Etre historien des relations internationales
Pour René Girault, " être historien des relations internationales ", ce n'est pas seulement faire de l'histoire des relations internationales ou développer des recherches dans ce domaine, c'est aussi se poser des questions d'historien ; c'est réfléchir sans cesse sur la validité de ce qui constitue sa propre discipline. Parce que cette préoccupation marque constamment et fructueusement son œuvre, René Girault s'inscrit dans la prestigieuse lignée de Pierre Renouvin et de Jean-Baptiste Duroselle. Ses nombreux disciples ont voulu lui rendre hommage en rassemblant certains de ses textes et en sélectionnant précisément ceux qui rendent le mieux compte de sa réflexion historique. A ...
Modern Catholic Social Teaching
Outstanding reference work for anyone interested in studying and understanding the key documents of modern Catholic social teaching. (The "modern" period begins in 1891, when Pope Leo XIII wrote "Rerum Novarum," a formal letter, known as an encyclical, on the condition of workers.) Part One includes four essays to provide a context for Catholic social teaching; Part Two includes fourteen commentaries on major documents; and Part Three, with three essays, focuses on broad themes, including the future of Catholic social teaching. The commentaries are the meat of the book, and they reflect a simple framework that will appeal in particular to non-specialists: an intro; an outline; the ecclesial and social context; authorship and process of formulation; the primary essay; reactions to the document; an excursus; and a select, annotated bibliography. All of the contributors represent progressive Catholicism in the United States, that is, scholars within the tradition committed to the ongoing renewal of the church in the spirit of Vatican II.
Europe brisée, Europe retrouvée
Sous ce titre évocateur le lecteur trouvera des articles de chercheurs de l'Institut Pierre Renouvin consacrés à l'unité et à l'identité européennes au XXe siècle. Des pistes de réflexion ont été ouvertes, des relectures ont été faites par des historiens à même de développer des problématiques nouvelles parce qu'ils ont eu accès à des archives neuves. Il faut donc souligner l'apport conceptuel et documentaire de ces travaux. Les questions abordées concernent la géographie de l'Europe, un continent sur les atlas, en fait une série de compartiments ; l'Europe est diverse. Elles font apparaître une certaine pratique culturelle commune qui, universalisme oblige, prétend s...
A Low, Dishonest Decade
Focusing on the rivalries among the Great Powers in the search for markets during the world depression of the 1930s, the author surveys the five Major Powers and all the Eastern European countries from the Baltic to Turkey. But he primarily canvases the economic situations in locations like Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and Yugoslavia.
Origins of the Second World War Reconsidered
When A.J.P. Taylor's The Origins of the Second World War appeared in 1961 it made a profound impact. The book became a classic and a central point of reference in all discussion on the Second World War. The second edition of this distinguished collection, written by leading experts in the field, is designed to bring the state of the argument up to date. The issues discussed include: * the legacy of the Treaty of Versailles * Hitlers foreign policy * Appeasement * AJP Taylor and the Russians * the treatment of the crises leading up to war including the Anschluss, Danzig, Abysinnian crises and the Spanish Civil War. This second edition will ensure that The Origins of the Second World War will remain a high priority student and scholarly reading lists.
Haunted by History
This book explores the origin and propagation of myths in international relations. The 16 contributions demonstrate how formative historical events are often transformed into handy cliche s which are subsequently drawn on by politicians and journalists who apply these simplistic patterns to current events. Myths discussed include the Spanish Civil War, Yalta, British difference, and the German Sonderweg. The book focuses on the relationship of these myths to current policy-making.

Caught in the Middle
The essays in this collection cover not only multiple countries, but also multiple aspects of the concept of neutrality: political, economic, cultural and legal. These case studies have led to a re-evaluation of the notion of neutrality, and the role of neutrals, during the First World War, making this collection of great value to all scholars of neutrality, the history of individual neutral countries, and of the war itself.
