Zusammenfassung: University history has a long-standing record. The early formation of university historiography materialized not only as a result of scientific self-reflection, but also as an occasion-driven practice tied to anniversaries. Therefore, it was linked to a concrete context of utilization and application. Thus, university history was often some sort of casual remittance work, carried out on the occasion of a jubilee by historians who were chosen rather for their local availability than for their special knowledge. This holds true even today, in spite of the fact that since the mid-1990s there has been an increased research interest in university history, both on the national and international level. Thus, it still seems productive to ask what anniversaries meau for the writing of university history. In what follows, I will address this question by a three-step approach. First, l am going to roughly sketch out the history of university jubilees to illuminate the historical background of this particular production context. In step two, I will turn to some basic and systematic reflections about how university history can and should be written. Finally, step three will provide a short screening of the (German) anniversary publications that came out in recent years

Researching and writing its history has always been one of the tasks of the university, particularly on the occasion of anniversary celebrations. Through case studies of Prague (1848, 1948), Oslo (1911), Cluj (from 1919), Leipzig (2009) and Trondheim (2010), this book shows the continuity of the close relationship between jubilees and university historiography and the impact of this interaction on the jubilee publications and academic heritage. Up to today, historians are faced with the challenge of finding a balance between an engaged, celebratory approach and a more distant, academically critical one. In its third part, the book aims to go beyond the jubilee and presents three other ways of writing university history, by focusing on the university as an educational institution. Contributors are: Thomas Brandt, Pieter Dhondt, Marek Ďurčanský, Jonas Flöter, Jorunn Sem Fure, Trude Maurer, Emmanuelle Picard, Ana-Maria Stan and Johan Östling.

This book provides an analysis of university missions over time and space. It starts out by presenting a governance framework focusing on the demands on universities set by regulators, market actors and scrutinizers. It examines organizational structures, population development, the fundamental tasks of universities, and internal governance structures. Next, the book offers a discussion of the idea and role of universities in society, exploring concepts such as autonomy and universality, and the university as a transformative institute. The next four chapters deal with the development of universities from medieval times, through the Renaissance, towards the research universities in the nineteenth century in Europe and the United States. The following five chapters analyse recent developments of increasing external demands manifested through evaluations, accreditations and rankings, which in turn have had effects on the organization of universities. Topics discussed include markets, managers, globalization, consumer models and competition. The book concludes by a discussion and analysis of the future challenges of universities.

Als Reformuniversitäten sollten Konstanz und Bielefeld in den 1960er Jahren neue Konzepte erproben, Reformen an den bereits bestehenden Hochschulen vorbereiten und eine Differenzierung des Hochschulsystems einleiten. Für diese Prestigeprojekte der damaligen Hochschul- und Landespolitik engagierten sich institutionelle Akteure im bundesdeutschen Wissenschaftssystem, wie der Wissenschaftsrat, die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft oder der Verband Deutscher Studentenschaften, aber auch prominente Wissenschaftler wie Ralf Dahrendorf in Konstanz und Helmut Schelsky in Bielefeld. Die Entwicklung von Universitäten neuen Typs schloss an intensive Diskussionen an, die seit Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs über die Reformbedürftigkeit der Hochschulen geführt wurden mit Bezug auf neuere internationale Entwicklungen ebenso wie auf Traditionen der deutschen Universitäten. Auf dem Prüfstand standen zunächst alle Kernfunktionen in Bildung, Ausbildung und Forschung. Bei der Entwicklung der Universitäten Konstanz und Bielefeld konzentrierten sich die beteiligten Wissenschaftler schließlich jedoch auf die Forschungsfunktion. Die Idee für neue Colleges konnte sich hingegen nicht durchsetzen, obwohl die neuen Universitäten als Campus-Universitäten gebaut wurden. Noch während Konstanz und Bielefeld aufgebaut wurden, veränderte sich das hochschulpolitische Umfeld allerdings sehr dynamisch. Die Reformuniversitäten verloren ihre herausragende Position in der Hochschulpolitik rasch, doch die Idee der Reform durch Neugründung erlebte in den 1990er Jahren eine Renaissance, ebenso wie der Wunsch nach einer Differenzierung des Hochschulsystems.

Avoiding what Barbara Tuchman has called the "trap built into all recorded history—the disproportionate survival of the negative," this book offers a balanced appraisal of Imperial Germany. Without ignoring the society's many problems, the contributors question the overwhelmingly negative tenor of Wilhelmian historiography and analyze key institutions and events to illustrate the positive elements of this period in German history. What accounted for the reputation of its universities and research institutions, for instance, or for the successful growth of its cities, or for the dramatic drop in the emigration rate by the turn of the century? The answers reveal a spirit of innovation and optimism that was at least as characteristic of German life and society at the time as were the glorification of military values and the overlay of cultural pessimism. Recognizing the wide range of interpretations on this controversial subject, the editors have included a critical bibliography that explores the rich and varied scholarship on pre-1914 Germany.

The Palgrave Handbook of the History of Human Sciences offers a uniquely comprehensive and global overview of the evolution of ideas, concepts and policies within the human sciences. Drawn from histories of the social and psychological sciences, anthropology, the history and philosophy of science, and the history of ideas, this collection analyses the health and welfare of populations, evidence of the changing nature of our local communities, cities, societies or global movements, and studies the way our humanness or ‘human nature’ undergoes shifts because of broader technological shifts or patterns of living. This Handbook serves as an authoritative reference to a vast source of representative scholarly work in interdisciplinary fields, a means of understanding patterns of social change and the conduct of institutions, as well as the histories of these ‘ways of knowing’ probe the contexts, circumstances and conditions which underpin continuity and change in the way we count, analyse and understand ourselves in our different social worlds. It reflects a critical scholarly interest in both traditional and emerging concerns on the relations between the biological and social sciences, and between these and changes and continuities in societies and conducts, as 21st century research moves into new intellectual and geographic territories, more diverse fields and global problematics.

Jahrestage und Jubiläen spielen im „Doing History" eine zentrale Rolle: Sie erweitern qualitativ und quantitativ die Kreise der Personen, die „Geschichte" konsumieren und produzieren, zugleich korrespondieren und konkurrieren im Jubiläum verschiedene Medien der Geschichte: Fach- und populärwissenschaftliche Schriften sind dabei nur eine und zumeist nicht die wirkmächtigste Erzählung der Vergangenheit: Auch über Feste und Feiern, Spiele und Inszenierungen werden individuelle und kollektive Identitäten adressiert und Zugehörigkeiten zu (gedachten) Gemeinschaften (re-)produziert. Auch in der Geschichte von Hochschulen und Universitäten spielen Gründungsjubiläen eine zentrale Rolle. Denn Jubiläen generieren eine spezifische Aufmerksamkeit für die Institutionen und produzieren nicht selten eine Vielzahl an Geschichtssorten, in denen nicht nur die Geschichte der Institution thematisiert, sondern die Institution selbst reproduziert, reifiziert oder auch reformiert wird. Das Geschichte-Machen ist somit Ausdruck des Ringens um das institutionelle Selbstverständnis zum Zeitpunkt des Jubiläums und eignet sich, um reflektierte und unreflektierte Selbstzuschreibungen zu untersuchen. Die Beschäftigung mit Hochschuljubiläen ermöglicht dadurch nicht nur die Perspektivierung vergangener Gegenwarten, sondern rekurriert auch auf vergangene Zukunftserwartungen und die Rolle, die Geschichte darin spielen sollte. Der Sammelband adressiert diese Fragen anhand zwei eng verwobener Schwerpunkte – der identitätsstiftenden Funktion von Jubiläen und den in ihnen zutage kommenden Geschichtssorten – am Beispiel verschiedener Hochschultypen in Belgien, Dänemark, Deutschland, Frankreich, Österreich und der Schweiz in einer longue durée von der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts bis in die Gegenwart.

While bookstore shelves around the world have never ceased to display best-selling "life-and-letters" biographies in prominent positions, the genre became less popular among academic historians during the Cold War decades. Their main concern then was with political and socioeconomic structures, institutions, and organizations, or-more recently-with the daily lives of ordinary people and small communities. The contributors to this volume-all well known senior historians-offer self-critical reflections on problems they encountered when writing biographies themselves. Some of them also deal with topics specific to Central Europe, such as the challenges of writing about the lives of both victims and perpetrators. Although the volume concentrates on European historiography, its strong methodological and conceptual focus will be of great interest to non-European historians wrestling with the old "structure-versus-agency" question in their own work.
