Doing Anthropology In Wartime And War Zones

by Reinhard Johler, Doing Anthropology In Wartime And War Zones Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download Doing Anthropology In Wartime And War Zones books, World War I marks a well-known turning point in anthropology, and this volume is the first to examine the variety of forms it took in Europe. Distinct national traditions emerged and institutes were founded, partly due to collaborations with the military. Researchers in the cultural sciences used war zones to gain access to »informants«: prisoner-of-war and refugee camps, occupied territories, even the front lines. Anthropologists tailored their inquiries to aid the war effort, contributed to interpretations of the war as a »struggle« between »races«, and assessed the »warlike« nature of the Balkan region, whose crises were key to the outbreak of the Great War.

Anthropology At War

by Andrew D. Evans, Anthropology At War Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download Anthropology At War books, Between 1914 and 1918, German anthropologists conducted their work in the midst of full-scale war. The discipline was relatively new in German academia when World War I broke out, and, as Andrew D. Evans reveals in this illuminating book, its development was profoundly altered by the conflict. As the war shaped the institutional, ideological, and physical environment for anthropological work, the discipline turned its back on its liberal roots and became a nationalist endeavor primarily concerned with scientific studies of race. Combining intellectual and cultural history with the history of science, Anthropology at War examines both the origins and consequences of this shift. Evans locates its roots in the decision to allow scientists access to prisoner-of-war camps, which prompted them to focus their research on racial studies of the captives. Caught up in wartime nationalism, a new generation of anthropologists began to portray the country’s political enemies as racially different. After the war ended, the importance placed on racial conceptions and categories persisted, paving the way for the politicization of scientific inquiry in the years of the ascendancy of National Socialism.

by Jochen Böhler, Legacies Of Violence Eastern Europe S First World War Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download Legacies Of Violence Eastern Europe S First World War books, The First World War began in the Balkans, and it was fought as fiercely in the East as it was in the West. Fighting persisted in the East for almost a decade, radically transforming the political and social order of the entire continent. The specifics of the Eastern war such as mass deportations, ethnic cleansing, and the radicalization of military, paramilitary and revolutionary violence have only recently become the focus of historical research. This volume situates the ‘Long First World War’ on the Eastern Front (1912–1923) in the hundred years from the mid-19th to the mid-20th century and explores the legacies of violence within this context.

Nasza Wojna Tom I Imperia 1912 1916

by Włodzimierz Borodziej, Nasza Wojna Tom I Imperia 1912 1916 Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download Nasza Wojna Tom I Imperia 1912 1916 books, Odkrywcza historia frontów wschodnich I wojny światowej. Chyba każdy słyszał o Sommie, Verdun czy Marnie, miejscach najważniejszych bitew frontu zachodniego I wojny światowej. Niewiele osób pamięta jednak o co najmniej równie ważnych miejscach na mapach frontu wschodniego – Gorlicach, Przasnyszu czy Przemyślu. Ta książka przywraca pamięć o tych jakże przecież istotnych dla naszych dziejów wydarzeniach. Nasza wojna. Imperia nie jest typową publikacją historyczną. Chociaż jej autorzy z wielką skrupulatnością przedstawiają dyplomatyczne przyczyny i okoliczności wybuchu I wojny światowej oraz dokładnie opisują towarzyszące jej działania militarne, to nie polityka międzynarodowa jest przedmiotem tej książki. O jej wyjątkowości stanowi fakt, że koncentruje się ona przede wszystkim na historiach ludzi, zarówno jednostek, jak i społeczeństw, i wpływie, jaki wywarły na nich wojenne doświadczenia. Dwaj historycy, Włodzimierz Borodziej i Maciej Górny, wykonali olbrzymią pracę, by w przystępny sposób przybliżyć czytelnikowi ten fragment dziejów. Książka zawiera liczne fragmenty listów i wspomnień uczestników działań na froncie wschodnim oraz cytaty z dzieł literackich z okresu wojny, które służą za ilustrację ówczesnego sposobu postrzegania rzeczywistości. Dzięki żywemu językowi i plastycznym opisom publikacja jest interesująca nie tylko dla specjalistów.
