  • Zweigliedrige Personennamen der Germanenby Gottfried Schramm

    De Gruyter 2013; US$ 182.00

    In his widely read earlier dissertation, ?Treasury of names and poetic language,? the author explained that the structural form of the two-part Germanic first name dates back to a distant Indo-German past. Thus, the Germanic examples (of the type ?Wolfram,? which means ?wolf raven?) emerge from composed designations of men in epic poetry, that is,... more...

    Taylor and Francis 2013; US$ 42.95

    The image of the Third Reich as a monolithic state presiding over the brainwashed, fanatical masses, retains a tenacious grip on the general public's imagination. However, a growing body of research on the social history of the Nazi years has revealed the variety and complexity of the relationships between the Nazi regime and the German people. This... more...

    The Emancipation of Writing is the first study of writing in its connection to bureaucracy, citizenship, and the state in Germany.

  • Rebuilding Germanyby James C. Van Hook

    Cambridge University Press 2004; US$ 35.00

    Rebuilding Germany examines the 1948 West German economic reforms that dismantled the Nazi command economy and ushered in the fabled 'economic miracle'. Known as the social market economy, these economic policies attempted to demonstrate that a free market could better achieve essential social ends than socialism itself. more...

  • Knowledge Power and Disciplineby Pier Carlo Bontempelli; Gabriele Poole

    University of Minnesota Press 2003; US$ 75.00

    German Studies has confronted many crises, and yet it has managed to maintain its disciplinary system. Using the works of Michel Foucault and Pierre Bourdieu, Bontempelli investigates the principles of German Studies and critically reconstructs its history. Mindful of choice and domination operating at every turn, his book exposes the repressed social... more...

  • Origins of the European Security Systemby Andreas Wenger; Vojtech Mastny; Christian Nuenlist
