Going Greek offers an unprecedented look at the relationship between American Jewish students and fraternity life during its heyday in the first half of the twentieth century. More than secret social clubs, fraternities and sororities profoundly shaped the lives of members long after they left college⁰́₄often dictating choices in marriage as well as business alliances. Widely viewed as a key to success, membership in these self-governing, sectarian organizations was desirable but not easily accessible, especially to non-Protestants and nonwhites. In Going Greek Marianne Sanua examines the founding of Jewish fraternities in light of such topics as antisemitism, the unique challenges faced by Jewish students on campuses across the United States, responses to World War II, and questions pertaining to assimilation and/or identity reinforcement.

Die Armee ist ein zentraler Machtfaktor im Staat, militärische Informationen sind grundsätzlich gesetzlich geschützt. Das Militär bildet zudem ein soziales System mit eigenen Normen, Ritualen und Symbolen. Die hierarchische Struktur und das starke Berufsethos prägen das Militär bis heute. Innerhalb dieses Rahmens bildeten sich immer wieder geheime Netzwerke von Militärangehörigen mit abweichenden Verhaltenskodizes. Sie erregten häufig den Verdacht, gegen das eigene Militärsystem oder den Staat gerichtet zu sein. Die Autorinnen und Autoren des Bandes erkunden die Wechselwirkungen zwischen Geheimbundorganisationen, Geheimnisträgern, Verschwörern und dem Militär - von Freimaurern und Illuminaten bis zum Stauffenberg-Kreis.
