A. Dirk Moses. The Problems of Genocide: Permanent Security and the Language of Transgression
The Post-war Refugee Problem and Its Repercussions for 2015
Philipp Ther. The Outsiders: Refugees in Europe since 1492
Philipp Ther decided to write his impressive new history of refugees on the European continent while witnessing from Vienna the beginnings of the so-called “migrant crisis” in 2015. While the media immediately drew parallels between the influx of Syrian refugees into the European Union and the displaced persons and expellees of the immediate post–World War II era, Ther’s ambition was to frame the crisis in a longer historical perspective. His swe…

“In the kind of world in which we fight,” wrote the American undersecretary of state Sumner Welles in 1943, “there must cease to exist any need for the use of the accursed term ‘racial or religious minority.’” Like other American strategists, Welles yearned for the disappearance of minorities in international politics (Frank 250–251). Carried out between 1942 and 1945, the Roosevelt administration’s secretive M-Project (M standing here for “Migra…
Lucian N. Leustean. The Ecumenical Movement and the Making of the European Community
The emergence of the European Community (EC) in the aftermath of the Second World War is commonly described as a secular phenomenon. The various blueprints for European federalism issued before and during the war barely mentioned religion, and churches remained for the most part silent on the prospect of European unity. Faced with the daunting challenge of economic reconstruction, French, German, and “Benelux” leaders initiated the process of Eur…
Elusive Neutrality: Christian Humanitarianism and the Question of Palestine, 1948–1967
This article examines the history of Protestant humanitarian interventions on behalf of Palestinian refugees between 1948 and 1967. Deeply concerned with Arab suffering, Protestant churches organized under the World Council of Churches were also theologically committed to a new “Christian approach to the Jews” in the aftermath of the Holocaust. Commitment to neutrality, however, could not keep politics at bay. Indeed, the hallmark of Protestant h…

Between Relief and Politics: Refugee Humanitarianism in Occupied Germany 1945—1946
In this article, I argue that international relief operations carried out between 1943 and 1947 under the umbrella of UNRRA went beyond their stated goal of civilian 'rehabilitation': relief efforts also contributed to the rise of a new internationalism in the aftermath of the second world war. I start my discussion with a comparison between relief operations in Europe after the first and second world wars. In contrast to 1918, humanitarian effor…
