Nouvelles des archives. Documenter le militantisme visant les entreprises
Les Archives Sociales Suisses à Zurich ont été fondées en 1906 sous le nom de Zentralstelle für soziale Literatur der Schweiz et portent leur nom actuel depuis 1942. Depuis ses débuts, l’institution est soutenue par une association non partisane. Paul Pflüger, un pasteur réformateur social de la banlieue ouvrière zurichoise d’Aussersihl, futur membre du gouvernement de la ville de Zurich et conseiller national, en fut l’instigateur principal.

The Beginnings of the International Ice Hockey Federation
The foundation of the International Ice Hockey Federation in 1908 was rather complex, as the very essence of the game had to be defined. On the one hand, it had to be decided (not least organisationally) whether ice hockey was to be a discipline of its own or just a sub-discipline of ice sports together with speedskating and figure skating. On the other hand, and more importantly, several different sets of rules were in place and there even exist…

Protest und Streiks in der Schweiz in der zweiten Hälfte des Ersten Weltkriegs
Switzerland was spared direct involvement into the First World War, nevertheless the global conflict had tremendous political and economic impact on the neutral republic. Major antagonisms emerged between the different linguistic groups sympathising with opposing belligerent coalitions as well as between different social strata. Food and fuel shortages and wartime inflation as well as a lack of integration of the labour movement into the politica…

Le football suisse
Switzerland is by no means a great football nation. Yet the country has played a crucial role in football’s transfer from the British Isles to Continental Europe. It has hosted several big internat
Goal!
Armut, Arbeit, Abenteuer – Sozialprofil und Motivationsstruktur von Schweizer Söldnern in der Moderne
Swiss mercenaries had been extremely famous in premodern Europe, yet in the mid-19 th century, the young Swiss Confederation illegalised foreign military service. Nevertheless, a large number of Swiss men would serve in foreign mercenary armies during the 19 th and 20 th centuries. This article concentrates on this group’s social structure and their motivations. The overwhelming majority originated from the lowest strata of society. They had week…
Goal
Goal! covers the history of the beautiful game from its origins in English public schools in the early 19th century to its current role as a crucial element of a globalized entertainment industry. The authors explain how football transformed from a sport at elite boarding schools in England to become a pastime popular with the working classes, enabling factories such as the Thames Iron Works and the Woolwich Arsenal to give birth to the teams tha…
Recruitment Policies and Recruitment Experiences in the French Foreign Legion
Perceptions of the French Foreign Legion have always been ambivalent. The Legion’s image as an alleged reservoir of criminals and runaways from all over Europe has been countered by notions of romantic legionnaires such as fostered in P. C. Wren’s novel Beau Geste (1924) or in Edith Piaf’s song ‘Mon Légionnaire’ (1936). Although an anachronism in the age of national armies largely based on compulsory military service, the French Foreign Legion ha…

Sport, Urbanity and Communal Socialism
This article analyses opportunities, limitations and impact of communal sport policies in the second quarter of the 20th century by the example of Zurich, the largest city of Switzerland. The period of ‘Red Zurich’ from 1928 to 1949, when a Social Democratic majority committed to the strategy of ‘communal socialism’ dominated the city's executive council, was at the same time the take-off period of both mass and commercialised elite sport. Yet, u…

Representing Otherness
A German mistook his trench and, together with his coffee, was made prisoner by a Senegalese sentry.When he was encircled by African tirailleurs, the whole of his body was trembling.You poor man, didn't you anticipate this moment when you already gloated over your future glory?The blacks you thought to be savages have caught you in the war, but instead of killing you, they have made you a prisoner of war.Your fear will hopefully not prevent you f…
Football negotiating the placement of Switzerland within Europe
Although hosting the ‘Union Européenne de Football Association’ (UEFA) and having co‐organized the 2008 European Championship, Switzerland is deliberately still a non‐member of the European Union. This evokes the question about football's role in the negotiation of Switzerland's placement within Europe. Football and ‘Swissness’ have been linked at several times in modern Swiss history, even though the record of the Swiss national football team is…
Es ist zum Heulen”
Whilst labour history has always been aware of the emotional dimensions of strike activities, the latter have hardly been given systematic consideration. This article seeks to assess the potential of impulses from the »emotional turn« for a cultural renewal of strike history. After some remarks on empirical problems of operationalising theoretical models, it examines the role of emotions at different stages of strikes, types and functions of spon…
Local Strikes as Transnational Events
The second half of the 'long nineteenth century' witnessed a dramatic increase of strikes all over Europe, which was not confined within national boundaries. Historical strike research has mainly analyzed strike-related transnationalism by doing comparative studies and examining international strike waves. This article offers a second approach towards a transnational history of striking: the analysis of strike-related transnational entanglements.…
Streiken im austrofaschistischen „Ständestaat“ 1934–1938
The history of the Austrian “Ständestaat”, whose character is still debated, is closely linked to the phenomenon of strike. Although the analysis of strike activities has the potential to contribute to the discussion about this political system’s functioning, scholars did not pay much attention to the topic yet. This article gives an overview on the institutional pattern of industrial relations in Austro-Fascism, tries to reconstruct the tendenci…
