Beschreibung
This collection of essays focuses on forgotten figures, events and
policies of twentieth century Europe and America. At first glance, the
topics seem disparate, covering a range of time periods and regions, from
pre-WWI Germany to post-WWII America, yet each raises similar questions
about inter-relationships between states, the ways in which the struggles
of the age shaped the lives of individuals and the roles individuals
played in key historical events. The collection establishes new vantage
points from which to survey the period and opens up previously unexplored
lines of investigation.
Jarosaw Suchoples is an assistant professor at the Institute of History and
