During World War II, Nazi-fascist cultural organizations brought writers, filmmakers, and composers together at international conferences where intellectuals celebrated a nationalist and anti-Semitic vision of European culture and pursued the continent-wide reform of the legal and economic bases of European culture. The Nazi-Fascist New Order for European Culture charts the origins, successes, and collapse of the Axis's pan-European cultural institutions. It analyzes their core ideas, charts their internal rivalries, and reveals the complex dynamic of cooperation and competition between the Germans and the Italians that stood at the heart of the project.--

Cet ouvrage analyse les rapports entre identité, médias et liens sociaux au Maghreb. Quels modes ou modèles de comportements – individuels ou collectifs – peuvent-être adoptés ? Qui peut les revendiquer ? Quels rôles jouent la nation et la religion dans l’adoption de telle ou telle pratique ? Comment parler de la tradition aujourd’hui… ? Ces questions traversent les présentes contributions, issues d’un travail collectif mené à l’Institut de recherche sur le Maghreb contemporain entre 1993 et 1996. Les thèmes traités – citons la presse dans le Tanger cosmopolite du début du siècle, la reconfiguration des liens familiaux par la télévision tunisienne au cours du ramadan, ou encore l’analyse des vêtements « islamiques » – offrent des réponses détaillées et nuancées à ces interrogations. Les lieux, par ailleurs, marquent leur importance, autant par leur histoire spécifique que comme vecteurs de sociabilité. Les liens qui s’y développent, à l’instar des vies qui s’y expriment, inscrivent ainsi des itinéraires où alternent mouvements et haltes. Qui sait mieux que les Maghrébins anciens d’Indochine la difficulté de situer leur mémoire ? Quelles trajectoires, imaginaires ou guidées, suivent le touriste ou le jeune écoutant du raï ? Si ces études sont résolument liées à l’espace social et géographique du Maghreb, elles rendent compte de l’imbrication complexe et mouvante de cet espace dans des « réseaux de référence » plus larges. Ces approches concrètes, menées dans des « lieux » variables, apportent une contribution aux débats actuels sur la globalisation et le rôle des médias.

Expanding the horizon of established accounts of Central European art under socialism, this book uncovers the neglected history of artistic engagement with the natural environment in the Eastern Bloc. The turbulent legacy of 1968, which saw the confluence of political upheaval, spread of counterculture, rise of ecological consciousness, and emergence of global conceptual art, provides the setting for Maja Fowkes’s innovative reassessment of the environmental practice of the Central European neo-avant-garde. Focussing on artists and artist groups whose ecological dimension has rarely been considered, including the Pécs Workshop from Hungary, OHO in Slovenia, TOK in Croatia, Rudolf Sikora in Slovakia, and the Czech artist Petr Štembera, 'The Green Bloc: Neo-avant-garde Art and Ecology under Socialism' brings to light an array of distinctive approaches to nature, from attempts to raise environmental awareness among socialist citizens to the exploration of non-anthropocentric positions and the quest for cosmological existence in the midst of red ideology. Embedding artistic production in social, political, and environmental histories of the region, this book reveals the Central European artists’ sophisticated relationship to nature, at the precise moment when ecological crisis was first apprehended on a planetary scale.

This is the first comprehensive study about the non-mathematical writings and activities of the Russian algebraic geometer and number theorist Igor Shafarevich (b. 1923). In the 1970s Shafarevich was a prominent member of the dissidents’ human rights movement and a noted author of clandestine anti-communist literature in the Soviet Union. Shafarevich’s public image suffered a terrible blow around 1989 when he was decried as a dangerous ideologue of anti-Semitism. The scandal culminated when the President of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States suggested that Shafarevich, an honorary member, resign. While it became clear already in the early 1990s that Shafarevich had not discriminated against his Jewish students, as was claimed, the present study also shows that the allegations about anti-Semitism in Shafarevich’s texts are unfounded.
