Elections and Anti-Refugee Violence in Germany from 2014-2020
Electoral violence can influence and even delegitimize electoral contests. Yet, much of the research on electoral violence excludes established democracies. As a result, we know relatively little about the relationship between elections and political violence in these states. This paper explores the relationship between anti-refugee violence, a type of political violence, and elections in Germany during the refugee influx of the 2010s. Despite th…

Hermann Levin Goldschmidt and the Futurology of an Uncertain Future
This article discusses Hermann Levin Goldschmidt’s philosophical work , first published in 1976 as within the context of the field of futurology. Whereas his historical work seeks to restore a legacy that the Holocaust destroyed, his philosophical argument against the futurologists reclaims the future from the realms of forecasting and planning. Goldschmidt gains this unique philosophical position on the future from the perspective of German Jewi…

Deutsche und jüdische Ruinen der Erinnerung in Worms und Hamburg
In addition to being witnesses of a vanished past, ruins refer to the former building and tell the story of its destruction. Two ruins, which can also be described as memorial sites, can exemplify different strategies of dealing with these material remnants: the destroyed synagogue of Worms and the St Nikolai Church in Hamburg. The destroyed synagogue of Worms was rebuilt as a symbol of the history of the Jewish community prior to 1933 and as a m…
German Jews in Paris
The article traces Central European Jewish visitors of Paris during the Weimar Republic and the 1930s and analyzes the shifting meaning of travel, exile, and the figure of the flaneur. Their travelogues articulated their affection for Paris in the aftermath of World War I and the Treaty of Versailles, marking them as border crossers in multiple ways. Writing about modern capitals such as Paris became a way to temporarily belong to them, to reimag…
Secularization Theories and Their Discontents
The apparent return of religion (which, despite claims to the contrary, never retired from the public sphere) and the new interest in political theology have given secularization theories new relev
Akademischer Alltag zwischen Ausgrenzung und Erfolg
Aleksandra Pawliczek’s meticulously researched book on Jewish professors at the University of Berlin confronts the paradoxical prevalence of exclusion and the disproportionate representation of Jews at the university. Her book chronicles the legal position of Jewish professors, academic disciplines, and the debates surrounding the appointment or rejection of Jews. As early as 1911 Bernhard Breslauer documented existing patterns of inequality. His…

German City, Jewish Memory
Longing, Belonging, and the Making of Jewish Consumer Culture
Jewish history has been extensively studied from social, political, religious, and intellectual perspectives, but the history of Jewish consumption and leisure has largely been ignored. The hitherto neglect of scholarship on Jewish consumer culture arises from the tendency within Jewish studies to chronicle the production of high culture and entrepreneurship. Yet consumerism played a central role in Jewish life. This volume is the first of its ki…

German Jewish Reading Cultures, 1815–1933
This article traces the development of German Jewish reading cultures from the Napoleonic wars to the demise of the Weimar Republic. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, Jewish reading clubs promoted works of Bildung , but by the second half of the nineteenth century, they provided access to books about Jewish religion, history, literature, and philosophy as well. Whereas the institutions of the Jewish public initially emerged outside of e…
Jewish Traveling Cultures and the Competing Visions of Modernity
During the nineteenth century, Jews in the German lands received, in exchange for their religious, cultural, and political transformation, civic liberties. Viewing the national as the realm of cultural interaction, production, and contestation has underlined the tortuous and conflicted process of German Jews' integration. Yet, at the dawn of modernity, Jewish communities in Germany grew out of temporal and spatial networks that the emerging natio…
London and the East End as Spectacles of Urban Tourism
The article analyzes London's East End as a spectacle of urban tourism. It traces the changing perception of urban explorers and international travel writers from the end of the nineteenth century into the interwar period. Exploring the East End became a cultural practice in the metropolitan city that brought cultures into contact and negotiated their boundaries, generating an engagement with and a rethinking of difference and modernity. At times…
