The Tragedy of Bleiburg and Viktring, 1945
The atrocities and mass murders committed by Josip Broz Tito's Partisan units of the Yugoslav Army immediately after the Second World War had no place in the conscience of Socialist Yugoslavia. More than once, the annual Croatian commemoration of the Bleiburg victims was subject to attacks carried out by the socialist Yugoslav state. Abroad in the West, on Austrian soil, the Yugoslav secret service (UDBA) did not shy away from murdering the protagonist of the Croatian memory culture, Nicola Martinovic, as late as 1975. The official history was aligned with a firm interpretational paradigm that called for a glorification of the anti-fascist "people's liberation resistance." With the breakup o...
Through the Prism of Gender and Work
This book examines women’s activism in and beyond Central and Eastern Europe and transnationally within and across different historical periods, political regimes, and scales of activism. The authors explore the wide range of activist agendas, repertoires, and forums in which women sought to advocate for their gender and labour interests. Women were engaged in trade unions, women-only organizations, state institutions, and international and intellectual networks, and were active on the shopfloor.

Jehovas Zeugen in Europa - Geschichte und Gegenwart
Ein Vierteljahrhundert nach dem Ende des Kalten Krieges stehen wir erneut vor einer geteilten Welt, in der der freiheitlich-liberale Westen in zähem Ringen Schritt für Schritt vor autoritären Staaten zurückweicht. Diese stellen sich ohne unabhängige Rechtsprechung wieder als historisch-politische Alternative zu den beispielhaften Errungenschaften der demokratischen Verfassungsstaaten dar. Dabei treten sie die einst mühsam errungenen Freiheitsrechte mit Füßen – am stärksten wohl die erste aller Freiheiten: die Religionsfreiheit. Die faktische Ohnmacht des Europäischen Gerichtshofs für Menschenrechte lässt alle Aussichten auf einen abermaligen Umschwung als Illusion erscheinen. Die Geschichte von Jehovas Zeugen in Europa zeigt exemplarisch bis in die Gegenwart, wie eine Religionsgemeinschaft ohne Rückhalt bei der Staatsmacht seit ihrem Bestehen dafür kämpfen muss, ihren Glauben öffentlich leben zu dürfen.
