\"InvisibleINVISIBLE FOUNDERS<\/a>

NEW SERIES: Transnational Girlhoods<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Series Editors: Claudia Mitchell, Bodil Formark, Ann Smith, and Heather Switzer<\/p>\n

Girlhood Studies has emerged over the last decade as a strong area of interdisciplinary research and activism, encompassing studies of feminism, women and gender, and childhood and youth and extending into such areas as sociology, anthropology, development studies, children\u2019s literature, and cultural studies. As the first book series to focus specifically on this exciting field, Transnational Girlhoods<\/em> will help to advance the research and activism agenda by publishing full-length monographs and edited collections that reflect a robust interdisciplinary and global perspective.<\/p>\n

\u201c<\/em>The Nature of German Imperialism is at once an analytic tour de force and an empirically rich and cogent account of wildlife conservation as an ideologically charged political activity rife with contradictions and denials\u2026His grounding of German imperialism in the wider turn-of- the-century European intellectual and social history is a most welcome contribution to East African studies.\u201d<\/em> \u2022 Finalist for the 2017 BETHWELL A.

“This is clearly a book that scholars of Eastern Europe and the Holocaust should read with interest, not least because of Lehnstaedt\u2019s arresting conclusion that the Volksgemeinschaft was not created in the East, in the end, but that \u2018it was possible there to get much closer to the intended goal than [it was] in the Reich.\u201d<\/em> \u2022 Central European History<\/strong><\/p>\n
