Interactions

According to estimates, there are over 100,000 video testimonies with victims of National Socialism. Many of the interview archives are easily accessed, including some that are available in the Internet for free. While teachers are hesitant in making use of this treasure of source materials, learners are familiar with the figure of the eye-witness as communicated via film and television. But what can be taught with the help of what in cinematographic terms is often criticised as "talking heads"? What constitutes a good learning setting? And how do users interact with the - usually digitised - video testimonies and the collections that are often available online? In January 2017 experienced e...

Connected Histories

The World Wide Web (WWW) and digitisation have become important sites and tools for the history of the Holocaust and its commemoration. Today, some memory institutions use the Internet at a high professional level as a venue for self-presentation and as a forum for the discussion of Holocaust-related topics for potentially international, transcultural and interdisciplinary user groups. At the same time, it is not always the established institutions that utilise the technical possibilities and potential of the Internet to the maximum. Creative and sometimes controversial new forms of storytelling of the Holocaust or more traditional ways of remembering the genocide presented in a new way with...

Domesticity on Display

This book examines postsocialist transformations reflected in urban middle-class domestic spaces and in museums dedicated to socialism in Romania. It focuses on the significance and circulation of porcelain and crystal sets and ornaments during late socialism and after 1989, following the experiences of consumers, workers in the glassware and porcelain industry, and artists. By tracing the values and temporalities embedded in materiality, the book sheds light on how objects shape daily life in a time of cultural, economic, and social change. Drawing on ethnographic research, the book offers an in-depth analysis of the ambiguous relation between the middle-class and the socialist state, using...

Growth determinants in East and Southeast Asian economies

Already in the 1960s the four little dragons Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan started their industrialization moving steadily upwards with increasing growth rates, some of them double-digit in the 1980s. Most significant for these results has been their export-oriented growth strategy capitalizing on low labour costs and opening them up to the world market with all its benefits and pressures. Until today they have attracted quite a lot of foreign investors bringing technology and skills beside the pure capital. Thus, all four countries have reached a more sophisticated level of production and partly even developed into service and financial centres.Combining these developments wi...

Digital History and Hermeneutics

As a result of rapid advancements in computer science during recent decades, there has been an increased use of digital tools, methodologies and sources in the field of digital humanities. While opening up new opportunities for scholarship, many digital methods and tools now used for humanities research have nevertheless been developed by computer or data sciences and thus require a critical understanding of their mode of operation and functionality. The novel field of digital hermeneutics is meant to provide such a critical and reflexive frame for digital humanities research by acquiring digital literacy and skills. A new knowledge for the assessment of digital data, research infrastructure...

Phantastische Gesellschaft

Immer wieder werden in der Öffentlichkeit Fälschungen, Betrugsfälle und imaginierte Geschichten diskutiert, die im Zusammenhang mit der Shoah und dem Zweiten Weltkrieg wie auch der Erinnerung daran stehen. Meist inszenieren sich dabei christliche Deutsche öffentlich mit Familiengeschichten jüdischer Verfolgter und führen diese teils als Legitimation und Grundlage ihres politischen Handelns an. Ihnen begegnet ein Publikum, das die Geschichten bereitwillig rezipiert. In neun Gesprächen mit Personen unterschiedlicher Expertisen und Erfahrungen fragen Clemens Böckmann und Johannes Spohr nach den Voraussetzungen und Motivationen dieses Phänomens. Woher kommt das Bedürfnis, sich auf dies...
