The Lure of the South
Health, the Victorians and the Continent
Richard Aspin, Wellcome Collection, UK
Looks at the experience of British health seekers in the explosion of continental touring that occurred after the opening of the Post-Napoleonic European continent to relatively easy access Examining why they went, where and how; who advised and guided them; how they lived (and sometimes died) when abroad; and their influence on the wider development of European tourism, Aspin explores the delusion of climatotherapy, a promise of a cure that somehow remained forever out of reach

Coal in Modern Britain
A Social and Cultural History from 1830 to the Second World War
Charles-François Mathis, Paris 1 PanthéonSorbonne University, France
This is the first book to examine the social and cultural significance of coal in modern British society An English-language translation of CharlesFrançois Mathis’s award-winning study, it gets to the heart of Britain’s evolving relationship with this controversial energy source How did the general public use and manage coal on a daily basis? Did they readily accept it, did they reject it, and how? What were the material and cultural features of a society so reliant on coal? Historians have long considered the political, technical, and economic structures of energy systems, but here the vital social and cultural contexts are crucially laid bare

Ninety Humanists and the Ethical Transition of Britain
The Open Conspiracy 1930-80
Callum G. Brown
This book argues that the period of social change in Britain between 1930 and 1980 was due to the work of just 90 high profile humanists. Using a wealth of archival materials, including correspondence between members of the group, Callum Brown identifies a new motivation behind moral changes of the time Brown goes beyond established narratives that attribute such changes to youth revolution and social movements, and instead focuses on a network of humanists who worked to realign the British state and alter its governance to their principles of humanitarianism, individual autonomy, and internationalism

Uprisings in Eighteenth-Century Britain
Mediation and the Transformation of Political Culture
Monika Barget, Maastricht University, The Netherlands
This study examines how the British Empire of the 18th century avoided revolution by integrating opposition agents as new spaces of power opened up Monika Barget convincingly argues that this process of constitutionalisation meant that groups from the aristocracy to the church, from the army to the people at large, were brought into the system in a way that negated the obvious, serious challenges that were posed to the Empire by the Glorious Revolution, the Jacobite Rebellion, the American Revolution, and Jacobin threats of the late-18th century Barget goes on to highlight the lasting political and legal repercussions of this process

Fascism in Europe and Beyond A History of the First Hundred Years
Paul Baxa, Ave Maria University, USA
This is an examination of fascism from its fin-desiècle origins to the the re-emergence of fascist ideas in recent times . Historiographical discussions, illustrations, biographical textboxes and maps are interwoven into the text, while a valuable collection of primary documents can be found at the end of the book to facilitate further study PaulBaxa’s underlying assertion that fascism is primarily a cultural movement – a political cult in fact – that relies on charismatic leaders who have been able to articulate and project the fantasies and desires of their followers provides a consistent position throughout, one that both enriches and enlivens the text itself and that offers a useful jumping-off point for classroom discussions

This is the first book-length exploration of the clothes worn in early modern Rome and provides novel insights into the city of Rome during one of its most fascinating periods It also challenges the notion – well-established in dress historical research on the early modern period – that one was supposed to dress solely according to one’s social station; as Camilla Annerfeldt explores in great depth, this notion does not always seem to have been applicable to early modern Rome because of its very constitution

This book provides an original perspective on biblical narrative and rhetoric in the evolution of history writing in León-Castile during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries It focuses on six Hispano-Latin chronicles, two of which make unusually overt and emphatic use of biblical texts Of particular importance is the part played by the influence of exegesis that became integral to scriptural and liturgical influence, both in and beyond monastic institutions Alun Williams examines the material as part of a comparative exploration of language and religious allusion, showing how the authors used these biblical-liturgical elements to convey historical context, purpose and interpretation .

A History of Hygiene in Modern France
The Threshold of Disgust
Steven Zdatny, University of Vermont, USA
A History of Hygiene in Modern France tells the story of an epochal change in the human condition that was part of what is often thought of as ‘modernization’ —a process that remade culture and society in France in the 19th and 20th centuries Hygiene, Steven Zdatny convincingly contends, was that change. He reflects on how the development of hygiene: changed the way people thought about and treated their bodies; put an end to age-old afflictions and brought comfort where discomfort had been the unavoidable companion of existence; and helped produce a tripling of life expectancy

This book exposes the evolution of right-wing extremism in Germany from 1989 to today It reveals how disparate groups such as skinhead neo-Nazis, New Right (Neue Rechte) intellectuals, and fringe political parties have merged over time to form a coherent extreme-right network that utilizes the destabilization of truth and historical memory as a tactic in its campaign of terror This far-right scene, Esther Elizabeth Adaire adeptly demonstrates, embodies what the historian Walter Laqueur once dubbed ‘Postmodern Terrorism’: a mixture of cell-based terror structures, reliance on Internet technologies for organizational purposes, and the sowing of epistemic chaos via informational warfare

Europe’s Welfare Traditions
Since 1500, Volume 2
1700-2000
Thomas McStay Adams, Independent Scholar, USA
This two-volume study traces the interwoven traditions of modern welfare states in Europe over five centuries, from Portugal, France, and Italy to Britain, Belgium, and Germany Volume 2 examines 18th-century bienfaisance which secularized a Christian humanist notion of beneficence, producing new and sharply contested assertions of social citizenship It goes on to consider how national struggles to establish comprehensive welfare states since the second half of the 19th century built on the power of the vote as politicians, pushed by activists and advised by experts, appealed to a growing class of industrial workers Lastly, it looks at how 20th-century welfare states addressed aspirations for social citizenship while the institutional framework for European economic cooperation came to fruition

Feminism, National Identity and European Integration in Modern Spain
Defining a Democracy, 1960-Present
Kathryn L. Mahaney, University of Helsinki, Finland
This book explores the evolution of Spanish feminism in the context of European feminisms and institutions from the 1960s to recent times . Beginning with Sección Femenina, the official Francoist women’s organization, Feminism, National Identity and European Integration in Modern Spain traces the interplay between Spanish women’s policy and international policymaking At points in the period, Spanish women’s policy at least appeared more progressive than what Western democracies offered Yet feminists found themselves marginalized in Spanish political decisionmaking, as Kathryn L Mahaney argues so successfully in this study Mahaney reveals that women ultimately influenced domestic policy not by acting within national networks but by leveraging European connections, particularly after Spain joined the European Economic Community (EEC) in 1986

Hindu, Muslim, and the Dynamics of South Asian Identity
Belonging and Conflict from the Past to the Present
Edited
by Peter Gottschalk, Wesleyan University, USA
An inherent tension between Hindus and Muslims represents a social fact that has defined South Asian history for a millennium. This volume brings together a wealth of contributions that demonstrate how ‘Hindu’ and ‘Muslim’ are, and always have been, more than markers of religion Rather, these terms represent contested identities, belongings, communities, ethnicities, histories, regions, neighbourhoods and politics, as well as diverse artistic, literary and music traditions Arguing that ‘religion’ does not adequately account for these terms, contributors recognise that despite this diversity, notions of ‘Hindu’ and ‘Muslim’ have acted as a shared orientation marker of identity and belonging

Lethal Elites
The Institutions and Professionals That Made the Holocaust Possible
Alex Alvarez & Richard R. Fernández
This eye-opening book highlights the role of elites in constructing systems of persecution and extermination during the Holocaust.
Leaders from many sectors of society, including industry, science, and religion came to support and enable the Nazi government, often due to the ways in which they were able to profit and benefit from the policies of persecution and genocide With both a social science and historical approach, Lethal Elites highlights and assesses the ways in which the influence, training, and expertise of the most powerful and best educated were used in service to the genocidal agenda of the National Socialist Regime
As the Great Depression ravaged the United States, economic turmoil at home and geopolitical conflict abroad left disillusioned US citizens especially open to the Soviet Union’s expressed ideals of equality and internationalism This book shows that press-orientated agitation and propaganda efforts, delivered through newspapers such as the The Daily Worker, played a key role in the political strategy of the Communist Party of the United States (CPUSA) as they rose to unprecedented cultural prominence and political influence.

The Black Panthers and the Soviets A Comparative History of Human Rights Movements
Meredith L. Roman, SUNY Brockport, USA
The contemporaneous movements for human rights that Soviet rights defenders and the Black Panthers waged during the 1960s are analysed in a comparative fashion here for the very first time. The book also examines the extra-legal measures that both the KGB and FBI employed to destroy them It compares Soviet activists’ exposure of the workings of the Soviet police state with the miniature, city-level surveillance police states that the Black Panthers exposed as operating across the United States and illuminates the legal tactics of counter-surveillance that Soviet rights defenders and the Black Panthers employed as a means of restraining acts of state-sanctioned violence
