Orthodox Identities in Western Europe
The Orthodox migration in the West matters, despite its unobtrusive presence. And it matters in a way that has not yet been explored in social and religious studies: in terms of size, geographical scope, theological input and social impact. This book explores the adjustment of Orthodox migrants and their churches to Western social and religious contexts in different scenarios. This variety is consistent with Orthodox internal diversity regarding ethnicity, migration circumstances, Church-State relations and in line with the specificities of the receiving country in terms of religious landscape, degree of secularisation, legal treatment of immigrant religious institutions or socio-economic configurations.

Cultural Heritage and Slavery
In the recent cultural heritage boom, community-based and national identity projects are intertwined with interest in cultural tourism and sites of the memory of enslavement. Questions of historical guilt and present responsibility have become a source of social conflict, particularly in multicultural societies with an enslaving past. This became apparent in the context of the Black Lives Matter movement in 2020, when statues of enslavers and colonizers were toppled, controversial debates about streets and places named after them re-ignited, and the European Union apologized for slavery after the racist murder of George Floyd.

The Account Books of the Reimarus Family of Hamburg, 1728-1780 (2 vols.)
In The Account Books of the Reimarus Family of Hamburg, 1728-1780, Almut Spalding and Paul S. Spalding offer a two-volume critical edition of domestic records that open windows onto early modern Europe and the Enlightenment. They detail economic realities, social circles, cultural and educational pursuits, leisure activities, religious communities, and institutions in the life of a great city and a distinguished family. Volume one consists of the transcription, with an introduction and illustrations. Volume two is an extensive index. Hermann Samuel Reimarus and his daughter Margareta Elisabeth (Elise) Reimarus carefully maintained these records over fifty years. The former was a notable classicist, biblical scholar, animal behaviorist, and freethinker; the latter, leader of a literary salon, educator, translator, and author.
Das Migrationsmuseum
Migration ist museumsreif geworden. Dies spiegelt sich in den vielfältigen Ausstellungen der vergangenen Jahre, aber auch in der Entstehung eines neuen Museumstyps - des Migrationsmuseums. Doch obwohl dessen Bedeutung für das kulturelle Gedächtnis von Einwanderungsgesellschaften unumstritten ist, wird über die konzeptionelle Gestaltung von Migrationsmuseen kontrovers diskutiert. Die vorliegende Studie analysiert Entstehungsprozesse, Realisierungsstrategien und konzeptionelle Gestaltungsspielräume ausgewählter Migrationsmuseen und bietet zugleich Einblicke in aktuelle Musealisierungstrends.
