Kooperation und Verbrechen
Welche Motive, Interessen und Handlungsspielräume hatten kooperierende einheimische Personen und Institutionen im östlichen Europa während der deutschen Besatzung? An vielen Orten hat es während des Zweiten Weltkrieges Formen von Zusammenarbeit zwischen deutschen Stellen und einheimischen Regierungen, Verwaltungen oder Einzelpersonen gegeben. Die Autorinnen und Autoren dieses Bandes untersuchen die Motive, Interessen und Handlungsspielräume der kooperierenden Akteure im östlichen Europa und fragen danach, welchen Einfluß ihr Handeln auf die begangenen Verbrechen, insbesondere gegen die jüdische Bevölkerung, hatte. Sie zeigen dabei, daß diese Gruppen einerseits in einem komplexen und dynamischen Verhältnis zu den deutschen zivilen und militärischen Instanzen standen, andererseits aber auch selbständig Handelnde mit eigenen Interessen waren.
Chemical and Biological Terrorism
The threat of domestic terrorism today looms larger than ever. Bombings at the World Trade Center and Oklahoma City's Federal Building, as well as nerve gas attacks in Japan, have made it tragically obvious that American civilians must be ready for terrorist attacks.

Chemical and Biological Terrorism identifies the R&D efforts needed to implement recommendations in key areas: pre-incident intelligence, detection and identification of chemical and biological agents, protective clothing and equipment, early recognition that a population has been covertly exposed to a pathogen, mass casualty decontaminati...

The Shtetl
"There is no possibility of entering the world of Yiddish, its literature and culture, without understanding what the shtetl was, how it functioned, and what tensions charged its existence. Whether idealized or denigrated, evaluated as the site of memory or mined for historical data, scrutinized as a socio-economic phenomenon or explored as the mythopoetics of a rich literature, the shtetl was the heart of Eastern European Jewry. The papers published in this volume - most of them presented at the second Mendel Friedman International Conference on Yiddish organized by the Oxford European Humanities Research Centre and the Oxford Institute for Yiddish Studies (July 1999) - re-examines the structure, organization and function of numerous small market towns that shaped the world of Yiddish. The different perspectives from which these studies view the shtetl trenchently re-evaluate common preconceptions, misconceptions and assumptions, and offer new insights that are challenging as they are informative."
