And while few dispute the expulsion\u2019s tragic scope, it remains the subject of fierce controversy, as activists have fought for international recognition of an atrocity they consider comparable to the Armenian genocide. This book provides a much-needed analysis of the Greek genocide as cultural trauma.

For Anglo-American observers in particular, the legacies of two world wars still powerfully define twentieth-century German history, whether through the lens of Nazi-era militarism and racial hatred or the nation\u2019s emergence as a \u201cmodel\u201d postwar industrial democracy. This volume transcends such common categories, bringing together transatlantic studies that are unburdened by the ideological and methodological constraints of previous generations of scholarship. From American perceptions of the Kaiserreich to the challenges posed by a multicultural Europe, it argues for\u2014and exemplifies\u2014an approach to German Studies that is nuanced, self-reflective, and holistic.<\/p>\n<p>Read\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/downloads\/intros\/JarauschDifferent_intro.pdf\">Introduction<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/covers\/DeZordoFragmented.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"229\" \/><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/title\/DeZordoFragmented\">A FRAGMENTED LANDSCAPE<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Abortion Governance and Protest Logics in Europe<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Edited by Silvia De Zordo, Joanna Mishtal, and Lorena Anton<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Volume 20, <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/series\/protest-culture-and-society\">Protest, Culture &amp; Society<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Since World War II, abortion policies have remained remarkably varied across European nations, with struggles over abortion rights at the forefront of national politics. This volume analyses European abortion governance and explores how social movements, political groups, and individuals use protests and resistance to influence abortion policy. Drawing on case studies from Italy, Spain, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the European Union, it analyses the strategies and discourses of groups seeking to liberalise or restrict reproductive rights. It also illuminates the ways that reproductive rights politics intersect with demographic anxieties, as well as the rising nationalisms and xenophobia related to austerity policies, mass migration and the recent terrorist attacks in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Read\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/downloads\/intros\/DeZordoFragmented_intro.pdf\">Introduction<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>New In Paperback:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/covers\/ChareMatters.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"139\" height=\"210\" \/><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/title\/ChareMatters\">MATTERS OF TESTIMONY<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Interpreting the Scrolls of Auschwitz<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Nicholas Chare and Dominic Williams<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Check out Nicholas Chare and Dominic Williams\u2019s piece on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.slate.com\/blogs\/the_vault.html\">Slate\u2019s The Vault<\/a> and also<a href=\"http:\/\/berghahnbooks.com\/blog\/searching-for-feelings-the-scrolls-of-auschwitz-and-son-of-saul\"> Searching for Feelings: The Scrolls of Auschwitz and Son of Saul<\/a> on the Berghahn Blog.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>In<\/em> Matters of Testimony<em>, Nicholas Chare and Dominic Williams use the tools of literary criticism to analyse these formidable texts and offer new reflections on the scrolls.
