Ich habe dich vermisst
Georg Reuter, der größte Obstbauer im Dorf, versäumt es in seiner Sturheit, seinen Betrieb den Gegebenheiten der modernen Zeit anzupassen. Er tyrannisiert seine Familie und seine Landarbeiter und führt seinen Betrieb mit harter Hand. Sein älterer Sohn Andreas verlässt nach einem heftigen Streit und der Uneinsichtigkeit des Vaters von einem Tag zum anderen das Gut und lässt seine Jugendliebe Eva ohne ein Wort des Abschieds zurück. Eva fühlt sich alleine gelassen und verliert auch noch ihre Arbeit. Es muss viel passieren, bis das Schicksal Andreas nach Hause ruft. Schnell holt ihn die Vergangenheit ein, und er merkt, wie sehr er Eva noch liebt. Ob sie ihm verzeihen kann? Eine bewegende Geschichte rund um die Gefühle der Liebe in einer ländlichen Umgebung.
The Mongolian Collections
This volume presents the results of a project realised within the research programme Research at Museums (forMuse). Selected objects from the collections of the Austrian research traveller and collector Hans Leder (1843-1921), which are located at the Weltmuseum Vienna and other ethnographic museums in Central Europe, are reunited here for the first time. These are primarily Buddhist ritual items of daily life in northern Mongolia around 1900. Following an introduction to the history of the collection, with numerous original quotations by the collector, and historic and recent insights to Mongolian Buddhism, specific object groups are presented and described. An illustrated section within this appealingly designed book shows as yet unpublished object photographs that were taken during the project. The volume brings together descriptions of artefacts from multiple points of view. The interdisciplinary project team thus provides a new approach to a collection of Mongolian art which is unique in its abundance and authenticity. With contributions by Agnes Birtalan, Olaf Czaja, Bela Kelenyi, Maria-Katharina Lang, Lhagvademchig S. Jadamba and Krisztina Teleki.

From Toleration to Expulsion
On April 6, 1948, a significant portion of the population of the village of Ecsny in Somogy County, Hungary, was expelled from their homeland. This was the result of Protocol XIII of the Potsdam Declaration of 1945 calling for the orderly and humane transfer of German populations now living in Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary. The families involved were descendants of German settlers who began to arrive in what would become the village of Ecsny as early as 1754. They formed an Evangelical Lutheran congregation at the outset that would survive as an underground movement until the Edict of Toleration promulgated by the Emperor Joseph II of Austria in 1782. These two governmental actions tak...
Rebellious Riots
Is violent conflict in Africa urbanizing? How do urban protests and civil war intersect? How do narratives, mechanisms and identities of contention move between urban and rural arenas?

Applying diverging perspectives and methods from political science, anthropology and urban African studies, the book carefully constructs the relational and entangled nature of contemporary forms of contentious politics in Niger, Democratic Republic of Congo, Côte d’Ivoire, Sierra Leone and Ethiopia.
