paperback. Condizione: Near Fine. PAPERBACK, near fine, attractive copy. WEISS-WENDT, ANTON, 1973- / YEOMANS, RORY, ed. . Racial science in Hitler's new Europe, 1938-1945. Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 2013, x, 394pp., . Series: Critical studies in the history of anthropology "In Racial Science in Hitler's New Europe, 1938-1945, international scholars examine the theories of race that informed the legal, political, and social policies aimed against ethnic minorities in Nazi-dominated Europe. The essays explicate how racial science, preexisting racist sentiments, and pseudoscientific theories of race that were preeminent in interwar Europe ultimately facilitated Nazi racial designs for a "New Europe." The volume examines racial theories in a number of European nation-states in order to understand racial thinking at large, the origins of the Holocaust, and the history of ethnic discrimination in each of those countries. The essays, by uncovering neglected layers of complexity, diversity, and nuance, demonstrate how local discourse on race paralleled Nazi racial theory but had unique nationalist intellectual traditions of racial thought. Written by rising scholars who are new to English-language audiences, this work examines the scientific foundations that central, eastern, northern, and southern European countries laid for ethnic discrimination, the attempted annihilation of Jews, and the elimination of other so-called inferior peoples." - CONTENTS: The Holocaust and Historiographical Debates on Racial Science / Anton Weiss-Wendt and Rory Yeomans -- Defining "(Un)Wanted Population Addition": Anthropology, Racist Ideology, and Mass Murder in the Occupied East / Isabel Heinemann -- Preserving the "Master Race"; ss Reproductive and Family Policies during the Second World War / Amy Carney -- Germanic Brothers: The Dutch and the Germanization of the Occupied East / Geraldien Non Frijtag Drabbe Künzel -- Pure- Blooded Vikings and Peasants: Norwegians in the Racial Ideology of the ss / Terje Emberland -- 'Nordic-Germanic" Dreams and National Realities: A Case Study of the Danish Region of Sonderjylland, 1933-1945 / Steffen Werther -- Eugenics into Science: The Nazi Period in Austria, 1938-1945 / Thomas Mayer -- Biological Racism and Antisemitism as Intellectual Constructions in Italian Fascism: the Case of Telesio Interlandi and La difesa della razza / Elisabetta Cassina Wolff -- Eradicating "Undesired Elements": National Regeneration and the Ustasha Regime's Program to Purify the Nation, 1941-1945 / Rory Yeomans -- "If Our Race Did Not Exist, It Would Have to Be Created": Racial Science in Hungry, 1940-1944 / Marius Turda -- In the Shadow of Ethnic Nationalism: Racial Science in Romania / Vladimir Solonari -- Building Hitler's "New Europe": Ethnography and Racial Research in Nazi-Occupied Estonia / Anton Weiss-Wendt -- In Pursuit of Biological Purity: Eugenics and Racial Paradigms in Nazi-Occupied Latvia, 1941-1945 /Björn M.

Paperback. Condizione: New. In post-Soviet Russia, there is a persistent trend to repress, control, or even co-opt national history. By reshaping memory to suit a politically convenient narrative, Russia has fashioned a good future out of a "bad past." While Putin's regime has acquired nearly complete control over interpretations of the past, The Future of the Soviet Past reveals that Russia's inability to fully rewrite its Soviet history plays an essential part in its current political agenda. Diverse contributors consider the many ways in which public narrative shapes Russian culture-from cinema, television, and music to museums, legislature, and education-as well as how patriotism reflected in these forms of culture implies a casual acceptance of the valorization of Stalin and his role in World War II. The Future of the Soviet Past provides effective and nuanced examples of how Russia has reimagined its Soviet history as well as how that past still influences Russia's policymaking.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. This book provides a bold examination of the political use of history in contemporary Russia. Anton Weiss-Wendt argues that history is yet another discipline misappropriated by the Kremlin for the purpose of rallying the population. He explains how, since the pro-democracy protests in 2011-12, the Russian government has hamstrung independent research and aligned state institutions in the promotion of militant patriotism. The entire state machinery has been mobilized to construe a single, glorious historical narrative with the focus on Soviet victory over Nazi Germany.Putin's Russia and the Falsification of History examines the intricate networks in Russia that engage in "historymaking." Whether it is the Holocaust or Soviet mass terror, Tsars or Stalin, the regime promotes a syncretic interpretation of Russian history that supports the notion of a strong state and authoritarian rule. That interpretation finds its way into new monuments, exhibitions, and quasi-professional associations. In addition to administrative measures of control, the Russian state has been using the penal code to censor critical perspectives on history, typically advanced by individuals who also happen to call for a political change in Russia.This powerful book shows how history is increasingly becoming an element of political technology in Russia, with the systematic destruction of independent institutions setting the very future of History as an academic discipline in Russia in doubt.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Using the framework of genocide, this volume analyzes the patterns of persecution of the Roma in Nazi-dominated Europe. Detailed case studies of France, Austria, Romania, Croatia, Ukraine, and Russia generate a critical mass of evidence that indicates criminal intent on the part of the Nazi regime to destroy the Roma as a distinct group. Other chapters examine the failure of the West German State to deliver justice, the Romani collective memory of the genocide, and the current political and historical debates. As this revealing volume shows, however inconsistent or geographically limited, over time, the mass murder acquired a systematic character and came to include ever larger segments of the Romani population regardless of the social status of individual members of the community.
