Eliten im Vielvölkerreich
In Russia and Austria-Hungary of the late nineteenth century, one may speak of the “imperial biographies” of elites. Their lives, careers, and self-perceptions were inextricably connected with empire. This volume looks into the influence of these mobile elites on the fundamental changes that took place in both empires during the long nineteenth century. Seventeen case studies reveal striking patterns in their mobility and career trajectories. The…
Imperiale Herrschaft im Weichselland

Sovietizing culture was a work in progress, and various institutions, agencies, and experts actively participated in defining an adequate "Soviet style." Focusing on this interplay of agencies and taking mass …
Die Feste der Macht und die Macht der Feste Fest und Diktatur – zur Einleitung
Festivals of the Power and the Power of Festivals Festivals and Dictatorship – Introduction In their own time dictatorships and festivals were often seen as intricately intertwined. Many observers later followed this line of interpretation. According to historians, the mass festivals in Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany, Stalinist Russia, and the Eastern European «people's democracies» encapsulate the mobilizing character of 20th century dictatorships.…
