Recent historical studies on the origins of the postsocialist order in eastern and central Europe have adopted a "long transformation" perspective. They emphasize the importance of state socialist economic and political experts who, as early as the 1970s, began to think in ways that would prove compatible with neoliberal governance after 1989/91. Sharing this interest in longer genealogies of the postsocialist transformation, the present article …
Global Yoga in Eastern Europe
English abstract: This paper investigates the transmission and institutionalization of modern yoga in socialist Czechoslovakia and Poland between the 1960s and 1980s, analyzing the roles played by “cultural brokers” (B. Hauser) Milada Bartoňová and Tadeusz Pasek. The analysis pursues a dual purpose: firstly, to enrich research on connections between socialist Europe and the Global South, shedding light on hitherto overlooked transmissions of idea…
Psychologien der Menschenführung
Psychology, psychiatry, and psychotherapy have influenced modern societies far beyond the clinical sphere. Their effect has been particularly evident in practices of (self)leadership and governance in domains such as labour, politics, and education since the 1960s.

Conversely, how can the history of emotions benefit from contemporary historical work on these specific world regions? Opening a special section that sheds light on these questions, this introduction outlines the research field of emotion history and discusses pertinent studies on central and eastern Europe since 1945. To prevent emotion…

Previous historical studies of agricultural science in the period have not overlooked the increasing demands for applicability that agricultural scientists were faced with at …
Ist Stress westlich
When does stress – understood as a bodily and psychological condition connected to rapid social change and the pressure to perform – become a social concern? Previous historical research has situated the topic exclusively in the West: stress as a characteristic condition of what is understood to beWestern capitalism. Using the examples of the state socialist GDR and Czechoslovakia in the 1960s –1980s, this contribution demonstrates how stress bec…
