  • History of Biology in the Netherlands a Historical
    HISTORY OF BIOLOGY IN THE NETHERLANDS A HISTORICAL SKETCH Bert Theunissen and Robert P.W. Visser As in most coimtries, the history of biology as an academic discipline is of relatively recent origin in the Netherlands. The first full-time professionals were appointed in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Their number has never been large, and one sometimes worries that the entire population may one day be wiped out by sheer 'drift'. Yet so far we've managed to stay alive - in fact, the prospects are not too bad at the moment. As elsewhere, the professional historians of biology in the Netherlands were preceded by generations of enthusiastic amateurs. We shall not even try to give all of them their due share in this overview, restricting our account to some general remarks on developments over the last century and to a few representative twen­ tieth-century figures. The historical genres to flourish the most in the pre-professional era were biographies, publications of the 'life and work' type, and commemorative volumes. A useful bibliography of the more important works published from the beginning of the century up to the early 1960s can be found in a review compiled by Frans Verdoorn in 1%3.' Among the Dutch biologists who showed more than a fleeting interest in the history of their discipline and whose works clearly transcend the status of occasional writings, two of the most outstanding are F.W.T. Hunger and A. Schierbeek. They paved the way for the professionalization of the discipline in the Netherlands, particularly in that their activities and pubHcations aroused a lasting interest in the history of biology in Dutch academic circles.

  • The London School of Economics and Political Science
    The London School of Economics and Political Science «Les Belles Années du Plan»? Hendrik de Man and the Reinvention of Western European Socialism, 1914-36 ca. Tommaso Milani A thesis submitted to the Department of International History of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, September 2017. 1 DECLARATION I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgment is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 99,843 words. 2 ABSTRACT The thesis discusses the trajectory of the Belgian socialist thinker and activist Hendrik de Man (1885-1953) between 1914 and 1936 ca, with particular attention to his endeavours to renew Western European social democracy after the Great War. The first half of the thesis deals with de Man’s theoretical evolution. Having become convinced of the inadequacy of orthodox Marxism as a conceptual framework for the Left while serving as soldier and diplomat during WWI, de Man sought to overcome the split between reformism and revolutionary socialism by developing an ethical conception of socialism outlined in the book Zur Psychologie des Sozialismus (1926) and, subsequently, by elaborating planism, a democratic socialist ideology supposedly more in tune with the socio-economic conditions of the 1930s.

  • Views of Western Scholars on George Sarton's Introduction to the History
    International Journal of Business and Social Science Vol. 5, No. 7(1); June 2014 Views of Western Scholars on George Sarton’s Introduction to the History of Science Nabihah Liyana Salan Roziah Sidik @ Mat Sidek Department of Arabic Studies and Islamic Civilization Faculty of Islamic Studies Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Selangor, Malaysia. Abstract This article discusses an outstanding founder figure of the discipline of history of science, namely George Sarton who contributed many works, including books and articles. His most notable success is the three-volume Introduction to the History of Science. This work contains biographies of great scientists throughout time including scientists of the Islamic civilization. In fact, the writing of this work bears references to sources of authority in the Islamic civilization. This work has also been given a distinctive evaluation by Western scholars. Thus, the purpose of this article is to examine Western scholars’ views on Sarton’s work, Introduction to the History of Science. The research methodology used is a qualitative approach by content analysis as reference sources are document in form. Besides that, a hermeneutic approach is also used to make interpretations of the work. The scope of this research focuses on the work Introduction to the History of Science and Western scholars’ views on it. Research results find that Introduction to the History of Science had received a positive response from Western scholars such as E.G.B. and Francis R.Johnson even though George Sarton had in fact referred to authoritative sources in Arabic language, particularly when discussing scientific figures in the Islamic civilization.

KENNETH BERTRAMS PLANNING AND THE ‘T ECHNO -C ORPORATIST BARGAIN ’ IN WESTERN EUROPE AND THE UNITED STATES , 1914–44 DIFFUSION AND CONFUSION OF ECONOMIC MODELS The traffic of political and economic ideas between Europe and the United States in the aftermath of World War I is no longer a terra incognita for historians. In the wake of Charles Maier’s groundbreaking work on the transformation of bourgeois Europe, 1 numerous studies have contributed to sharpening the picture of stabilization which affected most stages of West- ern European political development after 1918 by stressing the role of the United States in this (mostly invisible) process. 2 These accounts suggest – and there is ample evidence to back this – that the American impact on Europe dates back to way before 1945, albeit in a less formal way. On the other hand, notwithstanding their indisputable merits, they all share the same caveat : Most of them tend to present this impact as a one-way street, namely as U.S.

This paper analyses the contents and the style of the Bullettino di bibliografia e di storia delle scienze matematiche e fisiche (1868–1887), the first journal entirely devoted to the history of mathematics. It is argued that its innovative and controversial methodological approach cannot be properly understood without considering the cultural conditions in which the journal was conceived and realized. The style of the Bullettino was far from being the mere outcome of the eccentric personality of its editor, Prince Baldassarre Boncompagni. Rather, it reflected in many ways, at the level of historiography of science, the struggle of the official Roman Catholic culture against the growing secularization of knowledge and society. While history of mathematics was a well-established discipline by the mid-nineteenth century, no periodical which was entirely devoted to such a discipline existed until 1868.

Paul Mansion and the scientific approach of randomness 1 Laurent Mazliak Abstract The present paper studies how the Belgian mathematician Paul Mansion became interested in probability theory. The Belgian mathematical environment, in which probability was present more than in many other countries at the same time appears to have been favorable but also the fact that Mansion, a declared and militant Catholic, found in probability a source of reflection about determinism and randomness in the context of the “modernist crisis” in the Church. Mansion’s activity developed on the background of the scholar wars and the foundation of Catholic institutions such as the Institute for philosophy in Louvain, of the consolidation of mathematical education in Belgium as well as of a new interest for probabilistic results in science.

  • Neo-Socialism and the Fascist Destiny of an Anti-Fascist Discourse
    "Order, Authority, Nation": Neo-Socialism and the Fascist Destiny of an Anti-Fascist Discourse by Mathieu Hikaru Desan A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Sociology) in the University of Michigan 2016 Doctoral Committee: Professor George Steinmetz, Chair Professor Howard Brick Assistant Professor Robert S. Jansen Emeritus Professor Howard Kimeldorf Professor Gisèle Sapiro Centre national de la recherche scientifique/École des hautes études en sciences sociales Acknowledgments Scholarly production is necessarily a collective endeavor. Even during the long isolated hours spent in dusty archives, this basic fact was never far from my mind, and this dissertation would be nothing without the community of scholars and friends that has nourished me over the past ten years. First thanks are due to George Steinmetz, my advisor and Chair. From the very beginning of my time as a graduate student, he has been my intellectual role model. He has also been my champion throughout the years, and every opportunity I have had has been in large measure thanks to him. Both his work and our conversations have been constant sources of inspiration, and the breadth of his knowledge has been a vital resource, especially to someone whose interests traverse disciplinary boundaries. George is that rare sociologist whose theoretical curiosity and sophistication is matched only by the lucidity of this thought. Nobody is more responsible for my scholarly development than George, and all my work bears his imprint. I will spend a lifetime trying to live up to his scholarly example. I owe him an enormous debt of gratitude.

  • Le PSB S'ouvre Aux Classes Moyennes(O)
    1945-1954: Le PSB s'ouvre aux classes moyennes(o) SARAH TIMPERMAN Licenciée en histoire Université Libre de Bruxelles 1. INTRODUCTION Les classes moyennes belges connaissent depuis une dizaine d'années un intérêt croissant de la part des historiens qui, jusque là, s'étaient désintéressés de cette catégorie de travailleurs pour se concentrer sur la question sociale et les rapports entre bourgeoisie et classe ouvrière. A ce jour, la majorité des ouvrages de synthèse consacrée aux classes moyennes concerne soit leur situation avant la Première Guerre mondiale, soit leur évolution en Flandre uniquement. Mais, dans les deux cas, les rapports qu'elles entretiennent avec le mouvement ouvrier ne sont abordés que de façon superficielle. En 1996, cependant, deux contributions publiées dans la peur du rouge1 abordent la problématique des rapports entre le Parti Ouvrier belge et les classes moyennes depuis 1880 jusqu'à la veille de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Le présent article s'inscrit donc dans la continuité de ces travaux puisque nous tenterons d'ana- lyser l'évolution de ces rapports après 1945. De ce fait, il participe également de la volonté de mieux connaître une classe sociale longtemps définie de manière très générale ou négative comme ce fut le cas après la Seconde Guerre mondiale lorsque son attitude face au fascisme fut mise en avant et qu'elle fut décrite comme une classe hostile au progrès, encline aux régimes autori- taires et opposée aux autres milieux sociaux. Comme nous le verrons dans un premier point, cela n'a pas toujours été le cas et des facteurs de rapprochement entre classes moyennes et classe ouvrière existaient depuis le XIXe siècle.
