        US diplomacy and the Good Friday Agreement in post-conflict Northern Ireland

        by Richard Hargy

        Richard Haass and Mitchell Reiss, as autonomous diplomats in the George W. Bush State Department, were able to alter US intervention in Northern Ireland and play critical roles in the post-1998 peace process. Their contributions have not been fully appreciated or understood. The restoration of Northern Ireland's power-sharing government in 2007 was made possible by State Department-led intervention in the peace process. There are few references to Northern Ireland in work examining the foreign policy legacy of the George W. Bush presidency. Moreover, the ability to control US foreign policy towards the region brought one of George W. Bush's Northern Ireland special envoys into direct diplomatic conflict with the most senior actors inside the British government. This book will uncover the extent of this fall-out and provide original accounts on how diplomatic relations between these old allies became so fraught.

        Transmodern

        An art history of contact, 1920–60

        by Christian Kravagna,

        How can we reconfigure our picture of modern art after the postcolonial turn without simply adding regional art histories to the Eurocentric canon? Transmodern examines the global dimension of modern art by tracing the crossroads of different modernisms in Asia, Europe and the Americas. Featuring case studies in Indian modernism, the Harlem Renaissance and post-war abstraction, it demonstrates the significance of transcultural contacts between artists from both sides of the colonial divide. The book argues for the need to study non-western avant-gardes and Black avant-gardes within the west as transmodern counter-currents to mainstream modernism. It situates transcultural art practices from the 1920s to the 1960s within the framework of anti-colonial movements and in relation to contemporary transcultural thinking that challenged colonial concepts of race and culture with notions of syncretism and hybridity.

        Georg Kreisler für Boshafte

        by Georg Kreisler, Georg Kreisler

        Musiker, Komponist, Kabarettist, Satiriker, Schriftsteller … Georg Kreisler ist ein Meister der Sprache und der literarischen Satire. Bekannt wurde er vor allem durch seine makaber-grotesken Chansons. Seine Texte zeichnen sich durch hintergründigen, oftmals schwarzen Humor und kompromißlose Kritik an Gesellschaft und Politik aus. Für diesen Band hat er selbst eine Auswahl seiner boshaftesten Zitate zusammengestellt. Originell, satirisch und manchmal auch zweideutig, haben sie eines gemeinsam – sie sind das Werk eines sehr genauen Beobachters, der mit jedem Wort ins Schwarze trifft.

        Rechte Bedrohungsallianzen

        Signaturen der Bedrohung II

        by Wilhelm Heitmeyer, Manuela Freiheit, Peter Sitzer

        Nach Ereignissen wie dem Mord an Walter Lübcke, dem Anschlag in Halle oder den rassistischen Morden in Hanau im Februar 2020 wird regelmäßig darüber diskutiert, inwiefern es sich um isolierte Einzeltäter handelt oder ob ein Zusammenhang zu bestimmten Parteien und Ideologien besteht. Der renommierte Rechtsextremismusforscher Wilhelm Heitmeyer hat dazu bereits 2012 das Modell eines konzentrischen Eskalationskontinuums präsentiert: ganz außen stehen menschenfeindliche Einstellungen in der Bevölkerung, im Zentrum terroristische Zellen, dazwischen organisierte Akteure, »Vordenker«, systemfeindliche Milieus und Unterstützernetzwerke. Die Gewaltbereitschaft nimmt von außen nach innen zu, die jeweils äußere Schicht liefert ihrer inneren Nachbarin Legitimation. In dieser hochaktuellen Studie zeigt Wilhelm Heitmeyer zusammen mit Peter Sitzer und Manuela Freiheit u. a. am Beispiel der Ausschreitungen in Chemnitz im August 2018, wie sich innerhalb dieses Kontinuums Allianzen herausbilden und wie diese die offene Gesellschaft immer stärker bedrohen.
