    Abstract: How has fashion mirrored the social and cultural changes that have taken place in modern China? To what extent has fashion contributed to those changes? This book provides the first comprehensive account of modern Chinese fashion from 1978 to the present day. The post-Mao era witnessed the birth of the Chinese market economy, the reawakening of Chinese fashion, and the rejuvenation of Chinese society. The program of economic reform turned China into the world's leading manufacturing powerhouse, and the Chinese fashion industry now plays a key international role. During the same period, Western companies discovered China as a significant market for branded fashion and luxury goods. This book, which takes a chronological approach, offers an analysis of the development of the Chinese fashion industry as well as an analysis of the relationship between dress, gender, identity and consumption in contemporary China. As such it will be welcomed by all students of fashion and textiles

    Abstract: In his examination of interwar Mexico, early Cold War Cuba, and Puerto Rico during the Alliance for Progress, Merrill demonstrates how tourists and the international travel industry facilitated the expansion of U.S. consumer and cultural power in Latin America. He also shows the many ways in which local service workers, labor unions, business interests, and host governments vied to manage the Yankee invasion. Highlighting the everyday realities of U.S. empire in ways often overlooked, Merrill's analysis provides historical context for understanding the contemporary debate over the costs and be

    Abstract: Until recently, women featured in the historiography of the landed class in Ireland either as bearers of assets to advantageous matches or as potential drains on family estates. Drawing on a range of sources from the papers of landed families, this book provides fresh insights into the place of these women. Looking at women?s experiences of property and power in twenty landed families between 1750 and 1850, and outlining the statutory developments that impacted upon the distribution of family property in Ireland, Wilson considers how women were provided for and examines the legal, social and fa

    Abstract: Having only emerged in the past few decades, Feminist Philosophy is rapidly developing its own thrust in areas of particular importance to feminism-and women more generally-while also reevaluating and reshaping most other fields of philosophy, from ethics to logic and Marxism to environmentalism. It draws not only on feminist philosophers but criticizes, approves, or appropriates the work of the leading philosophers of all times

    Politieke geschriften : Opstand en Religievrede (2009)

    Abstract: In Root of the Dutch Wars and Other Political Writings, Coornhert provides his views on the political situation at that time in a profound manner. The political situation is according to Coornhert not only hopeless, but the liberation struggle appears to be meaningless when new acts of injustice are not punished. This book is a dialogue in which Coornhert further launches his criticisms and convictions. His work is a plea for tolerance, written with great sense of urgency at a crucial moment of our national history. The Bibliotheca Dissidentium Neerlandicorum publishes works on the non-coformist history of the Netherlands (religious, philosophical and artistic) of approximately 1350 until the present day. These works of various non-conformist authors are published by Amsterdam University Press, under the Coornhert Stichting imprint
    Abstract: In Politieke geschriften geeft publicist Dirck Volckertzoon Coornhert (1522-1590) op indringende wijze zijn visie op de politieke situatie in zijn tijd. De Opstand verkeert in een diepe crisis, de tegenstander is overmachtig en de opstandelingen zijn onderling verdeeld. Met pragmatische en politiekprincipiële argumenten verdedigt Coornhert in zijn brieven en traktaten de vrijheid van religie. En altijd klinkt daarin zijn diepste overtuiging door: geloof en dwang gaan niet samen. Dit is Coornhert op zijn scherpst: ontgoocheling en fel verzet. Dirk Volkertzoon Coornhert (1522-1590) was een vooraanstaand medestander van Willem van Oranje. Gedreven en veelzijdig publicist als hij was, heeft hij zich ingezet voor een zeer ruim opgevatte vrijheid van godsdienst. Zijn werk is een pleidooi voor verdraagzaamheid, geschreven met veel gevoel voor urgentie op een cruciaal moment van onze vaderlandse geschiedenis. In de Bibliotheca Dissidentium Neerlandicorum verschijnen publicaties op het gebied van de geschiedenis van het Nederlandse (religieuze, filosofische en artistieke) non-conformisme van circa 1350 tot onze tijd. De DBN omvat een reeks tekstedities en een reeks studies over belangrijke non-conformistische auteurs. De publicaties van de DBN verschijnen bij Amsterdam University Press als uitgaven van de Coornhert Stichting, onder redactionele verantwoordelijkheid van het Coornhert Centrum

    Two Centuries of Solidarity : German, Belgian and Dutch social health insurance 1770-2008 (2009)
    [Erscheinungsort nicht ermittelbar] : Aksant Academic Publishers
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (400 p.)
    Keywords: History
    Abstract: Today, health insurance is a key component in the system of social security in most European Union countries. In many of these countries, modern health-insurance funds and healthcare insurers play an essential role in implementing the public health-insurance system. Many of these health-insurance funds have a long and fascinating history, of which clear traces can be seen today in the organisation and structure of health insurance, as well as health-insurance funds and insurers. In Two centuries of solidarity, the authors compare the systems of health insurance, health-insurance funds and healthcare insurers in Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. Given the similar political, economic and social development that these countries have undergone in the past 60 years and the availability of a qualitatively high level of health care, one might expect a high degree of similarity between these countries' healthcare insurance systems. However, the dissimilarities are surprising. In fact, these differences are currently becoming ever more apparent between systems in general, and the structure and operation of the health insurance funds and health care insurers in particular. The differences include the compulsory nature of insurance, the extent of coverage, premiums, entrepreneurship, competition, and the degree of private insurance. Many of these national singularities can be understood and explained only by considering the historical background of the health insurance systems, the insurers, and their evolution over the past two centuries. This study adopts an institutional and political perspective towards a further understanding of the development of health insurance, and of how this ultimately determined the specific nature of the healthcare insurers and funds and the way they currently operate in Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands

    Abstract: "This collection of essays examines the politicization and the politics of the Jewish people in the Russian empire during the late tsarist period. The focal point is the Russian revolution of 1905, when the political mobilization of the Jewish youth took on massive proportions, producing a cohort of radicalized activists - committed to socialism, nationalism, or both - who would exert an extraordinary influence on Jewish history in the twentieth century in Eastern Europe, the United States, and Palestine."--Jacket

    Abstract: In 1847, during the great age of the freak show, the British periodical Punch bemoaned the public's "prevailing taste for deformity." This vividly detailed work argues that far from being purely exploitative, displays of anomalous bodies served a deeper social purpose as they generated popular and scientific debates over the meanings attached to bodily difference. Nadja Durbach examines freaks both well-known and obscure including the Elephant Man; "Lalloo, the Double-Bodied Hindoo Boy," a set of conjoined twins advertised as half male, half female; Krao, a seven-year-old hairy Laotian girl who was marketed as Darwin's "missing link"; the "Last of the Mysterious Aztecs" and African "Cannibal Kings," who were often merely Irishmen in blackface. Upending our tendency to read late twentieth-century conceptions of disability onto the bodies of freak show performers, Durbach shows that these spectacles helped to articulate the cultural meanings invested in otherness--and thus clarified what it meant to be British--at a key moment in the making of modern and imperial ideologies and identities.

    Abstract: The first German women's movement embraced the belief in a demographic surplus of unwed women, known as the Frauenberschuß, as a central leitmotif in the campaign for reform. Proponents of the female surplus held that the advances of industry and urbanization had upset traditional marriage patterns and left too many bourgeois women without a husband. This book explores the ways in which the realms of literature, sexology, demography, socialism, and female activism addressed the perceived plight of unwed women.

    Abstract: This collection of essays documents the ways in which educational institutions and the arts community responded to the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina. While firmly rooted in concrete projects, Civic Engagement in the Wake of Katrina also addresses the larger issues raised by committed public scholarship. How can higher education institutions engage with their surrounding communities? What are the pros and cons of "asset-based" and "outreach" models of civic engagement? Is it appropriate for the private sector to play a direct role in promoting civic engagement? How does public scholarship impact traditional standards of academic evaluation? Throughout the volume, this diverse collection of essays paints a remarkably consistent and persuasive account of arts-based initiatives' ability to foster social and civic renewal

    Abstract: The Cape Flats, a windswept, barren and sandy area which rings Cape Town, is home to more than a million people. Many live here in sprawling shack settlements. The post-apartheid state is attempting to eradicate such settlements by providing formal houses in planned residential estates. Raw Life, New Hope is a longitudinal study of the residents of one such shack settlement, The Park, who moved to new, 'formal' houses in The Village, at the turn of the millennium. It introduces readers to core social science topics and modes of theorising. Over 17 years the author has traced how ordinary people attempt to live in accord with their ideals of decency under almost impossible circumstances, and the effects of material changes in their lives after 1994, including the provision of housing. Photos, maps, anecdotes, recipes and philosophical reflections on subjects that arose during conversations elicit a sense of the everyday and of how people try to solve the problems of poverty

    Abstract: Antisemitism is an exceptional historical phenomenon. Its history goes back at least 2000 years and has manifested itself in many countries and in a wide range of societies. However, it is not a universal phenomenon. Many countries have no tradition of anti-Semitism and even in those where anti-Semitism periodically raises its head, there have been long periods where it appears to have lain dormant. But it has never altogether disappeared, and all the large-scale social changes of the past two millennia have given it extra impetus. This definitive study tackles the complex roots and manifestations of anti-Semitism over the centuries, tracing the rise of anti-Jewish stereotypes and the circumstances in which racial prejudice may have tragic concequences. This book will quickly become a classic text for students and researchers in this persistent and worldwide prejudice
    Abstract: Antisemitisme is een uitzonderlijk historisch fenomeen. Het kent een geschiedenis van tenminste 2000 jaar en manifesteerde zich in een groot aantal landen en in zeer verschillende samenlevingen. Toch is het geen universeel verschijnsel. Veel landen kennen geen antisemitische traditie en daar waar het antisemitisme wel de kop opstak, zijn er ook lange periodes waarin het alleen onderhuids aanwezig lijkt te zijn. Verdwenen is het nooit en alle grote maatschappelijk veranderingen van de afgelopen 2000 jaar hebben het antisemitisme eerder versterkt dan verzwakt. In The Drawing of the Mark of Cain behandelt Dik van Arkel deze gecompliceerde problematiek. Hij gaat in op de ontwikkeling van het anti-joodse stereotype en onderzoekt de omstandigheden waaronder anti-joodse vooroordelen kunnen leiden tot vervolgingen

    Abstract: Creëer een substantieel extra budget Geesteswetenschappen waarop faculteiten een beroep kunnen doen op basis van een overtuigend toekomstplan. Stel een regieorgaan in dat de voorstellen toetst. Versterk de kansen op tweede geldstroomonderzoek voor geesteswetenschappers. En ontwikkel een adequate kwaliteitsbeoordeling voor hun prestaties. Dat zijn de belangrijkste aanbevelingen uit het rapport van de commissie Nationaal Plan Toekomst Geesteswetenschappen onder voorzitterschap van Job Cohen. Hij heeft het eindrapport vanmorgen overhandigd aan minister Ronald Plasterk, die een jaar geleden de opdracht gaf voor het opstellen van dit advies. Op het eerste gezicht lijken de geesteswetenschappen er in Nederland goed voor te staan. Het aantal studenten groeit, het onderzoek is hoogwaardig en er is sprake van een groeiende maatschappelijke belangstelling voor de producten van het geesteswetenschappelijk onderzoek. Deze ogenschijnlijke bloei kan niet verhullen dat zich ernstige problemen voordoen die de toekomst van de geesteswetenschappen bedreigen. Zo kon afgelopen jaren ondanks de stijging van het aantal studenten niet of nauwelijks in extra personeel worden geïnvesteerd. Een sterke verslechtering van de stafstudentratio en toenemende druk op onderzoekstijd zijn het gevolg. Ook voor het opleiden van de toekomstige generatie wetenschappers ontbreekt het aan financiële ruimte. Gevolg is dat de pool van kandidaten om de huidige generatie wetenschappelijke staf op te volgen steeds kleiner wordt, wat op termijn de kwaliteit van het hele wetenschapsgebied bedreigt. De commissie stelt voor om een deskundig en gezaghebbend regieorgaan in te stel-len. Dat beheert een speciaal budget waarop de geesteswetenschappelijke faculteiten een beroep kunnen doen met een overtuigend toekomstplan. Dat plan moet de verschillende deelproblemen (zoals versnippering van het onderwijsaanbod, geringe maatschappelijke uitstraling, lage onderwijsrendementen, betere doorstroming van jong talent in vaste wetenschappelijke rangen etc.) stevig aanpakken.

    Ship's Surgeons of the Dutch East India Company : Commerce and the Progress of Medicine in the Eighteenth Century (2009)

    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (388 p.)
    Keywords: History ; Medicine
    Abstract: The ship's surgeons in the employ of the Dutch East India Company were responsible for the healthcare on board the ships and in the hospitals founded by the Company in a vast geographical area expanding from South Africa to Japan. They were not highly regarded by their contemporaries, who criticised them for being little more than barbers or loblolly boys. The author of this fascinating study paints the true picture of the profession, drawing on her analysis of data for some 3,000 ship's surgeons in the Company's service, and including the recruitment policy of the Company, the career of the surgeons, their geographical origins, their life expectancy, to mention but a few. The results of her analysis, based on many hitherto unpublished sources, show this negative image to be a myth. The surgeons were, as a rule, fairly well educated according to the standards of their time. The tragic fact that they were confronted with diseases unknown in Europe and incurable at the time contributed to the sailors' and the society's dismissive attitude to their skills
    Abstract: Scheepschirurgijns van de Verenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie waren verantwoordelijk voor de gezondheidszorg op de schepen en vestigingen van de VOC in Zuid-Afrika en Azië. Zij staan te boek als analfabeten en kwakzalvers of zelfs veredelde barbiers. Iris Bruijn bewijst met haar diepgaande onderzoek dat het negatieve beeld een mythe is en laat tegelijkertijd de tragiek van deze chirurgijns zien. Ze laat 3000 chirurgijns de revue passeren en belicht hun opleiding, hun geografische herkomst, de carrière van de chirurgijns, hun levensverwachting en het rekruteringsbeleid van de VOC. Hoewel de scheepschirurgijns goed opgeleid en bekwaam waren, kregen zij te maken met onbekende exotische ziekten die, zo weten wij nu, niet te genezen waren

    Abstract: Van Santa Claus (Sinterklaas) en zijn slee (sleigh) tot aan de dollar (vernoemd naar de daalder) en Yankees (Jan Kees), de Nederlandse taal is van grote invloed geweest op het Amerikaans-Engels. Yankees, cookies en dollars laat zien hoe de Nederlandse erfenis tot ver buiten New York reikt en zelfs terug te vinden is in de indianentalen. Dit jaar wordt herdacht dat vierhonderd jaar geleden, in 1609, Henry Hudson met zijn VOC-schip voor anker ging bij Manhattan. In zijn kielzog landden Nederlandse kolonisten op het eiland die de stad Nieuw-Amsterdam stichtten. In de loop van vierhonderd jaar is het gebied getransformeerd van landbouwgrond naar de huidige wereldstad New York. Hoewel er veel is veranderd, is de invloed van de Nederlandse taal nog steeds hoorbaar. Wat is de ontwikkeling geweest van het Nederlands in de Verenigde Staten? Hoelang is dit gesproken en is het ongewijzigd gebleven? Hoe groot was en is de invloed van het Nederlands op het Amerikaans-Engels? Welke Nederlandse woorden zijn door indianentalen overgenomen? In dit boek gaat taalkundige Nicoline van der Sijs in op deze en andere vragen. Ze geeft up-to-date informatie over de veranderende betekenis, de etymologie en de regionale spreiding van de Nederlandse leenwoorden. Yankees, cookies en dollars verschijnt ook in het Engels als "http://www.aup.nl/do.php?a=show_visitor_book&isbn=9789089641243"〉Cookies, Coleslaw and Stoops. In het kader van Holland on the Hudson (400 jaar handelsrelaties tussen Nederland en New York) wordt het boek op 10 september gepresenteerd op Columbia University te New York.

    Abstract: ""I just begin to find out that whaling will never do for me and have determined to leave the ship here if possible."" That sentiment, expressed by a foremast hand aboard the ship Caroline in 1843, is one shared by many of the whalemen in this fascinating book. Interest in Herman Melville's Moby Dick has contributed to a substantial literature on the history and lore of the industry. But not until now has the vast body of surviving whaleship logs and journals been used to paint an encompassing picture of the difficult but colorful life aboard nineteenth-century American whaling vessels.

    Abstract: "During recent years, attempts have been made to move beyond the Eurocentric perspective that characterized the social sciences, especially anthropology, for over 150 years. A debate on the 'anthropology of anthropology' was needed, one that would consider other forms of knowledge, modalities of writing, and political and intellectual practices. This volume undertakes that challenge: it is the result of discussions held at the first organized encounter between Iranian, American, and European anthropologists since the Iranian Revolution of 1979. It is considered an important first step in overcoming the dichotomy between 'peripheral anthropologies' versus 'central anthropologies.' The contributors examine, from a critical perspective, the historical, cultural, and political field in which anthropological research emerged in Iran at the beginning of the twentieth century and in which it continues to develop today."--

    Abstract: In 1609 King Philip III ordered the expulsion of all Moriscos-Spaniards of Muslim descent-from Spain in an ongoing attempt to establish a homogeneous state and remove the last vestiges of Islam from his nation. Four centuries later, Spain and Europe are once again outraged by the presence of Islam within their borders, and, for many, the millions of Muslim immigrants now living there pose a fundamental challenge to European identity. Across the Atlantic Ocean, the vast Hispanic community in the United States, both legal and illegal, has raised similar fears. Exacerbated by globalization and 9

    Description / Table of Contents: They baked New England's Thanksgiving pies, preached their faith to crowds of worshippers, spied for the patriots during the Revolution, wrote that human bondage was a sin, and demanded reparations for slavery. Black women in colonial and revolutionary New England sought not only legal emancipation from slavery but defined freedom more broadly to include spiritual, familial, and economic dimensions. Hidden behind the banner of achieving freedom was the assumption that freedom meant affirming black manhood The struggle for freedom in New England was different for men than for women. Black men i

    Abstract: "This volume, the result of ongoing collaborations between Australian and French anthropologists, historians and linguists, explores encounters between Pacific peoples and foreigners during the longue duree of European exploration, colonisation and settlement from the sixteenth century to the twentieth century. It deploys the concept of 'encounter' rather than the more common idea of 'first contact' for several reasons. Encounters with Europeans occurred in the context of extensive prior encounters and exchanges between Pacific peoples, manifest in the distribution of languages and objects and in patterns of human settlement and movement. The concept of encounter highlights the mutuality in such meetings of bodies and minds, whereby preconceptions from both sides were brought into confrontation, dialogue, mutual influence and ultimately mutual transformation. It stresses not so much prior visions of 'strangers' or 'others' but the contingencies in events of encounter and how senses other than vision were crucial in shaping reciprocal appraisals. But a stress on mutual meanings and interdependent agencies in such cross-cultural encounters should not occlude the tumultuous misunderstandings, political contests and extreme violence which also characterised Indigenous-European interactions over this period."--Publisher's website.

    Abstract: Dieses Buch deutet die Rituale und Praktiken der Freimaurerbruderschaft als Cultural Performance. Anhand von reichhaltigem historischen Material kann gezeigt werden, dass die freimaurerischen Praktiken in der Perspektive der kultur- und sozialwissenschaftlichen Konzepte der 〉〉Performativität〈〈 und des 〉〉Habitus〈〈 genuin soziale Formen der inkorporierenden Einübung einer bürgerlichen Habitusethik sind. Die Analyse dieser rituellen Form der sozialen und körperorientierten Habitusprägung in der entstehenden Commercial Society macht das historische Phänomen als Teil der Kultur- und Gesellschaftsgeschichte sichtbar - und geht damit über die bekannten pauschalen Verweise auf die geistesgeschichtliche Nähe zu Ideen der Aufklärung hinaus.

    Not Invited to the Party : How the Demopublicans Have Rigged the System and Left Independents Out in the Cold (2009)

    Keywords: History ; Political science ; Social sciences ; USA ; Partei ; Politisches System
    Abstract: Not Invited to the Party demonstrates how the dominant political parties--the Democrats and Republicans--have co-opted the system to their advantage. James Bennett examines the history and array of laws, regulations, subsidies and programs that benefit the two major parties and discourage even the possibility of a serious challenge to the Democrat-Republican duopoly. The American Founders, as it has been generally forgotten, distrusted political parties. Nowhere in the U.S. Constitution are parties mentioned, much less given legal protection or privilege. This provocative book traces how by the end of the Civil War the Republicans and Democrats had guaranteed their dominance and subsequently influenced a range of policies developed to protect the duopoly. For example, Bennett examines how the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 (as amended in 1974 and 1976), which was sold to the public as a nonpartisan act of good government reformism actually reinforced the dominance of the two parties. While focused primarily on the American experience, the book also considers the prevalence of two-party systems around the world (especially in emerging democracies) and the widespread contempt with which they are often viewed. Featuring incisive commentary on the 2008 election, and a foreword by third-party iconoclast, Ralph Nader, the book considers the potential of truly radical reform toward opening the field to vigorous, lively, contentious independent candidacies that might finally offer alienated voters a choice, not an echo.

    The Founders of Western Thought - The Presocratics : A diachronic parallelism between Presocratic Thought and Philosophy and the Natural Sciences (2009)

    Keywords: History ; Philosophy (General) ; Science (General) ; Science History ; Science Philosophy
    Abstract: There are two main contributions in this book: Firstly, to make the founding and evolution of the Western thought accessible to the reflective man of our day, since the spirit of the Presocratics – although it is considered to constitute a true intellectual revolution – remains unknown to the broader community and secondly to shed greater light – probably for the first time – on the scientific dimension of the Presocratics’ work, and show its timeless value. This book is a balanced interdisciplinary philosophic-scientific presentation of the evolution of Western thought through the presocratic tradition, where the synthesis of rationality and intuition – rather than their opposition – is the key to answering all questions of science, as we now understand the them. It is a book that investigates the roots of Western science and philosophy, where probably for the first time a coherent interrelation is shown between Presocratics’ thought and classical, as well as modern physical sciences.

    Abstract: Celebrated as the home of the blues and the birthplace of rock and roll, Memphis, Tennessee, is where Elvis Presley, B.B. King, Johnny Cash, and other musical legends got their starts. It is also a place of conflict and tragedy - the site of Martin Luther King Jr.'s 1968 assassination - and a city typically marginalised by scholars and underestimated by its own residents. Using this iconic southern city as a case study, this book explores the significance of place in a globalising age

    Abstract: Annotation
    Abstract: Long considered as "outsiders" or "strangers" in their own country, The Travellers depicted in this book were essential agents in their own depiction; they were the drivers for these cultural representations of their own community. Paul Harrison's photos are beautiful because they are arresting. They show us a "hidden Ireland", one that is often relegated To The societal margins. They haunt the viewer. They interrogate the notion of what it means to be human.The late-twentieth century has witnessed a particular prominence assigned To The discourses of "difference" and "Otherness", discourses which subvert hegemonically-defined representations and demystify what was once simple domination and reification. Representations of cultural minorities, whether literary or visual, play a profound role in how groups such as Irish Travellers are defined and treated by the non-Traveller community. Essentialist notions of migrants and other traditionally-nomadic peoples have a long and complex history. The history of Irish Traveller is no different. For hundreds of years they have en-numerated the projective function of the "Othering" process, a form of rejection and marginalisation that was the institutionalization of ideas and images

Building on the rich historiography of gender and culture in the South undertaken in recent years, this volume aims to highlight the important role Southern conceptions of masculi

    Abstract: In the seventeenth century, the Dutch established a trading base at the Indonesian site of Jacarta. What began as a minor colonial outpost under the name Batavia would become, over the next three centuries, the flourishing economic and political nucleus of the Dutch Asian Empire. In this pioneering study, Jean Gelman Taylor offers a comprehensive analysis of Batavia's extraordinary social world--its marriage patterns, religious and social organizations, economic interests, and sexual roles.

    Abstract: In France's Third Republic, secularism was, for its adherents, a new faith, a civic religion founded on a rabid belief in progress and the Enlightenment conviction that men (and women) could remake their world. And yet with all of its pragmatic smoothing over of the supernatural edges of Catholicism, the Third Republic engendered its own fantastical ways of seeing by embracing observation, corporeal dynamism, and imaginative introspection. How these republican ideals and the new national education system of the 1870s and 80s-the structure meant to impart these ideals-shaped belle époque popula

    Abstract: Carefully documenting African American slave foods, this book reveals that slaves actively developed their own foodways-their customs involving family and food. The authors connect African foods and food preparation to the development during slavery of Southern cuisines having African influences, including Cajun, Creole, and what later became known as soul food, drawing on the recollections of ex-slaves recorded by Works Progress Administration interviewers. Valuable for its fascinating look into the very core of slave life, this book makes a unique contribution to our knowledge of slave cultu

    Abstract: The Bold and the Brave investigates how women have striven throughout history to gain access to education and careers in science and engineering. Author Monique Frize, herself an engineer for over 40 years, introduces the reader to key concepts and debates that contextualize the obstacles women have faced and continue to face in the fields of science and engineering.

    Abstract: The author introduces the reader to key concepts and debates that contextualize the obstacles women have faced and continue to face in the fields of science and engineering. She focuses on the history of women's education in mathematics and science through the ages, from antiquity to the Enlightenment. While opportunities for women were often purposely limited, she reveals how many women found ways to explore science outside of formal education. The book examines the lives and work of three women - Sophie Germain, Mileva Einstein, and Rosalind Franklin - that provide excellent examples of how women's contributions to science have been dismissed, ignored or stolen outright. She concludes with an in-depth look at women's participation in science and engineering throughout the twentieth century

    Abstract: "We hold these truths to be self evident ..." An Interdisciplinary Analysis of the Roots of Racism and Slavery in America delves into the philosophical, historical, socio/cultural and political evolution of racism and slavery in America. The premise ofthis work is that racism and slavery in America are the result of an unintentional historical intertwining of various Western philosophical, religious, cultural, social, economic, and political strands of thought that date back to the Classical Era. These strands have become tangled in a Gordian knot, which can only be unraveled through the bold app

    Abstract: In the early years of the Republic, as Americans tried to determine what it meant to be an American, they also wondered what it meant to be an American child. A defensive, even fearful, approach to childhood gave way to a more optimistic campaign to integrate young Americans into the Republican experiment. In this work, historians unearth the experiences of and attitudes about children and youth during the decades following the American Revolution. Beginning with the revolution itself, the contributors explore a broad range of topics, from the ways in which American children and youth participated in and learned from the revolt and its aftermaths, to developing notions of ideal childhoods as they were imagined by new religious denominations and competing ethnic groups, to the struggle by educators over how the society that came out of the Revolution could best be served by its educational systems. The volume concludes by foreshadowing future child saving efforts by reformers committed to constructing adequate systems of public health and child welfare institutions. Rooted in the historical literature and primary sources, this book is a resource in our understanding of origins of modern ideas about children and youth and the conflation of national purpose and ideas related to child development

    Abstract: In the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen of 1789, French revolutionaries proclaimed the freedom of speech, religion, and opinion. Censorship was abolished, and much like the early American Republic, France appeared to be on a path towards freedom, tolerance, and pluralism. Four years later, however, the country slid into a period of political terror. Thousands were indicted for speech crimes, many of whom were guillotined. The revolutionary government also set out to morally regenerate society, monitoring and engineering public opinion in ways scholars have characterized as t

    Abstract: Quand, en 1894, le peintre Rémy Cooghe brosse son portrait, Jules Émile Scrive est âgé de 57 ans. Il exprime une bonhomie certaine que n'altère en rien le port altier de l'honnête homme sûr de son fait. On peine cependant à imaginer là une âme inquiète où le sentiment d'une honorabilité légitime s'accommode mal des tracas du quotidien et des interrogations sur le sens de l'existence. C'est pourtant ce que disent ses carnets, rédigés d'une écriture fine et serrée sur des pages pré-datées, finement quadrillées. Treize années durant, entre 1879 et 1891, cet industriel malgré lui, héritier d'une prestigieuse dynastie de l'histoire du textile lillois, y consigne tout ce qui, à ses yeux, mérite d'être retenu, depuis les petits riens de la vie, les couleurs et les saveurs de l'ordinaire jusqu'aux considérations sur le sens du temps qui passe, les mystères de la foi ou bien encore les soucis d'un fabricant de toiles aux prises avec une conjoncture morose. En nous faisant part des infinies facettes de son existence, ce notable se déplie ainsi sans risque, à l'abri du monde, pour produire une trace qui devient récit de vie. Si l'expérience transmise ici par l'un des « Maîtres du Nord » est par essence unique, ce n'est cependant pas au point d'interdire l'accès à l'universel par le singulier. Tout lecteur fera donc son miel d'un journal personnel qui, en relevant du for privé, constitue un observatoire privilégié quand il s'agit de restituer des manières d'être, de vivre et de penser d'un représentant de la bourgeoisie industrielle des dernières décennies du xixe siècle

    Abstract: "La cosa più incomprensibile del mondo è il fatto che sia comprensibile", ebbe a dire un giorno Albert Einstein. A ben pensarci, non è stupefacente che l'Universo abbia un'intima essenza razionale e matematica, tale da abilitare la mente umana a indagarlo e a conoscerlo? Questo libro tratta dell'evoluzione storica del concetto di razionalità, dal mondo greco classico fino ai nostri giorni, passando attraverso i contributi, spesso sottovalutati o mal compresi, dei Padri della Chiesa e dei teologi medievali. Se non si tengono nel giusto conto i risultati del costruttivo e serrato confronto tra s

    Abstract: À l’origine et au cœur de ce livre se trouve une question : comment écrire une histoire comparée des femmes ? Quatre grandes historiennes américaines, Ann Taylor Allen, Bonnie S. Anderson, Karen Offen et Susan Pedersen ont accepté de relever le défi. Concentrant leurs regards sur l’Europe et les États-Unis, du xviiie à la fin du xxe siècle, les auteures se proposent d’offrir de nouvelles perspectives sur cette histoire, d’analyser sous différents angles les promesses d’une telle entreprise et d’en souligner les écueils. Visant à mieux faire connaître en France les recherches en histoire comparée des femmes, ce livre, initialement paru aux États-Unis en 2006, révèle l’importance de ce champ d’étude pour l’histoire comparative. Sur le plan méthodologique, il donne une plus ample connaissance des différentes historiographies et montre combien le dialogue peut se révéler fécond et stimuler d’autres formes d’écritures

    Abstract: Ouverture à la concurrence, développement des énergies renouvelables, volatilité des prix du pétrole, réchauffement climatique... Avec la généralisation de la prise de conscience des défis à relever, les questions énergétiques passionnent. Ces défis ne sont pas uniquement économiques mais sont aussi de vrais sujets de société. C'est sur les spécificités « du modèle énergétique français » et du rôle de l'État que se sont penchés, régulièrement durant trois ans, historiens, économistes et acteurs lors d'un séminaire organisé par le Comité pour l'histoire économique et financière de la France. En effet, s'il est bien un domaine industriel dans lequel l'État a été, depuis le début du XIXe siècle, tout à la fois législateur, opérateur, régulateur et financier, c'est celui de l'énergie. Véritable secteur moteur des différentes phases d'industrialisation, l'énergie (charbon, gaz, électricité, pétrole) s'est révélée stratégique tout en étant le champ privilégié de l'émergence de la notion de service public. Quels sont les différents rôles de l'État dans ce domaine ? Comment se sont élaborés, dans la longue durée, ces rapports complexes entre l'État et les opérateurs ? Quelle est la généalogie du modèle de la grande entreprise publique qui mettait son monopole au service de la nation ? Pourquoi l'énergie est-elle un secteur privilégié de l'action publique ? La trentaine de textes et de témoignages rassemblés dans ces actes retrace, analyse et permet de mieux comprendre les principaux mécanismes de cette histoire

Le livre propose de penser cette double histoire è la lumière d'un double questionnement: Y a-t-il eu construction d'un espace audiovisuel européen? Et. si oui, ce dernier a-t-il contribué à construire une Europe culturelle et à forger une identité européenne nouvelle? Comme le montrent Marie-Françoise Lévy et Maric-Noëlle Sicard dans leur introduction, les questions posées ne donnent pas lieu à des réponses univoques. D'autant que les auteurs de ce volume engagent des réflexions sur la notion même do culture et sur celle d'identité. Toutes les contributions ici rassemblées apportent des éclairages nouveaux sur ces concepts, sur la façon dont ils sont appréhendés, ainsi que sur la dimension culturelle et identitaire de la télévision en Europe depuis un demi-siècle. Ce livre analyse les modèles de télévision et leurs transformations, la relance de l'Europe de la culture, les difficultés et les obstacles rencontrés par les acteurs qui tentent de conjuguer télévision, culture et Europe. Il étudie également les programmes télévisuels, ces récits et ces images qui montrent l'Europe, en dessinent les signes de reconnaissance et offrent au téléspectateur un élargissement de son horizon national vers d'autres paysages, modes de vie, patrimoines et traditions culturelles. A travers cette démarche novatrice, les télévisions apparaissent ainsi comme des acteurs de l'histoire de l'Europe

    Abstract: Par quelles opérations un édifice ou un objet se trouve-t-il intégré au corpus du patrimoine ? Quelles sont les étapes de la "chaîne patrimoniale", depuis le premier regard jusqu'à l'éventuelle obtention du statut juridique de "monument historique" ? Quels sont les critères mis en oeuvre par les chercheurs de l'Inventaire pour décider que tel château, telle ferme, tel tableau d'église possède ou non une valeur patrimoniale ? Quels émotions animent les mobilisations des profanes en faveur des biens à préserver ? Et finalement, sur quelles valeurs fondamentales repose la notion même de patrimoine ? Telles sont les questions auxquelles répond de livre, à partir d'enquêtes au plus près du terrain. Car c'est dans le détail des procédures, des propos enregistrés, des scènes et des gestes observés que l'on peut réellement comprendre comment - c'est-à-dire pourquoi - les limites du patrimoine n'ont cessé, en une génération, de s'étendre, englobant désormais non seulement la "cathédrale" mais aussi la "petite cuillère" - selon les mots d'André Chastel définissant le service de l'Inventaire -, voire, tout récemment, la borne Michelin. Appliquant à la question patrimoniale les méthodes de la sociologie pragmatique, cette étude s'inscrit dans la perspective d'une sociologie des valeurs, tentant d'élucider ce qu'on entend aujourd'hui dans notre société par l'ancienneté, l'authenticité, la singularité ou la beauté - et ce qu'on en attend

    Series Statement: Histoire économique et financière - XIXe-XXe
    Keywords: History
    Abstract: Depuis la fin du XIXe siècle, de nouvelles branches industrielles et de nouveaux produits sont apparus dans les pays développés, ce qui a obligé les entreprises à modifier leur offre et à adapter leur système financier. Quelles sources de financement ont permis ces créations d'entreprises, cette diversification, ce développement et cette internationalisation ? À côté de l'autofinancement, les firmes ont-elles pu trouver des institutions capables de répondre à ces nouveaux défis, dans les périodes de croissance comme dans les périodes de difficultés ? Les pays industrialisés ont-ils répondu de manière convergente ou non à ces mutations économiques ? Ce colloque, qui a réuni des historiens et des économistes de renommée internationale, apporte de nouvelles réponses dans une perspective comparatiste. Trois secteurs sont particulièrement étudiés ici : l'automobile, le textile et les chemins de fer. Les différentes tailles d'entreprises, de la jeune entreprise à la multinationale en passant par la PME, sont prises en compte. Le rôle des marchés financiers, source de financement pour les entreprises, fait l'objet d'études inédites, tandis que l'autofinancement est réévaluéà l'aune de nouvelles méthodes. L'importance des banques est également revisitée par des approches originales. Cet ouvrage permet de mieux mesurer le poids des chocs conjoncturels dans les changements financiers intervenus tout au long du XXe siècle et constitue une référence indispensable à tous ceux qui s'intéressent au financement des entreprises

    Keywords: History
    Abstract: Sous le titre Le Jeu d'échecs comme représentation : univers clos ou reflet du monde ?, une publication en ligne dans la collection « Actes de la recherche à l'ENS » vient saluer le travail accompli par une équipe de jeunes chercheurs sous la direction d'Amandine Mussou (2002) et Sarah Troche. Capables d'absorber le joueur au point de l'abstraire du monde dans lequel il évolue, les échecs reposent d'une part sur le spectacle captivant de figurines en mouvement, d'autre part sur une structure géométrique renvoyant à un nombre infini de combinaisons. Entre incarnation et abstraction, les échecs fascinent : la richesse de leurs représentations dans la littérature et les arts en est le témoin. La dimension spéculaire des échecs est souvent admise comme une évidence. Bien plus qu'un pur divertissement de la pensée, les échecs sont là pour désigner autre chose, un ailleurs, un au-delà qui reflèterait, fidèlement ou en le déformant, le monde réel. Cette puissance allégorique des échecs a été perçue dès leur implantation en Occident. Le Moyen Âge exploite en effet les possibilités du jeu en proposant plusieurs types d'interprétations symboliques, que l'on trouve notamment décrites au début du Livre des eschez amoureux moralisés, dans les premières années du XVe siècle : les pièces de l'échiquier peuvent reproduire la société civile, être à l'image de la stratégie militaire, représenter les combinaisons infinies du ciel et des planètes, ou servir d'allégorie aux batailles amoureuses. La lecture allégorique du jeu a perduré, il suffit de se rappeler la partie que le Chevalier Block joue contre la Mort dans Le Septième Sceau d'Ingmar Bergman pour s'en convaincre. L'origine des échecs remonte au début de notre ère, en Inde, où le jeu s'appelait Tchaturanga, « le jeu des quatre rois ». Il passe ensuite en Perse et se transforme au cours de ses pérégrinations, s'adaptant aux nouvelles sociétés dans lesquelles il s'implante. Les échecs n'ont plus grand-chose à voir avec le jeu indien lorsqu'ils arrivent en Occident autour du Xe siècle. Les changements les plus notables concernent la nomenclature des pièces : le vizir, firz en arabo-persan, est devenu la fierge dans l'Occident médiéval, soit la reine. L'éléphant avait une forme conique qui évoquait la mitre épiscopale chez les Anglais, qui en firent leur bishop [évêque]. Les défenses de l'éléphant rappelaient davantage aux Français le bonnet à pointe du fou. Comme pour la reine, une figure de cour est ainsi venue remplacer une figure militaire. Malgré ces différentes adaptations, le but du jeu est resté le même : il s'agit de mettre à mort le roi adverse. Si la partie d'échecs médiévale est à l'image du combat féodal, le XVIe siècle, période où l'art de la guerre est bouleversé par la généralisation de l'usage des armes à feu, voit les règles des échecs se modifier profondément ; c'est notamment à partir de ce moment-là que la reine et le fou acquièrent la possibilité de traverser tout l'échiquier. L'histoire des échecs semble ainsi refléter l'histoire de la guerre et, plus généralement, les composantes sociales du monde dans lequel on joue. C'est le caractère spéculaire de ce jeu qui est étudié dans ce volume. Les échecs façonnent-ils un monde à l'image du réel ou fonctionnent-ils comme un univers autonome ? La configuration des pièces comme la portée symbolique du jeu sont clairement influencées par le contexte social et politique de chaque époque. Cependant, bien des représentations tendent à faire de l'univers échiquéen un monde en soi. Le lieu commun du joueur d'échecs fou qui projette les règles du jeu sur la réalité qui l'entoure est là pour le montrer. Loujine - personnage dont le nom rime avec illusion en anglais, rappelle Nabokov dans sa préface - engage par exemple une partie dont l'échiquier est le monde réel. Quand il se jette par la fenêtre, il voit l'abîme « divisé en carrés clairs et en carrés sombres » : le monde ludique enferme ici le joueur dans une logique parallèle. Du jeu comme idéal, comme forme d'utopie politique ou artistique, au jeu comme univers autonome, qui modèle un récit ou une toile loin de toute volonté mimétique, ce volume, issu d'une journée d'étude organisée à l'École en 2007, se propose d'examiner les rapports qu'entretiennent les échecs avec le monde. L'approche s'est voulue interdisciplinaire et transhistorique

    Abstract: The late Chinese scholar Ji Xianlin has influenced the image of Germany for generations of Chinese relevant until today. About his time in Göttingen from 1935 1945 he wrote in the 80's a book in which he draws, in spite of negative experiences during the Nazi dictatorship, a differentiated picture of Germany and the Gottingen science. This led to a sharp increase in the number of Chinese students in Göttingen up to 400 in 2008
    Abstract: Der kürzlich verstorbene chinesische Gelehrte Ji Xianlin hat das Deutschlandbild von Generationen von Chinesen bis heute maßgeblich beeinflusst. Über seine Zeit in Göttingen von 1935 – 1945 schrieb er in den 80er Jahren ein Buch, in dem er, trotz negativer Erfahrungen während der nationalsozialistischen Diktatur, ein differenziertes Bild von Deutschland und der Göttinger Wissenschaft zeichnet. Dies führte zu einem starken Anstieg der Zahl der Studierenden aus China in Göttingen, die im Jahr 2008 bei 400 lag. In seinen Erinnerungen, die im Oktober zur Frankfurter Buchmesse erstmals in deutscher Übersetzung erschienen sind, bezeichnet Prof. Dr. Ji Göttingen und seine Universität als zweite Heimat

    Abstract: Since the arrival of the Spanish conquerors at the beginning of the colonial period, Cuba has been hugely influenced by international migration. Between 1791 and 1810, for instance, many French people migrated to Cuba in the wake of the purchase of Louisiana by the United States and turmoil in Saint-Domingue. Between 1847 and 1874, Cuba was the main recipient of Chinese indentured laborers in Latin America. During the nineteenth century as a whole, more Spanish people migrated to Cuba than anywhere else in the Americas, and hundreds of thousands of slaves were taken to the island. The first decades of the twentieth century saw large numbers of immigrants and temporary workers from various societies arrive in Cuba. And since the revolution of 1959, a continuous outflow of Cubans toward many countries has taken place—with lasting consequences.In this book, the most comprehensive study of international migration in Cuba ever undertaken, Margarita Cervantes-Rodríguez aims to elucidate the forces that have shaped international migration and the involvement of the migrants in transnational social fields since the beginning of the colonial period. Drawing on Fernand Braudel’s concept of longue durée, transnational studies, perspectives on power, and other theoretical frameworks, the author places her analysis in a much wider historical and theoretical perspective than has previously been applied to the study of international migration in Cuba, making this a work of substantial interest to social scientists as well as historians.
