The Hidden History of Crime, Corruption, and States
Renowned historical sociologist Charles Tilly wrote many years ago that “banditry, piracy, gangland rivalry, policing, and war-making all belong on the same continuum.” This volume pursues the idea by revealing how lawbreakers and lawmakers have related to one another on the shadowy terrains of power over wide stretches of time and space. Illicit activities and forces have been more important in state building and state maintenance than conventio…
The Hidden History of Crime, Corruption, and States
All history is contemporary history, famously proclaimed Benedetto Croce, meaning that we understand the past through the eyes of the present. As the media flood us with breathtaking news of state-related crimes, some express fears for the future of civilization altogether. However, in this issue a group of scholars offers evidence of Charles Tilly's fertile insight that illegal practices always played an important part in the creation and mainte…
Die Frauenlobby vom Land
In this exhaustively researched collective biography of twenty-one leading women of the German countrywomen's association, which survived the Reich, the Weimar Republic, the Nazi state and the postwar Federal Republic, Anke Sawahn offers a prosopography that reveals an active, energetic network of women touched by the emancipatory feminist movement of their time while deeply enmeshed in existing class and gender relations that both helped and hur…
Seascapes
Historians have only recently begun to chart the experiences of maritime regions in rich detail and penetrate the historical processes at work there. Seascapes makes a major contribution to these efforts by bringing together original scholarship on historical issues arising from maritime regions around the world.The essays presented here take a variety of approaches. One group examines the material, cultural, and intellectual constructs that info…
Interactions
The essays presented here reflect recent widespread interest in reconsidering the political, geographical, and cultural boundaries conventionally observed by area specialists and others. They intentionally range widely through time and space, dealing with diverse issues and contexts, but each highlights the very general theme of cross-cultural interaction. Although they draw heavily on area studies, the contributors seek to put previously separat…

Marxistischfeministische Ansätze zur Frauengeschichte in den USA
When biology became destiny
This collection of essays analyzes the experience of women in Weimar and Nazi Germany -- the first a period of crisis and polarization between right and left, and the second a period in which the right triumphed. The history documented in this book provides us with a perspective from which to analyze our own time, for in the history of Weimar and Nazi Germany we see the issues surrounding women, family, and reproduction as powerful mobilizing for…

It is a commonplace that the National Socialist assumption of power in Germany in 1933 was to a large extent made possible by a clever manipulation of irrational fears provoked by the economic, social, and political tensions of the time. More than once since the Frankfurt School's famous study on authority and the family it has been suggested that the authoritarianism of the German family contributed to the susceptibility of the population to the…
Was There a Roman Homer? Niebuhr's Thesis and Its Critics
In 1811-1812 a remarkable book by the Danish-born bureaucrat Barthold Georg Niebuhr made a modern attempt to recreate the first five centuries of Roman history. Titled simply Rdnmische Geschichte, it contained a daring blend of source criticism and reconstructive narrative. Among the several imaginative hypotheses in it, perhaps the most startling claimed that Roman historiography had its Homer, an indigenous poetic oral tradition, some of whose …
