June 2023Die unbequeme Vergangenheit
Vom Umgang mit Staatsverbrechen in Russland und anderswo
by Nikolai Epplée, Anselm Bühling
Wie umgehen mit einer Geschichte, die von Phasen exzessiven Terrors geprägt war? Kann es eine Aufarbeitung der Vergangenheit geben, wenn als einzige Institution der Geheimdienst den Zusammenbruch der Sowjetunion überdauert hat? Nikolai Epplée umreißt in seinem fesselnden Buch die Unterdrückungsmethoden der Sowjetherrschaft von der Oktoberrevolution bis zu Stalins Tod und die anschließenden Versuche, ihre Opfer zu rehabilitieren. Eine »Versöhnung« von oben spricht die Bürger von Schuld und Verantwortung frei, während Initiativen von unten, wie die im Dezember 2021 verbotene Menschenrechtsgesellschaft Memorial, Millionen von Toten ihre Namen zurückgeben. Vergleichend blickt er auf Länder wie Argentinien, Deutschland, Japan, Polen, Spanien und Südafrika. Ob Schlussstrich, juristische Aufarbeitung oder Wahrheitskommissionen – was lässt sich daraus lernen? Welche Folgen das Ausbleiben der Vergangenheitsbearbeitung für die russische Gesellschaft hatte, zeigt sich heute dramatischer als je zuvor. Wie dennoch zu einem produktiven Umgang mit der Vergangenheit gefunden werden könnte – das ist Thema dieser eindringlichen Studie, die seit Kriegsbeginn ein Bestseller ist.

Civil rights & citizenshipJuly 2015Anti-terrorism, citizenship and security
by Lee Jarvis, Michael Lister
This book explores how different publics make sense of and evaluate anti-terrorism powers within the UK, and the implications of this for citizenship and security. Drawing on primary empirical research, the book argues that whilst white individuals are not unconcerned about the effects of anti-terrorism, ethnic minority citizens (including, but not only those identifying as Muslim) believe that anti-terrorism powers have impacted negatively on their citizenship and security. This book thus offers the first systematic engagement with 'vernacular' or 'everyday' understandings of anti-terrorism policy, citizenship and security. It argues that while transformations in anti-terrorism frameworks impact on public experiences of security and citizenship, they do not do so in a uniform, homogeneous, or predictable manner. At the same time, public understandings and expectations of security and citizenship themselves shape how developments in anti-terrorism frameworks are discussed and evaluated. This important new book will be of interest to researchers and students working in a wide range of disciplines including Political Science, International Relations, Security Studies and Sociology.

January 2015Lessons of Chinese Anti-Corruption History
by Xi Hua
Why did an egg provided for emperors in Qing Dynasty cost 10 liang (equal to 1,000 U.S. dollars)? How could a commoner be promoted to senior ofcial in two years merely because of a folding fan? Could Chong Zhen, the last emperor in Ming Dynasty, avoid fleeing away in despair and ending up hanging himself? Answers all lie in this impressive book. As a Chinese saying goes, "Guided by history, one can see through reasons behind a nation's rise and fall." Narrated by a senior cadre of Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, the book consists of 24 referential stories about anti-corruption in Chinese history. Through continuously reflecting on past lessons, the author sums up valuable experience for combating corruption and building a trustworthy government. In concise and vivid language, this book reveals vast unheard anecdotes and historical truths of Chinese officialdom before establishment of PRC, which are significant for readers inside and outside China to understand historical roots of current anti-corruption policies in China.

February 1997Niemand, der mit mir geht
Roman
by Nadine Gordimer, Friederike Kuhn
»Die Zukunft«, sagt die weiße Juristin und aktive Gegnerin der Apartheid Vera Stark zu ihrem Mann Ben, »besteht darin, die Vergangenheit rückgängig zu machen.« Sie meint es politisch und weiß, es gilt auch für ihr Leben. Sie zieht die Konsequenzen, trennt sich von ihrem Mann, verkauft das ihr durch die Scheidung zugefallene Haus und geht den dornigen Weg der Politik allein weiter.

Settlers at the end of empire
Race and the politics of migration in South Africa, Rhodesia and the United Kingdom
by Jean Smith
Settlers at the end of empire traces the development of racialised migration regimes in South Africa, Rhodesia (present-day Zimbabwe) and the United Kingdom from the Second World War to the end of apartheid in 1994. While South Africa and Rhodesia, like other settler colonies, had a long history of restricting the entry of migrants of colour, in the 1960s under existential threat and after abandoning formal ties with the Commonwealth they began to actively recruit white migrants, the majority of whom were British. At the same time, with the 1962 Commonwealth Immigrants Act, the British government began to implement restrictions aimed at slowing the migration of British subjects of colour. In all three nations, these policies were aimed at the preservation of nations imagined as white, revealing the persistence of the racial ideologies of empire across the era of decolonisation.

September 2016Anti-Europäer
Breivik, Dugin, al-Suri & Co.
by Claus Leggewie
Die Griechenland-Krise und die mangelnde Handlungsbereitschaft im Umgang mit den Flüchtlingen haben nachdrücklich gezeigt, dass es um die Europäische Union derzeit nicht allzu gut bestellt ist. Parallel zu diesen internen Problemen mehren sich Stimmen unterschiedlichster Provenienz, die Europa attackieren und europäische Werte infrage stellen: Identitäre wie der Massenmörder Anders Breivik, Dschihadisten wie der Syrer Abu Musab al-Suri, »Eurasier« wie der Putin-Berater Alexander Dugin, illiberale Demokraten à la Viktor Orbán, aber auch einige Linkspopulisten am Rande von Syriza und Podemos. Claus Leggewie porträtiert Wortführer und politische Unternehmer, die unabhängig voneinander, aber oft in ungewollter Komplizenschaft die »Festung Europa« schleifen wollen. Er erklärt, woher sie kommen, welche Pläne sie verfolgen und welche Mächtigen sie unterstützen. Und er fordert dazu auf, sich endlich politisch mit ihnen auseinanderzusetzen.
