Film Professionals in Nazi-Occupied Europe
This book analyses the film industries and cinema cultures of Nazi-occupied countries (1939-1945) from the point of view of individuals: local captains of industry, cinema managers, those working for film studios and officials authorized to navigate film policy. The book considers these people from a historical perspective, taking into account their career before the occupation and, where relevant, pays attention to their post-war lives. The perspectives of these historical agents” contributes to an understanding of how top-down orders and haphazard signals from the occupying administration were moulded, adjusted and distorted in the process of their translation and implementation. This edited collection offers a more dynamic and less deterministic approach to research on the international expansion of Third-Reich cinema in World War Two; an approach that strives to balance the role of individual agency with the structural determinants. The case studies presented in this book cover the territories of Belgium, Czechoslovakia, France, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland and the Soviet Union.
Transculturality and Perceptions of the Immigrant Other
No other issue in our times of globalization has aroused such passionate debate as the increasingly complex transborder movements of people of all ethnicities, with the self-perceived “from-heres” often struggling to maintain the illusion of separateness from intruding “come-heres.” The paradigm of transculturality offers prospects to rethink, demystify and represent cultural unity and difference, assimilation and alterity, in a manner that acknowledges the fissures and the fictions in traditional cultural dichotomies such as the melodramatically instrumentalized “national” vs. “foreign.” The interdisciplinary essays compiled in Transculturality and Perceptions of the Immigra...
Ein Kapitel der deutsch-niederländischen Fußballgeschichte

Deutsche Zeiten
Looking at the dislocations in German history in the nineteenth and twentieth century, nineteen historians from different generations and with different approaches explore questions of theory and method, structure and society, biography and everyday culture. The focus is on topics in German-Jewish history, National Socialism, sports – in particular soccer –, and the place of German history within modernity. With this volume, friends and colleagues, e.g. Norbert Frey, Hans Mommsen, and Hans-Urlich Wehler, pay tribute to the work of the historian Moshe Zimmermann on the occasion of his retirement.
