The Vaccination Cold War
Surveying the early responses to the Covid‐19 pandemic among nation states, one finds a veritable babel of responses, some predictable and some not. Would these results have been different half a century or more ago, when smallpox was eradicated and hopes were high that international cooperation would yield similar results for other infectious diseases? Is this a story about the stability provided by the bipolar postwar world, juxtaposed with the…
Propaganda and Conflict: War, Media and Shaping the Twentieth Century
Propaganda has always played a key role in shaping attitudes during periods of conflict and the academic study of propaganda, commencing in earnest in 1915, has never really left us. We continue to want to understand propaganda’s inner-workings and, in doing so, to control and confine its influence. We remain anxious about pernicious information warfare campaigns, especially those that seemingly endanger liberal democracy or freedom of thought. W…

The Scars of Ravensbrück: Medical Experiments and British War Crimes Policy, 1945–1950
Although the fiftieth anniversary of the Nazi Doctors' Trial in 1946 and 1947 sparked significant debate about medical research ethics and the origins of the Nuremberg Code, historians have so far paid little, if any, attention to Allied war crimes policy on the investigation of German medical atrocities, of which the Ravensbrück trials formed part. British war crimes policy, in particular, was concerned with medical war crimes committed by Germa…
The Red Cross and the Holocaust (review)
A decade after its first publication, Cambridge University Press has produced an English edition of Jean-Claude Favez's book about the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). This work looks at the committee's action and inaction on behalf of the victims of the Holocaust. Why has it taken so long for the translation to appear? Rising translation costs in a fiercely competitive market increasingly appear to stall accessibility to importan…
