Abstract

This is the first global history of the secret diplomatic and police campaign that was waged against anarchist terrorism from 1878 to the 1920s. Anarchist terrorism was at that time the dominant form of terrorism and for many continued to be synonymous with terrorism as late as the 1930s. Ranging from Europe and the Americas to the Middle East and Asia, Richard Bach Jensen explores how anarchist terrorism emerged as a global phenomenon during the first great era of economic and social globalization at the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries and reveals why some nations were so much more successful in combating this new threat than others. He shows how the challenge of dealing with this new form of terrorism led to the fundamental modernization of policing in many countries and also discusses its impact on criminology and international law.

Abstract

Grote verwachtingen, het vervolg op het immens succesvolle In Europa van 2004, verscheen eind 2019. Waar In Europa inging op de in zoveel opzichten gruwelijke 20ste eeuw getekend door twee wereldoorlogen, gaat Grote verwachtingen over de eerste twee decennia van de eenentwintigste eeuw. Het neemt de draad op waar In Europa eindigde, in 1999. Mak schetst de sfeer en stemming tijdens de eeuwwisseling, het optimisme dat toen hoogtij vierde maar gaandeweg verdween, de gevoelens rond de invoering van de euro, de gevolgen van de aanslag op de Twin Towers, de toestand in Oost-Europa en Rusland, de bankencrisis, de Verenigde Staten, Noord- versus Zuid-Europa, de vluchtelingen. Eind 2020 werd hieraan een epiloog toegevoegd, over de totaal onverwachte coronacrisis. https://www.atlascontact.nl/boek/grote-verwachtingen-2e-herziene-editie/

Abstract

Hjalmar Horace Greeley Schacht was a genius, an eccentric, and an enigma. Single-handedly halting Germany's runaway inflation and freeing the country from the crippling reparation debts imposed by the Treaty of Versailles, he gained worldwide fame as the economic guru of Nazi Germany. Yet while he financed Hitler's military regime, he held most Nazis in contempt and frequently clashed with its hierarchy -- and Hitler himself -- over anti-Jewish laws and war spending. Before the war was over, Schacht had been imprisoned in Dachau; later, he was one of only three defendants to be acquitted at the Nuremberg trials. John Weitz's riveting biography illuminates this complex figure -- a skilled manipulator of money, men and governments -- and the chilling, brutal, and grimly fascinating history of 20th-century Germany.
