"Fikcyjna rzeczywistość"
Temat okupacji, rozumianej jako narzucony system terroru, gwałtownie zmieniający dane społeczeństwo i dotykający każdego obywatela, nie jest ani przedmiotem gruntownych badań historycznych, ani głównym elementem pamięci kulturowej. Okupacja, jako doświadczenie historyczne, budzi też w wielu krajach odmienne recepcje, a w Niemczech w pamięci komunikatywnej i kulturowej kojarzona jest z okresem 1945–1949, gdy Niemcy znajdowały się pod pokojową okupacją aliantów. Z perspektywy różnorodnych doświadczeń okupacji w Europie oraz jej znaczenia dla zrozumienia traumy i interpretacji wojny w Polsce nowe spojrzenie na codzienność 1939–1945 i jej pamiętanie staje się ważny...

Emotions, Senses and Affects in the Context of Southeast Europe
The papers in this volume continue our focus on emotions of people in Southeast Europe. Grief and sadness are, of course, universal, but they take on different forms of expression. Strong emotional values are often attached to specific foods (e.g. the kurban), usually food is of great importance for labour migrants and in times of crisis. Likewise, dress can be of great emotional significance and value. Wars as well as communist collectivization often lead to emotional consequences such as trauma. Smells and tastes can become expressions of actual or remembered emotions, a fact that can also concern the researchers themselves. Klaus Roth is professor em. at the Institute for European Ethnology of Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich. Milena Benovska is professor em. of the Dept. of Ethnology and Balkan Studies of the South-West University of Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria. Ana Luleva is Assoc. Prof. at the Institute of Ethnology and Folklore Studies of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences in Sofia.

Instrumentalizing the Past
In today's world, we can point to many international disputes and interstate conflicts fueled by past events. Historical resentments or memories of past suffering or fame are often used to justify political, economic and even territorial demands. Inter-state disputes and historical conflicts should be understood as evidence of political and social tensions related to active, serious differences in the assessment of the common past. The book explains the role of such conflicts in international relations and suggests ways of classifying them. It presents examples of the internationally relevant instrumentalisation of history from different regions of the world and outlines ways of overcoming them.
Supplier for Hitler's War
This study is the first to comprehensively examine the development of the Continental rubber and tire company during the Nazi period using sources that have recently become available. It shows to which extent Continental developed into a model Nazi operation within the scope of the National Socialist autarky, armaments, and war economy and analyzes how it dealt with foreign workers and activities in occupied, allied, and neutral countries.
After Auschwitz
From the moment of its inception, the East German state sought to cast itself as a clean break from the horrors of National Socialism. Nonetheless, the precipitous rise of xenophobic, far-right parties across the present-day German East is only the latest evidence that the GDR’s legacy cannot be understood in isolation from the Nazi era nor the political upheavals of today. This provocative collection reflects on the heretofore ignored or repressed aspects of German mainstream society—including right-wing extremism, anti-Semitism and racism—to call for an ambitious renewal of historical research and political education to place East Germany in its proper historical context.
Heritage under Socialism
How was heritage understood and implemented in European socialist states after World War II? By exploring national and regional specificities within the broader context of internationalization, this volume enriches the conceptual, methodological and empirical scope of heritage studies through a series of fascinating case studies. Its transnational approach highlights the socialist world’s diverse interpretations of heritage and the ways in which they have shaped the trajectories of present-day preservation practices.
Seeking Accountability for Nazi and War Crimes in East and Central Europe
The thirst for post-World War II justice transcended the Cold War and mobilized diverse social groups. This is a story of their multilayered and at times conflictual interactions.
The Routledge International Handbook of Heritage and Politics
The Routledge International Handbook of Heritage and Politics surveys the intersection of heritage and politics today and helps elucidate the political implications of heritage practices. It explicitly addresses the political and analyses tensions and struggles over the distribution of power. Including contributions from early-career scholars and more established researchers, the Handbook provides global and interdisciplinary perspectives on the political nature, significance and consequence of heritage and the various practices of management and interpretation. Taking a broad view of heritage, which includes not just tangible and intangible phenomena, but the ways in which people and societ...
