Labor is Not a Commodity!
"The past decades witnessed a powerful return of struggles against what economic historian Karl Polanyi termed the commodification of social life. This book explores how organized workers in two metropolises of the late nineteenth century responded to the commodification of labor. In doing so, it reveals a striking continuity in collective opposition against the unfettered power of free markets. Drawing on contemporary feminist revisions of Polanyian thought, this book illustrates the ambiguous potential of movements for social protection"--Back cover.

The Revolutions in Europe, 1848-1849
These essays arose out of lectures given in Oxford to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the 1848 revolutions in Europe. Authoritative, yet readable and colourful, they comprise judicicious summaries of the existing stte of knowledge, as well as new insights and unfamiliar information. Thebook also seeks to place the revolutionary events in their wider context: apart from chapters covering the main centres of disturbance in France, Germany, Italy, and the Habsburg lands, there are discussions of the situation in Britain and Russia, which were affected but not convulsed by thedisorders elsewhere; of reactions in the United States of America; of the symbolism of 1848 for the later democratic, radical, and socialist movements. 1848 marked the first breakdown of traditional authority across much of the continent, and as such is of profound significance in the developmentof modern European politics as a whole.

Gedruckte Relationen und Voten des Reichskammergerichts vom 16. bis 18. Jahrhundert
Die Erforschung der richterlichen Entscheidungsprozesse des Reichskammergerichts stellt nach wie vor ein großes Forschungsdesiderat dar. Zu den wichtigsten Quellen, die über die juristische Methode und Argumentationsformen des Gemeinen Rechts und Prozessverfahrens Auskunft geben, gehört die so genannte Relation. Dabei handelt es sich um den Bericht eines Referenten, der im Senat den Akteninhalt vortragen und seine juristischen Überlegungen zu seinem Entscheidungsvorschlag darlegen musste. Die Relation war das Kernstück der wissenschaftlichen Rechtsanwendung in der Epoche des gelehrten Prozessrechtes. Sie wurde am Reichskammergericht entwickelt und bildete den Anfang einer Tradition, die...
1848
Europe was swept by a wave of revolution in 1848 that had repercussions stretching well beyond the Continent. Governments fell in quick succession or conceded significant reforms, before being rolled back by conservative reaction. Though widely perceived as a failure, the revolution ended the vestiges of feudalism, broadened civil society and strengthened the state prior to the rapid industrialisation and urbanisation of the latter part of the nineteenth century. This volume brings together essays from leading specialists on the international dimension, national experiences, political mobilisation, reaction and legacy.
