Growing Up Working Class: Continuity and Change Among Viennese Youth, 1890-1938
ISBN: 9780271028071 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study of working-class culture, youth behavior, and the response of youths to conditions in a European setting acknowledges that poverty existed among much of the working class but questions the implicit arguments that these conditions necessarily brought about destructive responses. Until recently, various simplistic paradigms have dominated studies of European workers. These have stressed the misery of urban laborers in a capitalistic society, the functional importance of the isolated nuclear family in an industrial society, or the violent, authoritarian, and intolerant nature of...

Austria in the First Cold War 1945-55
ISBN: 9780333725474 / Angielski / Twarda / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. At the height of the first Cold War in the early 1950s, the Western powers worried that occupied Austria might become 'Europe's Korea' and feared a Communist takeover. The Soviets exploited their occupation zone for maximum reparations. American economic aid guaranteed Austria's survival and economic reconstruction. Their military assistance turned Austria into a 'secret ally' of the West. Austrian diplomacy played a vital role in securing the Austrian treaty in bilateral negotiations with Stalin's successors in the Kremlin demonstrating the leverage of the weak in the Cold War.

Nazism and the Working Class in Austria: Industrial Unrest and Political Dissent in the 'National Community'
ISBN: 9780521475013 / Angielski / Twarda / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The image of Hitler as a demagogic "pied piper" leading astray the "little people" of Austria is as misleading as it is powerful. Nazism and the Working Class in Austria is a case study of the ambiguous relationship between state and society under the Nazis. Workers did not seriously attempt or even expect to overthrow the Nazi regime in the face of unprecedented surveillance and terror; but neither were they converted, and their oppositional strategies and disgruntled political opinions reveal a truculent workforce, rather than one that was contented and converted.

Interwar Vienna: Culture Between Tradition and Modernity
ISBN: 9781571134202 / Angielski / Twarda / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Although beset by social, political, and economic instabilities, interwar Vienna was an exhilarating place, with pioneering developments in the arts and innovations in the social sphere. Research on the period long saw the city as a mere shadow of its former imperial self; more recently it has concentrated on high-profile individual figures or party politics. This volume of new essays widens the view, stretching disciplinary boundaries to consider the cultural and social movements that shaped the city. The collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire resulted not in an abandonment of the arts, but...

The Unfinished Peace: The Council of Foreign Ministers and the Hungarian Peace Treaty of 1947
ISBN: 9780880336499 / Angielski / Twarda / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Already published to critical acclaim in Romania and France, The Unfinished Peace examines the impact of the Council of Foreign Ministers on Hungary in the aftermath of World War II. The end of the war did not result in an overall, Versailles-type settlement. Instead, the United States, the Soviet Union, and Great Britain established a forum for peacemaking that resulted in the Hungarian Peace Treaty of 1947. With its harsh territorial redistribution and clauses demanding reparation, the treaty generated the opposite of peace. It failed to establish a true concord among the peoples of...
