit verbunden war. Sie gewähren Einsicht in Diskussionen der frühen Bundesrepublik und führen eindrucksvoll vor Augen, wie sich Bauer als Jurist, Remigrant, jüdischer Intellektueller und Sozialdemokrat einmischte und Gehör verschaffte. So eröffnen seine »Kleinen Schriften« aus heute meist unzugänglichen Zeitungen und Zeitschriften, den Blick auf die Brüche in Bauers Biografie, auf Exil und Remigration als Schlüsselerfahrungen. Fritz Bauer (1903–1968) war eine der bedeutendsten Persönlichkeiten im Kampf für die juristische Ahndung der NS-Verbrechen in den 1950er- und 1960er-Jahren in der Bundesrepublik. Von den Nationalsozialisten ins Exil getrieben, kehrte Bauer 1949 nach West-Deutschland zurück und setzte sich als hessischer Generalstaatsanwalt für die Demokratisierung des Landes ein. Er hatte wesentlichen Anteil am Zustandekommen des Eichmann-Prozesses, war maßgeblicher Initiator des Auschwitz-Prozesses in Frankfurt am Main (1963–1965) und strengte ein Verfahren gegen Beteiligte am NS-»Euthanasie«-Programm an. »Ein Humanist und Demokrat […] ein Visionär des Rechtsstaats« Heribert Prantl, Süddeutsche Zeitung https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/deed.de

    Gesellschaftlicher Zusammenhalt (2024)
    Campus Verlag
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Begriff und Vorstellung des »Gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalts« deuten auf einen komplexen Gegenstand, der in all seinen Facetten von einer einzigen Disziplin kaum gefasst werden kann. Um die sozialen Herausforderungen der Gegenwart zu analysieren, ist daher ein interdisziplinäres Zusammenwirken erforderlich. Das im Jahr 2020 neu gegründete »Forschungsinstitut Gesellschaftlicher Zusammenhalt« nimmt diese Aufgabe an. Die Autor_innen dieses Bandes gehen den Leitfragen des Instituts nach Begriff, Entstehungsbedingungen, Gefährdungen und Wirkungen gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalts nach. Die Themen reichen von neuen sozialen Konflikten über das Auseinanderdriften von Stadt und Land bis hin zum Populismus und zunehmenden Antisemitismus. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/

    Nerven, Krieg und militärische Führung (2024)
    Campus Verlag
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-01-24
    Description: Welche Anforderungen stellten Militär, Medizin, Politik und Gesellschaft an die nervliche Belastbarkeit von Offizieren im Krieg in Deutschland zwischen 1890 und 1939? Wie gingen sie mit psychisch erkrankten Offizieren um? Wie nahmen die Betroffenen selbst ihre Erkrankungen wahr? Und welche Auswirkungen hatten diese auf ihr Selbstbild und ihre Lebensläufe? Gundula Gahlen untersucht diese Fragen vom Kaiserreich über die Weimarer Republik bis zur NS-Zeit. Ihre Studie füllt eine Lücke, da sich die bisherige Forschung zu kriegsbedingten psychischen Erkrankungen vor allem mit Mannschaftssoldaten beschäftigte, obwohl das Offizierskorps zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts in Deutschland eine herausgehobene Herrschafts- und Werteelite war und zeitgenössische Leitvorstellungen von Willensstärke und Männlichkeit verkörperte. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Völlerei, Sexualität, das Sezieren von Leichen oder verschwenderisches Zurschaustellen des eigenen Reichtums: Im Exzess wurde - so die These des Buches - gesellschaftliche Ordnung gestaltet. Wie produktiv das Agieren im Übermaß sein konnte, beleuchtet Sarah-Maria Schober an Medizinern, die um 1600 in Basel lebten. Sie folgt den Ärzten an Orte, an denen sie Grenzen austesteten: in Bäder und Haushalte, an ihre Schreibtische und auf die anatomische Bühne. Damit bietet sie zugleich eine quellennahe Analyse einer städtischen Gesellschaft im späten 16. und frühen 17. Jahrhundert. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Der welthistorische Vorgang der Eroberung Amerikas fasziniert heute noch. Wie er organisiert war und welchen Dynamiken er folgte, wurde aber bislang nicht hinreichend erforscht. Vitus Huber nimmt die Verflechtung politischer und ökonomischer Anreiz- und Belohnungsschemata in den Blick und analysiert, wie Beute und ihre Verteilung die diversen Akteure, Institutionen und Praktiken der "Conquista" beeinflussten und welche Rolle hier das Prinzip der Verteilungsgerechtigkeit spielte. So zeigt diese Studie, wie Beute und Verwaltung, Gewaltökonomien und Staatsbildungsprozesse bei der "Conquista" in verblüffender Weise zusammenhingen. Mehr noch: Diese Zusammenhänge formten nicht nur die Eroberung Amerikas, sondern begründeten zudem ein über 300 Jahre währendes Kolonialreich. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/

    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Obwohl sich die natürliche Identität des menschlichen Körpers angesichts der Möglichkeiten technischer oder diskursiver Überformung zunehmend als Illusion erweist, bleibt er doch weiterhin Bezugspunkt und Ausdruck von Identitätsvorstellungen. Dabei kann der eigene Körper mit Gesten schmähend aktiv werden oder kann über vorgegebene Normen, denen er angeblich nicht entspricht, Erniedrigung erleiden. Ausgehend von solchen Überlegungen lotet dieser Band das invektive Potential des menschlichen Körpers aus historischer, gegenwartsbezogener und systematisch-konzeptueller Perspektive aus. Die Beiträge diskutieren Aspekte von Affizierbarkeit, Devianz und Geschlecht sowie Körpermetaphern, den pathologisierten Körper oder den Körper der Mächtigen. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0

    Inventing the Third World (2023)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-03
    Description: This open access book explores the ways in which the global south reimagined the future world order at the end of the Second World War, and the cultural and intellectual breakthroughs that these new narratives created. The end of the Second World War and the eclipse of empires brought a wave of efforts to reimagine the future world order. When nation states emerging from colonial rule met at Bandung to chart alternative destinies and challenge global inequalities, they hoped to create a less hierarchical, more pluralistic and more distributive world. This volume considers the alternative visions put forth by the third world at the close of WWII to recover their world-changing aspirations as well as its cultural and intellectual breakthroughs. Demonstrating how the invention of the third world sought to create new institutions of solidarity, new expressions and alternative narratives to the imperial ones that they had inherited, this book reveals how writers, artists, musicians and photographers created networks to circulate and exchange these ideas. Exploring these ideas put forth from various regions of the global south, the chapters trace their search for new meanings of freedom, self-determination and the promise of development. Out of this moment came efforts in the south to create new histories of global relations, icons and genres, and placed the promises of decolonization and struggles for social and racial justice at the centre of global history. Showing how efforts to remake the world intersected with and altered the trajectories of the global Cold War, Inventing the Third World discusses how this conflict existed outside of the traditional east-west framework and offers an insight into a radically different ‘global cultural cold war’. It shows that the Cold War era was marked by attempts to bring about a different world order that would achieve global racial, social justice and a different kind of peace.

    Sovereignty, Nationalism, and the Quest for Homogeneity in Interwar Europe (2023)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Interwar European minority questions have been predominantly discussed in the context of Eastern Europe until now. This open access book challenges that geographical emphasis by examining both Eastern and Western European experiences. It thus lays the foundation for a new comparative international history of the relations between national majorities and minorities in Europe after the Great War. Building on the assumption that nationalist conflicts are based on dynamic interactions between multiple actors, this book brings together different perspectives and methodological approaches (political, social and transnational) to provide a comprehensive account of minority questions between the two World Wars. With contributions from leading academics and emerging scholars based in Austria, Ireland, Poland, Spain, Switzerland, the UK and the USA among others, Sovereignty, Nationalism, and the Quest for Homogeneity in Interwar Europe is a wide-ranging study which is firmly anchored in the history of the transition from empires to nation-states as well as in the history of human rights and the nation-state. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF).

    Propaganda and Neutrality (2023)
    Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: This is the first broad-ranging, comprehensive and comparative study of the concepts of propaganda and neutrality. Bringing together world-leading and early career historians, this open access book explores case studies from the time of the First World War to the end of the Cold War in countries such as Belgium, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Switzerland, Vichy France, USA, Argentina, Turkey, Portuguese Macau, Brazil, South Africa, Laos, Yugoslavia, Egypt, India, Malta, and Sweden. The individual chapters analyse the methods and channels of propaganda utilised in neutral countries, including rumours, newspapers, cartoons, films, pamphlets and magazines as well as radio broadcasts, official reports, diplomatic movements, cultural campaigns and soft power. They look to understand how these methods and channels have been deployed and how effective they have been in changing or reinforcing opinions and outcomes. Finally the book highlights the interaction between the concepts of propaganda and neutrality. It considers whether neutrality is a form of propaganda in itself, whether it is possible to be truly neutral in any propaganda battle and how the different forms of neutrality, including projected strict neutrality, non-belligerency and non-alignment, have been utilised by neutrals and belligerents to achieve propaganda goals in the last 120 years.

    Economic Development and Environmental History in the Anthropocene (2023)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-05-13
    Description: For the populations of the developing economies – the vast majority of humanity – the present century offers the prospect of emulating Western standards of living. This hope is combined with increasing awareness of the environmental consequences of the very process of global industrialisation itself. This open access book explores the interactions between economic development and the physical environment in four regions of the developing world: Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia and East Asia. The contributors focus on the ‘Anthropocene’: our present era, in which humanity’s influence on the physical environment has begun to mark the geological record. Economic Development and Environmental History in the Anthropocene examines environmental changes at global level and human responses to environmental opportunities and constraints on more local and regional scales, themes which have been insufficiently studied to date. This volume fills this gap in the literature by combining historical, economic and geographical perspectives to consider the implications of the Anthropocene for economic development in Asia and Africa. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by Knowledge Unlatched.

    Global War, Global Catastrophe (2022)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Winner of the World War One Historical Association’s 2021 Norman B. Tomlinson, Jr. Prize Global War, Global Catastrophe presents a history of the First World War as an all-consuming industrial war that forcibly reshaped the international environment and, with it, impacted the futures of all the world’s people. Narrated chronologically, and available open access, the authors identify key themes and moments that radicalized the war’s conduct and globalized its impact, affecting neutral and belligerent societies alike. These include Germany’s invasion of Belgium and Britain’s declaration of war in 1914, the expansion of economic warfare in 1915, anti-imperial resistance, the Russian revolutions of 1917 and the United States’ entry into the war. Each chapter explains how individuals, communities, nation-states and empires experienced, considered and behaved in relationship to the conflict as it evolved into a total global war. Above all, the book argues that only by integrating the history of neutral and subject communities can we fully understand what made the First World War such a globally transformative event. This book offers an accessible and readable overview of the major trajectories of the global history of the conflict. It offers an innovative history of the First World War and an important alternative to existing belligerent-centric studies. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 3.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

    Visual Histories of Occupation (2022)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: This book is open access and available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. It is funded by the European Research Council. Asking what does foreign occupation look like and how does occupation shape visual expression and cultures, this edited collection explores how the occupied and occupiers have responded to their circumstances through visual culture. Contributors study specific cases of foreign occupation from around the world and across the 20th century, discussing the similarities, links and points of contact which bring disparate examples of occupation into dialogue with one another. The intention is to illustrate how an emphasis on ‘the visual’ can help inform our understanding of occupation more broadly. Comprised of 12 core chapters and structured around 4 methodological and conceptual themes, this book adopts a consciously transcultural approach through which contributors examine the influence of specific cases, memories and legacies of occupation. Spanning Europe, Asia, the Middle East and elsewhere, the chapters also engage in a wider dialogue to reveal commonalities and points of comparison across political and temporal boundaries.

    Scarcity in the Modern World (2022)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Scarcity in the Modern World brings together world-renowned scholars to examine how concerns about the scarcity of environmental resources such as water, food, energy and materials have developed, and subsequently been managed, from the 18th to the 21st century. These multi-disciplinary contributions situate contemporary concerns about scarcity within their longer history, and address recent forecasts and debates surrounding the future scarcity of fossil fuels, renewable energy and water up to 2075. This book offers a fresh way of tackling the current challenge of meeting global needs in an increasingly resource-stressed environment. By bringing together scholars from a variety of academic disciplines, this volume provides an innovative multi-disciplinary perspective that corrects previous scholarship which has discussed scientific and cultural issues separately. In doing so, it recognizes that this challenge is complex and cannot be addressed by a single discipline, but requires a concerted effort to think about its political and social, as well as technical and economic dimensions. This volume is essential for all students and scholars of environmental and economic history.

    Propaganda and Conflict (2022)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Propaganda has always played a key role in shaping attitudes during periods of conflict and the academic study of propaganda, commencing in earnest in 1915, has never really left us. We continue to want to understand propaganda’s inner-workings and, in doing so, to control and confine its influence. We remain anxious about pernicious information warfare campaigns, especially those that seemingly endanger liberal democracy or freedom of thought. What are the challenges, then, of studying propaganda studies in the twenty-first century? Much scholarship remains locked into the study of state-led campaigns, however an area of special concern in recent years has been the loss of official control over the basic instruments of mass communication. This has been seen in the rise of ‘fake news’ and the ability of non-state actors to influence political events. This volume presents the latest research in propaganda studies, featuring contributions from a range of leading scholars and covering the most cutting-edge scholarship in the study of propaganda from World War I to the present.

    New Perspectives on the History of Gender and Empire (2022)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: New Perspectives on the History of Gender and Empire extends our understanding of the gendered workings of empires, colonialism and imperialism, taking up recent impulses from gender history, new imperial history and global history. The authors apply new theoretical and methodological approaches to historical case studies around the globe in order to redefine the complex relationship between gender and empire. The chapters deal not only with ‘typical’ colonial empires like the British Empire, but also with those less well-studied, such as the German, Russian, Italian and U.S. empires. They focus on various imperial formations, from colonies in Africa or Asia to settler colonial settings like Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, to imperial peripheries like the Dodecanese or the Black Sea Steppe. The book deals with key themes such as intimacy, sexuality and female education, as well as exploring new aspects like the complex marriage regimes some empires developed or the so-called ‘servant debates’. It also presents several ways in which imperial formations were structured by gender and other categories like race, class, caste, sexuality, religion, and citizenship. Offering new reflections on the intimate and personal aspects of gender in imperial activities and relationships, this is an important volume for students and scholars of gender studies and imperial and colonial history.

    Urban Redevelopment and Modernity in Liverpool and Manchester, 1918-1939 (2022)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This book is open access and available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. It is funded by Manchester University. Faced with economic decline, unprecedented levels of unemployment and new forms of political extremism during Britain’s last great economic crash, politicians and planners in Liverpool and Manchester responded by investing in dramatic and ambitious programmes of urban regeneration. Urban Redevelopment and Modernity in Liverpool and Manchester, 1918-1939 is the first book to provide the hitherto unknown story of the innovative transformation of these cities. Charlotte Wildman challenges academic scholarship in British history, which associates the post-1918 period with the emasculation of local government and the decline of civic culture. She shows that local politicians, planners, architects, businessmen and even religious leaders embraced innovative trends in creating distinct forms of urban modernities, which particularly changed the way women experienced the transformed city. Urban Redevelopment and Modernity in Liverpool and Manchester, 1918-1939 offers a complex, interactive and multipolar interpretation of the ways cities develop, pointing to new methods and ways of understanding both interwar Britain and urban history more generally. At a time of debate and discussion about devolution and decentralisation of government, this book makes an opportune contribution to debates about urban governance and regionalism in contemporary Britain.

    A Global History of Convicts and Penal Colonies (2022)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. It is funded by the University of Leicester. Between 1415, when the Portuguese first used convicts for colonization purposes in the North African enclave of Ceuta, to the 1960s and the dissolution of Stalin’s gulags, global powers including the Spanish, Dutch, Portuguese, British, Russians, Chinese and Japanese transported millions of convicts to forts, penal settlements and penal colonies all over the world. A Global History of Convicts and Penal Colonies builds on specific regional archives and literatures to write the first global history of penal transportation. The essays explore the idea of penal transportation as an engine of global change, in which political repression and forced labour combined to produce long-term impacts on economy, society and identity. They investigate the varied and interconnected routes convicts took to penal sites across the world, and the relationship of these convict flows to other forms of punishment, unfree labour, military service and indigenous incarceration. They also explore the lived worlds of convicts, including work, culture, religion and intimacy, and convict experience and agency.

    Sonic Histories of Occupation (2022)
    Bloomsbury Academic | Bloomsbury Academic
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: This open access book examines how auditory environments in different contexts have contributed to understanding foreign occupation and colonialism, and how they have given rise to historical music cultures. How are sound and music implicated in the control and discipline of people under occupation? Exploring case studies of foreign occupation and colonialism from around the world, Sonic Histories of Occupation seeks to answer these questions and more. Examining how an emphasis on auditory culture adds complexity and nuance to understanding the relationship between occupation and the bodily senses, this book is structured around three conceptual themes: voice and occupation; memory, sound and occupation; and auditory responses to occupation and colonialism. Highlighting case studies in Asia, North Africa, North America and Europe, contributors employ a range of theoretical approaches to examine histories of imperialism and foreign occupation, and the auditory legacies they created, and contribute to a wider dialogue about the relationship between sound and imperial projects across political and temporal boundaries. The open access edition of this book is available under a CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 license on www.bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the European Research Council (Horizon 2020, Grant Number 682081).
