Steinmetz Steps
Johann Philipp Steinmetz married 1st, Miss Volcamari and had 5 children; then 2nd, Tida Lucia Bierhausen in 1735.

Fielding Transnationalism
Fielding Transnationalism is a work in progress and one that we hope will be sustained in the future. Together the papers in this volume show the strengths of field theory for apprehending transnational processes and relations, even as they also raise questions for future work. In the spirit of Bourdieu's own work, the papers are grounded in fine-grained empirical research, and the empirical range is wide. Some speak to institutions that are or could be central to discussions of the transnational in political science - such as the European Central Bank (Mudge and Vauchez), the US government (Stampnitzky), and the British and the German empire (Wilson; Steinmetz). Others show their sociological heritage by also paying attention to cultural production (Buchholz), to academic disciplines (Steinmetz; Krause), and to journalism (Christin). Empirically, of course, there are many further areas of inquiry that could benefit from a field analysis. We could learn from a wide range of historical and contemporary cases. These papers offer a starting point.

Steinmetz: Engineer and Socialist
When Charles Proteus Steinmetz (1865-1923) died suddenly at the height of his fame, his face was as familiar to Americans as that of Babe Ruth, Henry Ford, or Jack Dempsey. Newspapers quoted his views on religion, politics (he was a Socialist), science, and future technological wonders. All were intrigued by the Horatio Alger tale of the penniless, hunchbacked German immigrant who rose to fame as the Wizard of Science, chief engineer at General Electric, and symbol of the new breed of scientists who daily surpassed the feats of Thomas Alva Edison. This intellectual biography follows Steinmetz from his education in Germany to his rise as General Electric’s chief consulting engineer. Steinme...
