Breslau blickt auf tausend Jahre Geschichte zurück: die Stadt in der Mitte zwischen Berlin, Prag, Wien, Budapest und Warschau wurde hin und her geworfen zwischen Preuße, Böhmen, Österreich, Polen, war Metropole, Grenzstadt, Handelszentrum. Wie in einem Mikrokosmos spiegelt die Geschichte Breslaus die wechselvolle Geschichte Europas. Davies und Moorhouse schreiben die Geschichte der großen Reiche und ihres Zerfalls, der Kriege und der wirtschaftlichen Blüte, vor allem aber der Menschen dieser Stadt: Juden und Katholiken, Deutsche, Tschechen und Polen. Ihre Schicksale verweben sich zu einem Meisterwerk erzählter Geschichte.

This is a book about economics and racism: During World War I, the liberal global economic system, based on principles of free trade and most-favored nation treatment and negotiated in gold parities, collapsed for good. The disintegration and collapse of commerce eventually led to racist cleansing, expulsion and mass murder. Against this background, this book offers new perspectives on the racist fault-lines that appeared and deepened in European economies after the end of what was regarded as the Great War. At what point did people start to ostracize their neighbors economically because they thought they were of a different ethnic group? Who decided who was to be excluded? Where did the fault-lines open? Where did the boundaries lie? How were they defined – by law, or by common practice? How much extra time and money were people prepared to spend in order to do ostracize their neighbors? And what did that mean for the economy – and society – as such?

This book is open access under a CC BY-NC 2.5 license. On April 22, 1915, the German military released 150 tons of chlorine gas at Ypres, Belgium. Carried by a long-awaited wind, the chlorine cloud passed within a few minutes through the British and French trenches, leaving behind at least 1,000 dead and 4,000 injured. This chemical attack, which amounted to the first use of a weapon of mass destruction, marks a turning point in world history. The preparation as well as the execution of the gas attack was orchestrated by Fritz Haber, the director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry in Berlin-Dahlem. During World War I, Haber transformed his research institute into a center for the development of chemical weapons (and of the means of protection against them). Bretislav Friedrich and Martin Wolf (Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society, the successor institution of Haber’s institute) together with Dieter Hoffmann, Jürgen Renn, and Florian Schmaltz (Max Planck Institute for the History of Science) organized an international symposium to commemorate the centenary of the infamous chemical attack. The symposium examined crucial facets of chemical warfare from the first research on and deployment of chemical weapons in WWI to the development and use of chemical warfare during the century hence. The focus was on scientific, ethical, legal, and political issues of chemical weapons research and deployment — including the issue of dual use — as well as the ongoing effort to control the possession of chemical weapons and to ultimately achieve their elimination. The volume consists of papers presented at the symposium and supplemented by additional articles that together cover key aspects of chemical warfare from 22 April 1915 until the summer of 2015.

This book enters new territory by moving toward a new conceptual framework for comparative and interdisciplinary research on transcultural state formation. Once more, statehood and governance are highly discussed topics, whereby modern state building is often considered to be a genuinely European characteristic, despite the fact that early modern Europeans knew of, experienced and grappled with highly developed states in Asia. The articles collected in this book discuss how strategies of governance were part of transcultural transfers between the two continents. The first part presents and discusses concepts of statehood in order to provide a set of conceptual tools for analyzing the transcultural appropriation of governmental strategies. The second part is concerned with case studies that examine the transcultural perception of governance, and the third and final part gathers perspectives on political practice in transcultural encounters (e.g. military, administration, and diplomacy)

El relato trepidante de los ocho días que cambiaron el rumbo del mundo. Uno de los mejores libros que se han escrito sobre la locura nazi. 30 de abril de 1945. En un búnker en las profundidades de la cancillería del Tercer Reich, Adolf Hitler y Eva Braun se suicidan. Pero la Alemania nazi sobrevive, la guerra no ha terminado. Todo parece detenerse y, sin embargo, todo se mueve a un ritmo frenético. Volker Ullrich relata jornada a jornada este tiempo fuera del tiempo y adentra al lector en un mundo que se derrumba, lleno de drama, violencia, esperanza y miedo. Los siguientes ocho días, entre los más turbulentos de la historia, fueron testigo de las batallas finales de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y el colapso de la Wehrmacht, pero también de las últimas marchas de la muerte, de una epidemia de suicidios y violaciones masivas, de los intentos fanáticos de una última resistencia, de la desesperada huida de los peces gordos nazis, de la liberación de los campos de concentración... En esta narración vibrante y conmovedora, el prestigioso historiador y periodista Volker Ullrich nos lleva al régimen fantasmagórico del almirante Karl Dönitz, sucesor de Hitler, que huye hacia Flensburgo mientras las fuerzas aliadas avanzan inexorablemente. Berlín capitula, el científico y diseñador de cohetes Wernher von Braun es detenido, Marlene Dietrich busca a su hermana en Bergen-Belsen. El relato de estos ocho días de mayo, basado en una asombrosa variedad de nuevas fuentes primarias y elaborado a partir de miniaturas históricas que forman un amplio mosaico, resulta más cautivador que muchas novelas de suspense. La crítica ha dicho: «Ullrich demuestra que los historiadores alemanes también saben escribir de forma elegante y cautivadora. Más emocionante que muchas novelas de suspense». Der Spiegel «Apasionante, impecablemente investigado». The Wall Street Journal «Excelente. Una síntesis admirable». The Times «Volker Ullrich ordena los hechos de tal manera que la lectura se convierte en un paseo histórico que ni resulta complaciente ni sermonea». Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung «Cautivador. Muestra adónde conducen la locura política y la decadencia moral, la violencia y la guerra». Frankfurter Rundschau «Un cambio de perspectiva revelador. Pocos serán los lectores que, aún creyendo conocer bien estos meses tan explorados, no se encuentren una y otra vez con detalles o episodios nuevos para ellos». Die Welt «Un libro vivo, de ritmo rápido y magníficamente investigado». The Spectator «Un relato vibrante de ocho días en los que toda Europa quedó suspendida en la confusión y el caos». Kirkus Reviews «La crónica brillante, cautivadora y a menudo inquietante de un momento surrealista de la historia». Publishers Weekly «Escrito con maestría». Library Journal «Un apasionante rompecabezas escénico». Der Spiegel «Inteligente y agudo. Un retrato vivaz basado en la observación precisa, el dominio de las fuentes y una mirada amplia». Süddeutsche Zeitung «Con un gran sentido de la narración, Ullrich funde los testimonios privados y la bibliografía histórica, las memorias y los archivos en una panorámica completa y muy lograda de un periodo tumultuoso». Die Tageszeitung «Ofrece fabulosas lecciones de historia para los tiempos actuales». Tagesspiegel «Un libro emocionante que nos deja casi sin aliento, y literalmente nos obliga a seguir leyendo». Stuttgarter Zeitung

In early 1945, the Red Army plunged into the Third Reich from the east, rolling up territory and crushing virtually everything in its path, with one exception: the city of Breslau, which Hitler had declared a fortress-city, to be defended to the death. This book examines in detail the notorious four-month siege of Breslau. • The first full-length English-language account of the bloody siege • Chronicles the bitter struggle as the Red Army encircled Breslau and eventually pillaged the city, taking savage retribution on the survivors • Details the brutal methods used by the city's Nazi leaders to keep German troops fighting and maintain order
