  • Jean Jaurès – an Apostle of Peace in Pre-War Europe, 1905-1914
    Assoc. Prof. Dr. Rossitza Tasheva, Sofia University Jean Jaurès – An Apostle of Peace in Pre-War Europe, 1905-1914 The decade preceding the outbreak of the Great War in 1914 was marked not only by an intensification of armaments and confrontations of the world powers in their quest to acquire new resources, markets and influence, but also by an increasingly growing international peace movement, supported by hundreds of thousands of people. They came from different social groups, but what united them all was their common dream of harmony and peace in society, their belief that progress should not be based on violence and wars as means of resolving the emerging conflicts ought to be abolished. The Hague Conventions for the pacific settlement of international disputes of 1899 and 1907 gave some hope for the realization of their vision of a peaceful world, but in fact these conventions were mainly intended to diminish the evils of militarized conflicts and not to prevent their outbreak or escalation. In the beginning of the twentieth century, one French philosopher, historian and politician, Jean Jaurès, vigorously joined in the search for means to prevent wars among nations. To all who were disappointed with the failure of the ongoing initiatives, he offered a new, different perspective: the organization of a mass movement for peace, which would involve not only the governments but also the nations, in which the international solidarity of working men and women would oppose the constant threat of war. Jaurès demonstrated an extraordinary and unique activity in the struggle which he undertook against colonialism and war.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating' adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding o f the dissertation.

  • The Kpd and the Nsdap: a Sttjdy of the Relationship Between Political Extremes in Weimar Germany, 1923-1933 by Davis William
    THE KPD AND THE NSDAP: A STTJDY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN POLITICAL EXTREMES IN WEIMAR GERMANY, 1923-1933 BY DAVIS WILLIAM DAYCOCK A thesis submitted for the degree of Ph.D. The London School of Economics and Political Science, University of London 1980 1 ABSTRACT The German Communist Party's response to the rise of the Nazis was conditioned by its complicated political environment which included the influence of Soviet foreign policy requirements, the party's Marxist-Leninist outlook, its organizational structure and the democratic society of Weimar. Relying on the Communist press and theoretical journals, documentary collections drawn from several German archives, as well as interview material, and Nazi, Communist opposition and Social Democratic sources, this study traces the development of the KPD's tactical orientation towards the Nazis for the period 1923-1933. In so doing it complements the existing literature both by its extension of the chronological scope of enquiry and by its attention to the tactical requirements of the relationship as viewed from the perspective of the KPD. It concludes that for the whole of the period, KPD tactics were ambiguous and reflected the tensions between the various competing factors which shaped the party's policies. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE abbreviations 4 INTRODUCTION 7 CHAPTER I THE CONSTRAINTS ON CONFLICT 24 CHAPTER II 1923: THE FORMATIVE YEAR 67 CHAPTER III VARIATIONS ON THE SCHLAGETER THEME: THE CONTINUITIES IN COMMUNIST POLICY 1924-1928 124 CHAPTER IV COMMUNIST TACTICS AND THE NAZI ADVANCE, 1928-1932: THE RESPONSE TO NEW THREATS 166 CHAPTER V COMMUNIST TACTICS, 1928-1932: THE RESPONSE TO NEW OPPORTUNITIES 223 CHAPTER VI FLUCTUATIONS IN COMMUNIST TACTICS DURING 1932: DOUBTS IN THE ELEVENTH HOUR 273 CONCLUSIONS 307 APPENDIX I VOTING ALIGNMENTS IN THE REICHSTAG 1924-1932 333 APPENDIX II INTERVIEWS 335 BIBLIOGRAPHY 341 4 ABBREVIATIONS 1.

  • The War Imagined: 1890–1914
    CHAPTER ONE The War Imagined: 1890–1914 GERD KRUMEICH (translated by Mark Jones) The years between 1900 and the outbreak of World War I are generally described as the “prewar” period. However, there is no consensus about what the term “prewar” really means or about the period it covers. Some scholars have begun with the Franco- Prussian war of 1870–1, but it is more common to see the years of the “scramble for Africa” and the “imperialist delirium” as the true prewar period.1 Even here, the precise starting point depends on national perspectives. For Germany, it might be taken as Kaiser Wilhelm’s policy of expansion on to the world stage (Weltpolitik) in the later 1890s, or the subsequent naval rivalry with Britain. For the French, the military alliance with Russia in 1893, or the First and Second Moroccan Crises of 1905 and 1911, make equally credible starting points. For Russia it is perhaps the recovery from the catastrophe of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904–5 and the 1905 revolution. I propose to divide the prewar period into a longer phase when enmities were cre- ated and a more immediate phase of acute tensions leading to the outbreak of hosti- lities. The first phase was defined by the gradual increase in international antagonism and the polarization of the European alliance system into two antagonistic blocks. The second phase was marked by an increasingly nervous disposition toward what was seen as the inevitability – and for some the desirability – of a war that would reshape the course of world development.

  • Writing for Dictatorship, Refashioning for Democracy: German Women Journalists in the Nazi and Post-War Press
    Writing for Dictatorship, Refashioning for Democracy: German Women Journalists in the Nazi and Post-war Press by Deborah Barton A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Deborah Barton 2015 Writing for Dictatorship, Refashioning for Democracy: German Women Journalists in the Nazi and Post-war Press Deborah Barton Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2015 Abstract This dissertation investigates how women journalists acted as professional functionaries in support of the National Socialist dictatorship, and later, a democratic West Germany. As a project that examines the intersections between the press, politics and gender, this study makes three contributions to the study of German history. The first is for the understanding the expansiveness and malleability of what constituted politics in the Third Reich and the nature of consensus between the regime and the population. Nazi gender ideology proclaimed that women belonged only in the private sphere. Correspondingly, Nazi press authorities dictated that women write only about topics pertaining to this area. The regime labeled such news apolitical. However, soft news from a cheerful perspective was an indispensible part of Nazi media policy: it provided the façade of normalcy and morale building under Hitler. In return for their support, the state offered women journalists a status not open to most women. The study of women journalists further unravels the draw of National Socialism for those Germans the regime deemed politically, socially and racially acceptable: increased possibilities and social prestige. The second contribution relates to the study of women in the professions, which has often been overlooked.

  • Human Capital« Really Mean?
    798 UTOPIE kreativ, H. 201/202 (Juli/August 2007) – Summaries EKKEHART KRIPPENDORF Europe’s Renaissance – But in What Spirit? Recalling the ancient Greek myth of Europe’s genesis and defining it as one of the prerequisites for her cultures, the author discusses current problems in Europe’s development. He argues that protests against the militarization of the European Union, by a few activists encounter logically their limits in af- fectivity in, what he refers to as »the people’s real-politik attuned ears«. He describes the EU, founded by a class of bureaucratic careerists, as a con- struction lacking soul and ethical substance, and pleads for a renaissance in the spirit of the original tale of a culture of peace. RICHARD SAAGE Renaissance of Utopia? Reviewing the book »Renaissance der Utopie« (Renaissance of Utopia) ed. by Rudolf Maresch and Florian Rötzer (2004) the author describes a renais- sance of utopia that leaves the earlier utopian schemes far behind that had focused on a vision of communist society. Today, he says, there are no more »great stories« only »petty ones« concentrating on the optimization of the subjective state using the most advanced technology. But this, is certainly not the end – Morus’ »classical line« will rebound: self-critically and renewed. INGRID LOHMANN What Does »Human Capital« Really Mean? The overwhelming predominance of the term »human capital« – the author says – marks a new quality in the globalized capitalist system, transforming education into a sector of the market-orientated system, abiding only by criteria of business management. The widely discussed PISA tests are not, as many were hoping, a chance to overcome concrete lacks in the educa- tional system, but rather part of the aggressive strategy of commercial edu- cational services operating worldwide to streamline the entire educational system to fit into their strategies and heighten their profits.
