The Fight for the Past
Many in the West do not understand why Putin decided to attack Ukraine. Russian propagandists have thrown up a smokescreen, placing the blame on the expansion of NATO into Eastern Europe, slandering the Ukrainian government as a ‘Nazi’ regime, suggesting that ethnic Russians needed protection, or even insinuating a conspiracy by the West to destroy the Russian state and Russian culture. This article shows that there are deep underlying reasons fo…
Legality, ethnicity and violence in Austrian Galicia, 1890–1920
Using the example of the Austrian crownland ‘Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria’, the essay addresses the question to what extent the imperial framework was capable of containing ethnic conflicts. In the last decades before the war, Austria-Hungary developed a culture of compromise and legality which provided a space for the development of national movements. The second and third part of the essay deal with the consequences of the war for ethnic re…
Konstruktionen bürgerlicher Identität
German academic publications tend to be longer than their British counterparts. The two books reviewed here are no exception. They have been published as part of the historical series of the Landschaftsverband Westfalen-Lippe in Münster, a regional organisation promoting the region of Westphalia-Lippe in north-west Germany. Both books are comparative studies, and both are contributions to the field of urban history. Jochen Guckes’ book is his pub…
The Cambridge History of the First World War
This first volume of The Cambridge History of the First World War provides a comprehensive account of the war's military history. An international team of leading historians charts how a war made possible by globalization and imperial expansion unfolded into catastrophe, growing year by year in scale and destructive power far beyond that which anyone had anticipated in 1914. Adopting a global perspective, the volume analyses the spatial impact of…
Cultures of Commemoration
Historians of the First World War have long noted that forms of remembrance and the symbolic language of war memorials were inspired by ancient models, but it was not clear whether these forms carried the same meaning two millennia ago as they do today. This question has now been partly answered by this volume, edited by Polly Low, Graham Oliver and P.J. Rhodes. The eight essays cover almost 2,500 years of history. The authors analyse the ways in…
Incompatible Experiences
Jewish, Polish and Ukrainian memories of the war contradict each other. In Polish and Ukrainian collective memory the glorification of the heroic struggle of national resistance fighters against the oppressors makes it difficult to engage with the question of Polish and Ukrainian collaboration and participation in Nazi crimes. The essay traces these conflicting memories back to contradicting experiences. This is done using the example of the mult…
