Geschichtsphilosophie steht in der Geschichtswissenschaft in einem schlechten Ruf. Teleologische Denkfiguren und spekulative Fortschrittsannahmen haben sich als obsolet erwiesen. Mit der berechtigten Kritik wurden jedoch zugleich die Fragestellungen verdrängt, auf welche die spekulative Geschichtsphilosophie Antworten zu geben versuchte. Heinz Dieter Kittsteiner (1942-2008) beabsichtigte die Kluft zwischen der Geschichtswissenschaft und der Geschichtsphilosophie durch eine von geschichtsphilosophischen Fragestellungen angeleitete Kulturgeschichte zu überbrücken. Sein Projekt war eine Deutsche Geschichte in den Stufen der Moderne, in der er der Angst vor der als unverfügbar empfundenen Geschichte nachging. Die Beiträge des Bandes nehmen Kittsteiners Anregungen auf, rekonstruieren seine Denkwege und diskutieren Perspektiven der Kulturgeschichte neu.

Questions of truth, ethics, state power, and propaganda, of how to render account of catastrophes and reconcile oneself with one's past are not only crucial to our time, they were also central to the German historian Friedrich Meinecke (1862-1954). Probably no generation of historians before Meinecke had lived through more unsettling transformations, during which these questions were most pressing. Reinbert Krol's analysis of Meinecke's intellectual development does not only give us insight into his philosophy of history - which turns out to be more conciliatory than previously assumed - it can also be a source of inspiration for scholars of history today.

This work represents the first truly comprehensive and non-biased history of psychohistory, a vanguard branch of historical scholarship that studies the psychological dimension of the past using principles of psychoanalysis and psychology as its theoretical ground. Tomasz Pawelec is an experienced methodologist and historiographer who systematically examines, reconstructs, and evaluates the major theoretical and methodological guiding assumptions shared by psychohistorians. In effect, he provides the reader with an intriguing portrait of a peculiar research paradigm – and a specific intellectual “monad” – that developed within the twentieth-century American history. At the empirical foundation of his work lies a broad collection of psychohistorical publications.

Der Rassenanthropologe Henning von Rittersdorf ist eine fiktive Gestalt. Aber es hätte ihn geben können. Er ist der Idealtypus eines deutschen Wissenschaftlers, der durch drei politische Systeme hindurchmäandert ist, sich mühelos in das »Dritte Reich« eingefügt und kaum mühevoller wieder herausgefunden hat. 1969 legte er eine Dokumentensammlung als Beweis vor, dass er stets ein Wissenschaftler gewesen sei, der nur der »Sache« gedient habe, »missbraucht« durch die Nationalsozialisten. Doch durch Streichungen, Kommentare und Randbemerkungen verlor er die Deutungshoheit über sein Material und bestätigte ungewollt seine tiefgehende Verstrickung in den Nationalsozialismus. Thomas Etzemüller bietet eine lebendige, doku-fiktionale Innensicht aus dem Leben eines Rassenanthropologen. Und macht deutlich, wie romanhaft die zugrunde liegende Realität gewesen ist - gleichwohl sie fürchterliche, reale Effekte gezeitigt hat.

The majority of European early modern empires - the Castilian, French, Dutch, and English/British - developed practices of jurisdictional accumulation, distinguished by the three categories of extensions, transports, and transplants of authority. This book is concerned with various diplomatic and colonial agents which enabled the transports and transplants of sovereign authority. Through historical analyses of ambassadors and consuls in the Mediterranean based on primary and secondary material, and on the empires' Atlantic imperial expansions and conquests, the book makes a major analytical contribution to historical sociology. As an interdisciplinary exercise in conceptual innovation based on a Political Marxist framework and its concept of social property relations, the book goes beyond common binaries in both conventional and critical histories. The new concept of jurisdictional accumulation brings ambassadors, consuls, merchants, and lawyers out of the shadows of empire and onto the main stage of the construction of modern international relations and international law.
