  • When Fear Is Substituted for Reason: European and Western Government Policies Regarding National Security 1789-1919
    WHEN FEAR IS SUBSTITUTED FOR REASON: EUROPEAN AND WESTERN GOVERNMENT POLICIES REGARDING NATIONAL SECURITY 1789-1919 Norma Lisa Flores A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2012 Committee: Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Dr. Mark Simon Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Brooks Dr. Geoff Howes Dr. Michael Jakobson © 2012 Norma Lisa Flores All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Although the twentieth century is perceived as the era of international wars and revolutions, the basis of these proceedings are actually rooted in the events of the nineteenth century. When anything that challenged the authority of the state – concepts based on enlightenment, immigration, or socialism – were deemed to be a threat to the status quo and immediately eliminated by way of legal restrictions. Once the façade of the Old World was completely severed following the Great War, nations in Europe and throughout the West started to revive various nineteenth century laws in an attempt to suppress the outbreak of radicalism that preceded the 1919 revolutions. What this dissertation offers is an extended understanding of how nineteenth century government policies toward radicalism fostered an environment of increased national security during Germany’s 1919 Spartacist Uprising and the 1919/1920 Palmer Raids in the United States. Using the French Revolution as a starting point, this study allows the reader the opportunity to put events like the 1848 revolutions, the rise of the First and Second Internationals, political fallouts, nineteenth century imperialism, nativism, Social Darwinism, and movements for self-government into a broader historical context.

The blockade has received modest attention in the historiography of the First World War, despite the assertion in the British official history that extreme privation and hunger resulted in more than 750,000 German civilian deaths.

  • Christliche Demokratie in Deutschland
    Christliche Demokratie in Deutschland Winfried Becker Geschichtserzählungen können bekanntlich vielen Er- kenntniszielen dienen. Nicht nur Staaten, sondern auch Na- tionen übergreifende Großgruppen bilden ein Gedächtnis aus, bauen ein Erinnerungsvermögen auf. Durch den Blick in ihre Vergangenheit gewinnen sie Aufschlüsse über ihre Herkunft und ihre Identität. Dabei muss die Fragemethode dem Sujet, dem Gegenstand gerecht werden, den sie aller- dings selbst gewissermaßen mit konstituiert. Die Ge- schichte der an christlichen Wertmaßstäben (mit-)orientier- ten politischen und sozialen Kräfte in Deutschland kann zureichend weder aus der nationalliberalen Sichtweise des 19. Jahrhunderts noch mit den ökonomischen Begriffen der marxistischen Klassenanalyse erfasst werden. Sie wurzelte im politischen Aufbruch der katholischen Minderheit. De- ren Etikettierung als „reichsfeindlich“, national unzuver- lässig, „ultramontan“ und „klerikal“, d. h. unzulässig ins politische Gebiet eingreifend, entsprang nationalliberalen Sichtweisen, wurde vom Nationalsozialismus rezipiert und wirkte wohl unbewusst darüber hinaus.1 Auf die Dauer konnte sich aber in einem pluralistischer werdenden Geschichtsbewusstsein eine so einspännige Be- trachtungsweise nicht halten. Aus internationaler Perspek- tive stellt sich die katholische Bewegung heute eher facet- tenreich und durchaus politikrelevant dar. Sie entfaltete in ihren Beziehungen zur römischen Kurie und zu den be- nachbarten christlichen Konfessionen eine kirchenge- schichtliche Dimension. Sie zeigte ideengeschichtliche

  • 11 War and Revolution
    11 War and revolution Jeffrey Verhey It is a war of such power and tension as the world has never seen. All our physical and intellectual powers have fused together in this war, are heightened to their limits. Natural powers have become weapons of defence and destruction. The war is not just being fought in the field. The press, trade, the complete economic and intellectual life is fighting; everything has become attack and defence. In the nations involved, all aspects of life are at war. War has become the total meaning and the only purpose … We are no longer the same people we were at the beginning of the war, and we can no longer return to those we were, we must move forward. The outbreak of the war hit us like an earthquake, shook our very foundations and, as if by a flood, we are being carried away to new shores. We have no connection any more with who we were, with how we lived.1 Johannes Müller, a Protestant pastor, wrote these lines in late 1914 in his capacity as editor of Die Grünen Blätter (The Green Leaves)—a religious magazine that sought to counsel churchgoers in their daily lives. Before the war, Müller had often commented, sometimes quite whimsically, on the dangers to civilization posed by modernity. In 1914, like many of his contemporaries, Müller embraced the war as a fascinating experience, as a great, historic epoch: life for all Germans would never be the same. Müller did not state—as most contemporaries did not—how people had changed, or what the future would bring.

    Military History Anniversaries 16 thru 30 November Events in History over the next 15 day period that had U.S. military involvement or impacted in some way on U.S military operations or American interests Nov 16 1776 – American Revolution: Hessians capture Fort Washington » During the Revolutionary War, Lieutenant General Wilhelm von Knyphausen and a force of 3,000 Hessian mercenaries lay siege to Fort Washington on Long Island. Throughout the morning, Knyphausen met stiff resistance from the Patriot riflemen inside, but by the afternoon the Americans were overwhelmed, and the garrison commander, Colonel Robert Magaw, surrendered. Valuable ammunition and supplies were lost to the Hessians and 2,818 Americans were taken prisoner. The prisoners faced a particularly grim fate. Many later died from deprivation and disease aboard British prison ships anchored in New York Harbor. Among the 53 dead and 96 wounded Patriots were John and Margaret Corbin of Virginia. When John died in action, his wife Margaret took over his cannon, cleaning, loading and firing the gun until she too was severely wounded. The first woman known to have fought for the Continental Army, Margaret survived, but lost the use of her left arm. Two weeks earlier, William Demont had deserted from the Fifth Pennsylvania Battalion and given British intelligence agents information about the Patriot defense of New York, including information about the location and defense of Fort Washington. Demont was the first traitor to the Patriot cause, and his treason contributed significantly to Knyphausen’s victory. Nov 16 1776 – American Revolution: The United Provinces recognize the independence of the United States.
