Imperialist Socialism of the Chair
S ean A ndrew W empe . Revenants of the German Empire
With the loss of its overseas colonies through the Treaty of Versailles in 1919, the Weimar Republic became the first “postcolonial” European state. As Sean Andrew Wempe demonstrates in his lucidly written debut book, this did not end German colonial politics or the country’s colonial entanglements. Rather, “colonial Germans”—a somewhat amorphous group of former colonial officials, repatriated settlers, and procolonial business groups—worked to k…

Alfred C. Mierzejewski. A History of the German Public Pension System
The German public pension system created under Otto von Bismarck in 1889 was the first of its kind in the world. It also managed to survive the upheavals of two world wars, revolution, military occupation, and no fewer than five different forms of government in the twentieth century. In A History of the German Public Pension System: Continuity and Change, Alfred Mierzejewski seeks to account for the resiliency of this remarkable institution while…

Over the last several years there has been growing interest in how this data was collected and interpreted as a core feature of modern s…

German Social Science, Meiji Conservatism, and the Peculiarities of Japanese History
An influential strand of Japanese historiography is invested in notions of peculiarity that highlight the deviance of Meiji Japan from Western liberal-democratic patterns. This special path is associated with the rising influence of the German Historical School of Economics. By analyzing the content of that influence and by maintaining a comparative perspective with the United States, Britain, and Germany, it is possible to highlight the worldwid…
The Rise of Historical Economics and Social Reform in Germany 1864-1894
Social science and social reform flourished in Imperial Germany, and the historical economist Gustav Schmoller made fundamental contributions to both. Despite this, historians have neglected him. Questioning the term ‘German Historical School’ associated with Schmoller, this book reveals the European context of Schmoller's thought and the influence of empiricism, statistics, and advances in the natural sciences on his choice of methods. By explor…
