Scholarship on Plains Indian ledger art has traditionally focused on the content of drawings rather than the practices and interactions of warrior-artists, especially during the period of the Indian wars, from the mid-1860s to the mid-1870s. However, attention to the physical structure of ledgers used by Plains Indians, in particular, missing pages and transfer patterns, may lead to a new understanding of ledger art dynamics. Unlike reservation-e…
Being Skeptical? Exploring Far-Right Climate-Change Communication in Germany
This article explores climate-change communication by the German far right – spanning a continuum which ranges from anti-liberal democracy radical-right populists, to the extreme right and to anti-democratic neo-Nazis – and asks: how do these actors articulate the phenomenon of climate change? In responding to this question, we conduct a discourse network analysis which identifies relations between actors, objects, phenomena, and processes, and p…
Bo Stråth. Europe’s Utopias of Peace

Stråth sees the s…

A Reply to Josef Becker's Response
The issues raised in Professor Becker's paper bear directly on the claims that the Franco-Prussian War can make for its place as the most critical war of the mid-nineteenth century. These points must be debated, if not resolved, if this subject is to continue to exercise its hold on international historians—as well as, one may add, on non-historians, interested in the past, concerned to know whether the past can help the present, and bewildered b…
