  • Bibliography
    BIBLIOGRAPHY GENERAL ISSUES RELIGIONS AND PHILOSOPHY FIORANI, ELEONORA. Friedrich Engels e il materialismo dialettico. Feltrinelli Editore, Milano 1971. 272 pp. L. 3000. Engels's Anti-Diihring, Feuerbach and the End of Classical German Philosophy and Dialectics of Nature are the writings most elaborated upon by the author, who, refuting efforts to draw a line between Marx and Engels as regards their later followers, stresses Engels's contribution to Marxism. She argues that his contribution to dialectical materialism is still important for a clarification of topical issues, and makes some comments on the vicissitudes of diamat in the USSR. A chronology of Engels's life and an annotated bibliography are appended. HARTMANN, KLAUS. Die Marxsche Theorie. Eine philosophische Unter- suchung zu den Hauptschriften. Walter de Gruyter & Co, Berlin 1970. xii, 593 pp. DM 78.00. The author of this learned study undertakes a re-appraisal of Marx's theory from a purely philosophical angle. He criticizes Popper's theses (and lack of understanding of Hegelianism), but his own refutation of Marxian views brings him closer to Popper's. It is denied that a dialectical process going on in reality could justifiably be made to fit in the chain of historical necessity. Besides Marx's more philosophical writings all his major works, especially Capital, come up for discussion. Interesting are the comments on Marxist and non-Marxist evaluations of our time (Sartre, Habermas etc.). WILDERMUTH, ARMIN. Marx und die Verwirklichung der Philosophic. Martinus Nijhoff, Den Haag 1970. xii, 852 pp. (in 2 vols.) Hfl. 90.00. "The synthetic unity [of inter-subjective and object-related communications] constitutes the indissoluble process of the 'social movement', the total process of human self-reproduction.

  • The Actuality of Critical Theory in the Netherlands, 1931-1994 By
    The Actuality of Critical Theory in the Netherlands, 1931-1994 by Nicolaas Peter Barr Clingan A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Martin E. Jay, Chair Professor John F. Connelly Professor Jeroen Dewulf Professor David W. Bates Spring 2012 Abstract The Actuality of Critical Theory in the Netherlands, 1931-1994 by Nicolaas Peter Barr Clingan Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Martin E. Jay, Chair This dissertation reconstructs the intellectual and political reception of Critical Theory, as first developed in Germany by the “Frankfurt School” at the Institute of Social Research and subsequently reformulated by Jürgen Habermas, in the Netherlands from the mid to late twentieth century. Although some studies have acknowledged the role played by Critical Theory in reshaping particular academic disciplines in the Netherlands, while others have mentioned the popularity of figures such as Herbert Marcuse during the upheavals of the 1960s, this study shows how Critical Theory was appropriated more widely to challenge the technocratic directions taken by the project of vernieuwing (renewal or modernization) after World War II. During the sweeping transformations of Dutch society in the postwar period, the demands for greater democratization—of the universities, of the political parties under the system of “pillarization,” and of

  • Geschiedschrijving Als Opdracht
    Geschiedschrijving als opdracht Abel Herzberg, Jacques Presser en Loe de Jong over de jodenvervolging Conny Kristel bron Conny Kristel, Geschiedschrijving als opdracht. Abel Herzberg, Jacques Presser en Loe de Jong over de jodenvervolging. Meulenhoff, Amsterdam 1998 Zie voor verantwoording: http://www.dbnl.org/tekst/kris004gesc01_01/colofon.htm © 2007 dbnl / Conny Kristel 7 Woord vooraf Wie een boek schrijft over de jodenvervolging heeft veel uit te leggen. Wanneer ik de afgelopen jaren vertelde waar ik mee bezig was, vroeg menigeen verbaasd en nieuwsgierig hoe ik tot dit onderwerp gekomen was. Vervolgens voelden mensen die de oorlog min of meer bewust hebben meegemaakt zich vrijwel altijd geroepen mij deelgenoot te maken van hun herinneringen aan de oorlogsjaren. Leeftijdgenoten - ik werd geboren in 1955 - reageerden opvallend vaak ongeduldig of zelfs geprikkeld. Sommigen van hen legden me uit dat ook niet-joden geleden hebben onder de oorlog. Anderen meenden dat er inmiddels wel genoeg over het lot van de joden was geschreven. Nu krijgt elke contemporain historicus te maken met uitgesproken meningen en opvattingen van tijdgenoten. Maar het lijkt me duidelijk dat het onderwerp van dit boek uitzonderlijke reacties teweegbrengt. Wat Bram de Swaan in 1965 opmerkte over de respons op Pressers Ondergang, geldt kennelijk nog steeds en ook voor mijn boek: de mensen zitten er erg mee. Dit verklaart misschien dat mij behalve naar mijn motivatie verder nauwelijks iets werd gevraagd. Mijn belangstelling voor de nasleep van de jodenvervolging dateert uit mijn studietijd. In 1987 schreef ik een doctoraalscriptie over de repatriëring van Nederlandse overlevenden uit de Duitse concentratiekampen. Nadien ben ik me blijven verdiepen in de gevolgen van de perfect georganiseerde massamoord, vooral op het leven en denken van de overlevenden.

  • Anne Frank, the Young Diarist from Amsterdam, May Be
    “Poor devils” of the Camps Dutch Jews in Theresienstadt, 1943–19451 Anna Hájková nne Frank, the young diarist from Amsterdam, may be the best-known victim of the Holocaust.2 Her diary breaks off with the capture of the Jews hiding at 263 Prinsengracht Street, and, with the termination of the diary, Anne Frank Ais as good as dead. Anne’s incarceration in Auschwitz-Birkenau and later in Bergen-Belsen, where she died seven months after her arrest, are often presented as a footnote to her story.3 This treatment of Anne Frank’s last seven months is symptomatic of the story of the Dutch Jews once they were deported outside of the Netherlands; this topic has been widely neglected in large parts of the historiography of the Holocaust of Dutch Jewry.4 Many scholars of the 1 This article was a long time in the making, and I am extremely grateful to many colleagues and friends for their help, advice, support, and reading and commenting along the way.

Robert Jan van Pelt, trans. Michiel Horn and John Irons ((Evanston, IL: Northwestern University Press, 2012). Three years ago, when Robert Jan van Pelt, an architectural and Holocaust historian at the University of Waterloo, asked me whether I would translate the diary of David Koker, I had never heard of David or his diary, or so I told him. I subsequently found out that I was wrong. Both had come within my ken four decades earlier, but I had taken no notice. In the early 1970s I read the University of Amsterdam historian Jacob (Jacques) Presser’s two-volume work Ondergang (1965), the history of the persecution and destruction of the Jews of the Netherlands 2 History of Intellectual Culture, 2012/13 during the years of German occupation. (Presser’s work was translated into English by Arnold Pomerans and appeared in an abridged version as Ashes in the Wind in the United Kingdom in 1968, and as The Destruction of the Dutch Jews in the United States in 1969.) Presser, who in the late 1930s had taught David at the Vossiusgymnasium, an elite secondary school in Amsterdam, mentions his former pupil and the diary more than once. Later I must have come across David’s name in Louis de Jong’s multi-volume history of the Netherlands during the war (Het koninkrijk der Nederlanden in de tweede wereldoorlog, 1969ff.), which I began to read in 1971.
