  • Nooit Meer Auschwitz Lezing 2017
    Nooit Meer Auschwitz Lezing 2017 by Professor dr. Timothy D. Snyder Amsterdam, 25 januari 2017 NEDERLANDS AUSCHWITZ COMITÉ Nooit Meer Auschwitz Lezing 2017 by Professor dr. Timothy D. Snyder Amsterdam, 25 januari 2017 2 Timothy D. Snyder Auschwitz Never Again Lecture 3 Laudatio Annetje Fels-Kupferschmid Award 2017 Timothy Snyder Excellencies, distinguished guests, friends, ladies and gentlemen, “Conventional wisdom is like a sheet of ice, covering the dark sea of the undiscovered”. “Does the narrative [offered by the historian] move like an icebreaker?” “Does it leave in its wake a view of the deep, black line through white ice – a passage, that others may follow?” These words come from one of the books by Professor Timothy Snyder. I thank the jury of the Annetje Fels-Kupferschmidt Award for asking me to talk about this scholar and public intellectual, whose work I have been following for fifteen years. The quoted passage applies very well to him. Through his consistently excellent publications and presentations, about the Holocaust and mass violence in general, all of which receiving a huge audience, Timothy Snyder has indeed been just that – an icebreaker. More than anyone else, this laureate of the award has brought together two distinct scholarly universes. There is the universe of Holocaust Studies and German Studies, on the one hand. And there is the universe of scholarship on Eastern Europe under Communist rule, on the other. More convincingly and effectively than anyone else, Snyder has drawn the attention of specialists and laypeople alike to the lands of Europe where the regimes of Hitler and Stalin committed mass murder.

  • Roshwald on Berger and Miller, 'Nationalizing Empires'
    H-Nationalism Roshwald on Berger and Miller, 'Nationalizing Empires' Review published on Friday, January 15, 2016 Stefan Berger, Alexei Miller, eds. Nationalizing Empires. Budapest: Central European University Press, 2014. 700 pp. $85.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-963-386-016-8. Reviewed by Aviel Roshwald (Georgetown University) Published on H-Nationalism (January, 2016) Commissioned by Cristian Cercel Until a few years ago, many of us inhabited a historical universe that seemed neatly divided among an imperial past, a national present, and a supra-national future. The decolonization of Asia, the Middle East, and Africa in the postwar decades appeared as the climax of a global paradigm shift that had begun with the American Revolution and that was to come to a successful conclusion with the 1989 collapse of the Soviet Union’s informal empire in Eastern Europe, followed two years later by the disintegration of the USSR itself into its constituent national republics. The excesses and dangers of nationalism, in turn, would be contained and offset by the general effects of economic and cultural globalization and by the development of supra-national structures, norms, and relationships such as those institutionalized in the European Union. Any hopes we might have had of a grand historical dialectic between the universal and the particular achieving final resolution in a post-Cold War, liberal-internationalist synthesis have since been thoroughly dashed. Today we live in an era in which Russia is challenging post-1991 borders in Europe, China is laying claim to the South China Sea while the United States “pivots” to Asia, jihadists are aspiring to replace the nation-state with a caliphate in the Islamic world, and the great and middle-ranking powers of the Euro-Atlantic zone are drawn into a seemingly never-ending series of military interventions in areas of the world where what once were considered nation-states have partly or utterly collapsed—in some cases under the impact of those very military interventions.

BOWMAN, III* Introduction: Why British Impeachments Matter Impeachment is a British invention, employed by Parliament beginning in 1376 to resist the general tendency of the monarchy to absolutism and to counter particularly obnoxious royal policies by removing the ministers who implemented them. The invention crossed the Atlantic with the British colonists who would one day rebel against their mother country and create an independent United States of America. During the Constitutional Convention of 1787, the delegates decided that presidents and other federal officers could be impeached, but they recoiled from the severe and occasionally fatal punishments imposed by Parliament, and they wrestled over what conduct should be impeachable.

  • Pius Ix and the Change in Papal Authority in the Nineteenth Century
    ABSTRACT ONE MAN’S STRUGGLE: PIUS IX AND THE CHANGE IN PAPAL AUTHORITY IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY Andrew Paul Dinovo This thesis examines papal authority in the nineteenth century in three sections. The first examines papal issues within the world at large, specifically those that focus on the role of the Church within the political state. The second section concentrates on the authority of Pius IX on the Italian peninsula in the mid-nineteenth century. The third and final section of the thesis focuses on the inevitable loss of the Papal States within the context of the Vatican Council of 1869-1870. Select papal encyclicals from 1859 to 1871 and the official documents of the Vatican Council of 1869-1870 are examined in light of their relevance to the change in the nature of papal authority. Supplementing these changes is a variety of seminal secondary sources from noted papal scholars. Ultimately, this thesis reveals that this change in papal authority became a point of contention within the Church in the twentieth century.
