Its size does not pay full justice to the 133 books, to the 192 doctoral theses, and to the hundreds of articles published in the best national and international journals in the past fifteen months (October 2009‒December 2010). The EUI is the smallest university in Europe but it has the largest doctoral and postdoctoral programme in the social sciences and humanities. Our doctoral and postdoctoral researchers, many of the latter part of the Max Weber Programme, and the professorial staff play a crucial role in European and international networks, research groups and journals. Moreover, specialist research on highly relevant topics in current EU affairs, such as Migration, Regulation and Global Governance, is carried out at the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies. The publications listed in this directory testify to the work and achievements of our academic community. It is not an exercise in self-congratulation, but one additional way to make our publications better known in academic and non-academic milieus. Now more than ever we have no alternative but to improve even further on our past results. Josep Borrell Fontelles INTRODUCTION This Directory has been prepared by the EUI Publications Unit and Library staff and lists the academic publications of the EUI and its members between October 2009 and Dicember 2010. The two first editions of the Directory covered the four years up to 30 September 2009 (see www.eui.eu/AcademicPublications).

Books All Departments European University Institute BOOKS AKTAR Ayhan, KIZILYUREK Niyazi and ÖZKIRIMLI Umut (eds) Nationalism in the Troubled Triangle: Cyprus, Greece and Turkey Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan, 2010 This is the first systematic study of nationalism in Cyprus, Greece and Turkey to date in the English language. Bringing scholars from Greece, Turkey and both sides of the dead zone in Cyprus (and beyond) together, the book provides a comparative account of nation-building processes and nationalist politics in all three countries and four cases as well as more specific, thematic comparisons of political leaderships, institutions and foreign policies in what obstinately remains a playground of competing nationalisms. It also engages critically with official myths and narratives in Cyprus, Greece and Turkey and questions traditional nationalist discourses. European University Institute - 9 BOOKS ALAVERAS Georgios and PRATT Nicola (eds) Women and War in the Middle East: Transnational Perspectives London, Zed Books, 2009 Product of workshop No. 12 at the 8th MRM 2007 Women and War in the Middle East provides a critical examination of the relationship between gender and transnationalism in the context of war, peace-building and post-conflict reconstruction in the Middle East. Critically examining the ways in which the actions of various local and transnational groups—including women’ s movements, diaspora communities, national governments, non- governmental actors and multilateral bodies—interact to both intentionally and inadvertently shape the experiences of women in conflict situations, and determine the possibilities for women’ s participation in peace-building and (post)-conflict reconstruction, as well as the longer- term prospects for peace and security. The volume pays particular attention to the ways in which gender roles, relations and identities are constructed, negotiated and employed within transnational social and political fields in the conflict and post-conflict situations, and their particular consequences for women. Contributions focus on the two countries with the longest experiences of war and conflict in the Middle East, and which have been subject to the most prominent international interventions of recent years—that is, Iraq and the Occupied Palestinian Territories. Based entirely on original empirical research. Women and War in the Middle East brings together some of the foremost scholars in the areas of feminist international relations, feminist international political economy, anthropology, sociology, history and Middle East studies. 10 - European University Institute ALBRECHT Holger (ed.) Contentious Politics in the Middle East: Political Opposition under Authoritarianism Gainesville, University Press of Florida, 2010, Governance and International Relations in the Middle East Series Product of workshop No. 5 at the 8th MRM 2007 Scholarship examining the governments in the Middle East and North Africa rarely focuses on opposition movements, since those countries tend to be ruled by a centralized, often authoritarian government. However, even in an oppressive state, there are civil society and oppositional forces at work. The contributors to Contentious Politics in the Middle East reveal how such forces emerge and are manifested in nondemocratic states across the region. In most cases, the essays offer a comparative perspective, highlighting similarities across political borders. Providing historical context for current events, they examine the sociopolitical situations in Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain, Iraq, Morocco, Tunisia, Lebanon, and Algeria and analyze the role of Islam in Arab states’ governments and in the opposition movements to them. They also demonstrate that not all opposition forces propose the overthrow of authority and point out the various forms opposition takes in societies that leave little room for political activism. The contributors to the volume are drawn from countries across three continents and bring backgrounds in political science, conflict resolution, and history. Challenging the assertion that state-society relations are limited to coercive top-down arrangements in authoritarian regimes, the book will inspire debate on the topic of contentious political participation within the region as well as in similar settings throughout the world. European University Institute - 11 BOOKS ALLEN Franklin and YAGO Glenn Financing the Future: Market-Based Innovations for Growth Upper Saddle River, Wharton School Publishing, 2010, Series on Financial Innovations Explains how and why financial innovation drives economic growth and presents specific solutions to our most pressing economic challenges.

They outline the background and history of financial innovation, showing how new

  • Sites of Memory of Atlantic Slavery in European Towns with an Excursus on the Caribbean Ulrike Schmieder1
    Cuadernos Inter.c.a.mbio sobre Centroamérica y el Caribe Vol. 15, No. 1, abril-setiembre, 2018, ISSN: 1659-0139 Sites of Memory of Atlantic Slavery in European Towns with an Excursus on the Caribbean Ulrike Schmieder1 Abstract Recepción: 7 de agosto de 2017/ Aceptación: 4 de diciembre de 2017 For a long time, the impact of Atlantic slavery on European societies was discussed in academic circles, but it was no part of national, regional and local histories. In the last three decades this has changed, at different rhythms in the former metropolises. The 150th anniversary of the abolition of slavery in France (1998) and the 200th anniversary of the prohibition of the slave trade in Great Britain (2007) opened the debates to the broader public. Museums and memorials were established, but they coexist with monu- ments to slave traders as benefactors of their town. In Spain and Portugal the process to include the remembrance of slavery in local and national history is developing more slowly, as the impact of slave trade on Spanish and Portuguese urbanization and in- dustrialization is little known, and the legacies of recent fascist dictatorships are not yet overcome. This article focuses on sites of commemoration and silent traces of slavery. Keywords Memory; slave trade; slavery; European port towns; Caribbean Resumen Durante mucho tiempo, la influencia de la esclavitud atlántica sobre sociedades euro- peas fue debatida en círculos académicos, pero no fue parte de historias nacionales, regionales y locales. En las últimas tres décadas esto ha cambiado a diferentes ritmos en las antiguas metrópolis. El 150 aniversario de la abolición de la esclavitud en Francia (1998) y el bicentenario de la prohibición del tráfico de esclavizados en Gran Bretaña (2007) abrieron los debates a un público más amplio.
