The Internationalism of Social Movements

0.0 (0)

Moving the Social: Journal of Social History and the History of Social Movements is an international, peer-reviewed journal rooted in the discipline of history, but with an explicit interest in work on social issues and social movements from other disciplines, particularly the social sciences, geography, anthropology and ethnology. It is particularly interested in promoting transnational and comparative perspectives on the history of social movements within a broader context of social history. The journal is currently published three times a year, with issues either on a specific theme or as a thematically mixed issue. Most issues also include a comprehensive review article, at least one of which each year covers the most recent publications in the field of social movement studies.

The search for normality

1997

0.0 (0)

The Historikerstreit of the 1980s has ended inconclusively amidst heated debates on the nature and course of German national history. The author follows the debates beyond the unexpected reunification of the country in 1989/90 and analyses the most recent trends in German historiography. Reunification, he observes, has brought in its wake efforts on the extreme Right to re-establish a nationalist historiography. Even among the liberal-conservative mainstream of German historiography, an urgent search for the "normality" of the nation-state has begun. Nor have the critical historians been unaffected by this. As a result, so the author fears, the contested definition of national identity might strengthen, in his eyes, the unwelcome predominance of the national perspective in historical research.
