20Th Century European, World Conflicts Dr. Klein Hist-396\696 Spring '09 20th Century European, World Conflicts Dr. Klein Hist-396\696 Spring '09 Syllabus: Part 2: Additional Readings 1) IMPERIALISM AND WORLD POLITICS The standard work on the diplomacy of the imperial era, although old, is William Langer=s Diplomacy of Imperialism ; the most brilliant, is by Hannah Arendt, Imperialism , also found as Pt. 1 of her Origins of Totalitarianism , but it is a difficult work. A literary classic of significance is Joseph Conrad =s. Heart of Darkness . Another, on the internal impact of imperialism is George Orwell =s Burmese Days . A synthesizing book, useful for this course in Winfred Baumgart =s Imperialism . D.K. Fieldhouse puts forward his ideas in Colonialism and The Colonial Empires. The important ideas of John Gallagher and R. Robinson are discussed in William R. Lewis, Imperialism , The Gallagher-Robinson Controversy . See also, J. Gallagher and R. Robinson, Africa and the Victorians . Another writer of intellectual significance is A. P. Thornton, whose works include The Imperial Idea and Its Enemies , Doctrines of Imperialism and Imperialism in the Twentieth Century . Among works that deal with diplomatic features of imperialism are George Monger, The End of Isolation and Ian Nish, The Anglo-Japanese Alliance , both focusing primarily on British policies. For French expansion see John Cady, The Roots of French Imperialism in Eastern Asia , Herbert Priestly, France Overseas ; Stephen Roberts, French Colonial Policy ; Thomas Power, Jules Ferry and French Imperialism . For Germany, A.J.P. Taylor, Germany =s First Bid for Colonies ; and W.O. Aydelotte, Bismarck and British Colonial Policy ; and M.E. Townsend The Rise and Fall of Germany =s Colonial Empire ; and W.D. Smith, The German Colonial Empire; and W.O. Henderson, Studies in German Colonial History . On Russia: B.H. Sumner, Tsardom and Imperialism ; D. J. Dallin, The Rise of Russia in Asia ; J. A. White, The Diplomacy of the Russo-Japanese War ; and D. Walder, The Short Victorious War Russo-Japanese Conflict . On racial and psychological aspects, see O. Manoni, Prospero and Caliban ; and Philip Mason, Prospero =s Magic . A Marxist orientation is found in V. G. Kiernan, Marxism and Imperialism . Among more specialized or local studies, mainly focusing on British policy are: B. Porter, The Lion =s Share ; and R.

P. Taylor =s Struggle for Mastery in Europe , difficult and demanding reading. Among older general studies of the origins of the ΑGreat War ≅ are those by Harry Elmer Barnes, S.B. Fay, Bernadette Schmitt, G.P. Gooch, Eric Brandenburg, Pierre Reneuvin, and Luigi Albertini, many quite massive and detailed. More recent works, noted for either style, brevity, or controversy, number L.C. Turner, Origins of World War I ; Dwight Lee, Europe =s Crucial Years ; Joachim Remak, The Origins of World War I ; V.R. Burghahn, Germany and the Approach to War ; the last two are noted for integrating domestic and international developments. The most controversial but influential tome is by Fritz Fischer, Germany =s Aims and Approach to War . See also J.A. Moses, The Politics of Illusion: The Fischer Revolution in German Historiography , and I. Geiss, German Foreign Policy . Among useful memoirs (valuable for term papers) are those by Edward Gray, R.B. Haldane, Raymond Poincare, Theobold Bethmann-Holwig and Bernard Von Bulow, and the leading German and British Admirals, Fisher and Tirpitz. For national or special studies, see P.M. Kennedy, The Rise of Anglo- German Antagonism ; J. Nere, The Foreign Policy of France ; R.J. Bosworth, Italy, the Least of the Great Powers ; C.J. Lowe and F. Marzari, Italian Foreign Policy ; George Monger, End of Isolation, British Foreign Policy 1900-1909 ; C. Andrew, Delcasse and the Making of the Entente Cordiale ; E.C. Helmreich, Diplomacy of the Balkan Wars ; C. Hazelhurst, Politicians at War . On the war itself, see general works by Basil Liddell Hart (a distinguished strategist, and an originator of ΑFluid War ≅ - renamed by the Germans as ΑBlitzkreig ≅). See also books by H. Baldwin and C.B. Falls. Additionally, P. Kennedy, War Plans of the Great Powers ; and on war and society, M. Ferre, The Great War . For literate, individual reactions to trench warfare and slaughter, see George Shersten (Siegfried Sassoon), Memoirs ; and Robert Greaves, Goodbye to All That . Among the many studies of individual war phases and struggles are Barbara Tuchman, Guns of August , vivid but overblown; G. Ritter, The Schlieffen Plan ; Alan Moorehead, Gallipoli ; N. Stone, The Eastern Front ; T. Ackworth, Trench Warfare ; E.J. Lead, No Man =s Land . On home front activities, see J. Williams, The Other Battleground: Home Fronts, Britain, France, Germany . A comparable study for the United States is D.N. Kennedy, Over Here . G. Hardach, The First World War is an economic not a military study. Other special studies include M. Kitchen, The German High Command: Hindenburg and Ludendorff ; A. J. May. The Passing of the Hapsburg Empire ; Z.A. Zeman, Breakup of the Hapsburg Empire ; R.B. Armenson, Total Warfare and Compulsory Labor . Among the most worthwhile studies of the diplomacy of war and peace making are V.H. Rothwell, British War Aims and Peace Diplomacy ; D. Stevenson, French War Aims Against Germany ; P.C. Helmreich, From Paris to Sevres ; Partition of the Ottoman Empire ; K.J. Calder, Britain and the Origins of The New Europe ; A.J. Mayer, Political Origin of the New Diplomacy; L.L. Farrar, Divide and Conquer, German Efforts for a Separate Peace; John Wheeler Bennet, The Forgotten Peace: Brest- Litovsk ; L. Stein, The Balfour Declaration . Focusing particularly on Versailles are the old Αclassics, ≅ Harold Nicholson, Peacemaking and J.M. Keynes, The Economic Consequences of Peace , both critical of Wilsonism; P. Birdsall, Versailles Twenty Years After ; Eli Mantoux, Cartheginian Peace ; J.M. Thompson, Russia, Bolshevism, and the Versailles Peace . See also C.L. Mee, The End of Order:Versailles ; M.L. Dockrill and J.E. Goold, Peace Without Promise ; and studies of Italy at Versailles by Rene Albrecht Carrie, and of the German-Polish settlement by I. Morrow. 3) REVOLUTIONARY AND DEPRESSION EUROPE The course focuses for a time on internal, revolutionary changes in Europe in order to 3 understand international relations and the coming of World War II. More than a pro-forma knowledge is needed of revolution and instability to relate it to war. Among the numerous relevant volumes on Russia are surveys of the old regime by Hugh Seton Watson, Bernard Pares, and Richard Pipes. There are good biographies of Lenin by David Shub, Louis Fischer, Robert Conquest and M.C. Morgan. Special studies which cover the pre-revolutionary era include D.W. Treadgold, Lenin and His Rivals ; L. Haimson, Russian Marxists and the Origins of Bolshevism ; S.H. Baron, Plekanov , and Adam Ulam, The Bolsheviks , and F. Venturi, Roots of Revolution . A useful comparative biography is Bertram Wolfe =s Three Who Made a Revolution . A short analytical synthesis is T.H. Von Laue =s Why Lenin, Why Stalin, Why Gorbachev . The outstanding biography of Trotsky is Isaac Deutscher =s three volumes, particularly The Prophet Armed . Other biographers of worth on Trotsky are L. Howe, R. Payne, and R. Segal. For Stalin, Adam Ulam =s Stalin: Man and Era is usually rated best; but see also biographies by Deutscher and R.C. Tucker. On the revolution and beyond, see the one volume synopsis of E.H. Carr =s massive study, Russian Revolution: Lenin to Stalin ; and see also M. Ferre Russian Revolution of 1917 ; J.H. Keep, The Russian Revolution ; T. Hasegawa, The February Revolution ; Leonard Schapiro, The Communist Party of the USSR, and The Origins of the Communist Autocracy ; Richard Pipes, The Formation of the Soviet Union , (on policies toward nationalities); George Kennan, Russia and the West Under Lenin and Stalin (an intelligent, influential American diplomat =s view); Kruschev Remembers ; James Billington, The Icon and the Axe , on Russian culture; John Hazard =s studies on Soviet law; A. Nove =s Economic History of the USSR; and J.P. Nettle =s assessment, The Soviet Achievement . A brilliant if abstruse intellectual work centering (eventually) on the idea of Fascism is Hannah Arendt =s Origins of Totalitarianism ; and another intellectual milestone is Karl Popper=s Open Society and Its Enemies . A brilliant comparative study is Ernst Nolte =s Three Faces of Fascism .

  • Kampen MAO ZEDONG, ZHOU ENLAI and the CHINESE COMMUNIST
    Kampen MAO ZEDONG, ZHOU ENLAI AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE CHINESE COMMUNIST LEADERSHIP MAO ZEDONG, ZHOU ENLAI Thomas Kampen MAO ZEDONG, ZHOU ENLAI AND THE CHINESE COMMUNIST LEADERSHIP NIAS AND THE EVOLUTION OF This book analyses the power struggles within the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party between 1931, when several Party leaders left Shanghai and entered the Jiangxi Soviet, and 1945, by which time Mao Zedong, Liu THE CHINESE COMMUNIST Shaoqi and Zhou Enlai had emerged as senior CCP leaders. In 1949 they established the People's Republic of China and ruled it for several decades. LEADERSHIP Based on new Chinese sources, the study challenges long-established views that Mao Zedong became CCP leader during the Long March (1934–35) and that by 1935 the CCP was independent of the Comintern in Moscow. The result is a critique not only of official Chinese historiography but also of Western (especially US) scholarship that all future histories of the CCP and power struggles in the PRC will need to take into account. “Meticulously researched history and a powerful critique of a myth that has remained central to Western and Chinese scholarship for decades. Kampen’s study of the so-called 28 Bolsheviks makes compulsory reading for anyone Thomas Kampen trying to understand Mao’s (and Zhou Enlai’s!) rise to power. A superb example of the kind of revisionist writing that today's new sources make possible, and reminder never to take anything for granted as far as our ‘common knowledge’ about the history of the Chinese Communist Party is concerned.” – Michael Schoenhals, Director, Centre for East and Southeast Asian Studies, Lund University, Sweden “Thomas Kampen has produced a work of exceptional research which, through the skillful use of recently available Chinese sources, questions the accepted wisdom about the history of the leadership of the CCP.

    An Annotated Bibliography by Jack Baur and Amanda Jacobs-Foust with Carla Avitabile, Casey Gilly, Jessica Lee, Holly Nguyen, JoAnn Rees, Shawna Sherman, and Elsie Tep May 17th, 2012 Table of Contents Introduction 2 Young Readers 3 Middle School 7 High School 14 Older Teens 22 Prepared by BAYA for the California Library Association 1 Introduction It’s no secret that comics (or “graphic novels,” if you prefer) are hot items in the library world these days. Oh, we’ve known that for years, but recently publishers have been getting into the game in a big way. Too big, arguably. As publishers struggle, it seems like more and more they are turning to graphic novels as new revenue streams, to diversify existing properties, or as ways to repackage old content. With the deluge of titles coming at us, it’s becoming increasingly difficult for a librarian who isn’t deeply invested in their GN collection or tuned into the world of comics publishing to discern the excellent titles from the merely popular, and the quality from the... well, crap. And oh there’s a lot of crap out there these days... But there’s a whole lot of great stuff, too. Comics are a wonderful and unique medium, which allow any kind of story or instruction to be delivered in a way that is fun, engaging, and accessible. Just like other storytelling forms, the content can be simple and amusing, or it can be deep and challenging. It’s no surprise that comics are seeing such a jump in popularity and acceptance now.
