Abstract

This title scrutinises the events of 1919 from below: the global underside of the Wilsonian moment. During 1919 the Great Powers redrew the map of the world with the Treaties of Paris and established the League of Nations intending to prevent future war. Yet what is often missed is that 1919 was a complex threshold between war and peace contested on a global scale. This process began prior to war's end with mutinies, labour and consumer unrest, colonial revolt but reached a high point in 1919. Most obviously, the Russian Revolutions of 1917 continued into 1919 which signalled a decisive year for the Bolshevik regime. While the leaders of the Great Powers famously drew up new states in their Parisian hotel rooms, state formation also had a popular dynamic. The Irish Republic was declared. Afghanistan gained independence. Labour unrest was widespread.

Abstract

La Contre-Révolution possède une existence historiographique paradoxale. Si elle est citée comme une menace constante et une force dangereuse, elle n'est présentée que sous une forme fragmentée, assemblant pêle-mêle les nobles de l'émigration, les penseurs militants, avec les ruraux de l'Ouest ou du Midi, les Viva Maria italiens et les paysans belges, à qui sont adjoints les pays européens entrés en guerre – l'Angleterre de Pitt en tête. Omniprésente dans l'ombre mais souvent absente du discours historique, la Contre-Révolution reste mal connue. Depuis une vingtaine d'années, l'histoire scientifique reprend cette question à nouveaux frais. C'est l'objet de ces pages que de proposer, modestement, à la fois un premier bilan des travaux récents et des pistes de recherches. Sans postuler l'existence d'une quelconque unité de la Contre-Révolution, cette rencontre entre des historiens européens brosse le tableau de cette réalité politique et sociale complexe, et montre la Contre-Révolution à la fois puissante et faible, essentielle et marginale. Elle met en valeur l'hétérogénéité des chronologies qui existent dans les différents pays, ceci expliquant la diversité des formes d'intervention de la Contre- Révolution. Enfin elle insiste sur l'importance fantasmatique de la Contre-Révolution européenne. La reconnaissance de la place de la Contre- Révolution dans les jeux politiques en France et en Europe permet de comprendre les affrontements qui lui furent liés comme autant d'épisodes des guerres civiles à l'intérieur de chacun des pays européens, ainsi que des moments de la lutte « internationale » ou « idéologique » qui a traversé toute l'Europe dans les XIXe et XXe siècles.

Abstract

Between 1944 and 1996, Guatemala experienced a revolution, counterrevolution, and civil war. Playing a pivotal role within these national shifts were students from Guatemala's only public university, the University of San Carlos (USAC). USAC students served in, advised, protested, and were later persecuted by the government, all while crafting a powerful student nationalism. In no other moment in Guatemalan history has the relationship between the university and the state been so mutable, yet so mutually formative. By showing how the very notion of the middle class in Guatemala emerged from these student movements, this book places an often-marginalized region and period at the center of histories of class, protest, and youth movements and provides an entirely new way to think about the role of universities and student bodies in the formation of liberal democracy throughout Latin America.

Abstract

Focolare, Community of Sant'Egidio, Neocatechumenal Way, Legionaries of Christ, Communion and Liberation, Opus Dei. These are but a few of the most recognizable names in the broader context of the so-called ecclesial movements. Their history goes back to the period following the First Vatican Council, crosses Vatican II, and develops throughout the twentieth century. It is a history that prepares the movements' rise in the last three decades, from John Paul II to Francis. These movements are a complex phenomenon that shapes the Church now more than before, and they play a key role for the future of Catholicism as a global community, in transition from a Europe-centered tradition to a world Church.
