Liberty and the Search for Identity
Liberalism was not only the first modern ideology, it was also the first secular movement to have an international presence. The scholarly articles in this collection, skillfully edited by Iván Zoltán Dénes, examine liberal ideas and movements from Scotland to the Ottoman Empire. The volume seeks to uncover and analyze various relationships between liberalisms and nationalisms, national identities and modernity concepts, nations and empires, nation-states and nationalities, traditions and modernities, images of the self and the others, modernization strategies and identity creations. This volume provides an important historical analysis that is essential toward understanding the questions and motivations of liberalism in the European Union today. This is, therefore, a timely contribution to both historiography and contemporary politics.

Traumatisme collectif pour patrimoine. Regards sur un mouvement transnational
Guerres exogènes ou conflits endogènes, famines, catastrophes naturelles, esclavage, exploitations, dominations, humiliations : ces traumatismes partagés sont érigés en un patrimoine qui, pour douloureux qu’il soit, n’en n’est pas moins présent dans la construction mémorielle d’une communauté. Les traumatismes du passé constituent un héritage que les descendants des victimes d’hier portent désormais moins comme fardeau et plus comme patrimoine identitaire qui légitime les demandes de reconnaissance et de réparations. Or, cette patrimonialisation est accompagnée par l’affirmation du témoin au dépens de l’expert et par la montée de la mémoire, qui occupe la plac...

The Legionary Movement After Corneliu Codreanu
Corneliu Codreanu was a far-right, Romanian politician who established the Legion of the Archangel Michael in 1927. Alternately known as the Legionary Movement, this organization supported an ultra-nationalist, anti-Semitic, anti-communist, and anti-parliamentary position that would later become targeted by the reigning communist party. This book begins with the establishment of King Carol II's dictatorship and ends with the Palace coup of 1944, the moment in which Romania entered a Soviet sphere of influence and the legionnaires were made to suffer for their previous alliance with Germany. Most scholarship places the failure of Romanian-German collaboration solely upon the activities of the legionnaires. Ilarion Tiu offers a different view, providing a more detailed account of the legionnaires' history, philosophy both before and after Codreanu's 1938 death.
Final Report
The International Commission on the Holocaust in Romania was established in October 2003 on the initiative of Ion Iliescu, the President of Romania; this final report was presented to him in November 2004. The aim of the Commission was to research the facts and determine the truth about the Holocaust in Romania during World War II. The report examines various aspects of the state-organized participation of Romania in the mass murder of Jews in Romania and in Romanian-controlled territories, as well as in northern Transylvania where the genocide was perpetrated by the Nazis and their Hungarian allies. Inter alia, it discusses antisemitism and the evolution of Romanian anti-Jewish policies fro...
