General de Gaulle's Cold War

Challenging American Hegemony, 1963-68

Martin, G. J.

“While there is a lot of information for readers to take in, the subject is inherently complex, spanning different aspects of French foreign policy and the politics of other countries and institutions. In spite of this complexity, Martin displays a good grasp of the material. The book is the product of archival research in England, France, and the United States, as well as engagement with published collections and the relevant secondary literature on the topic. Martin has thus covered most of his bases.” · H-France Review

“[The book] is extremely well researched, well written, and Martin accomplishes his stated objective: namely, to provide a more balanced account of de Gaulle that goes beyond views of him as either a visionary, or an irresponsible and anti-American nationalist…Martin’s analysis makes a unique contribution in that it examines the linkages between the General's economic, political and security policy in order to understand how the three came together to shape his overall policy toward the US.” · Erin Mahan, Chief Historian, Office of the Secretary of Defense

Contrary to the assumption that Western and Eastern European economies and cinemas were very different from each other, they actually had much in common.

This book examines how the economic systems of the East and West impacted labor by focusing on the representation of work in European cinema.

Against Better Judgment

Akrasia in Anthropological Perspectives

McKearney, P. & Evans, N. H. A. (eds)

Anthropologists have long explained social behaviour as if people always do what they think is best. But what if most of these explanations only work because they are premised upon ignoring what philosophers call 'akrasia' – that is, the possibility that people might act against their better judgment? The contributors to this volume turn an ethnographic lens upon situations in which people seem to act out of line with what they judge, desire and intend.

Sounds of Modern History

Auditory Cultures in 19th- and 20th-Century Europe

Morat, D. (ed)

Since the late 19th century, there has been a paradigmatic shift in auditory cultures and practices in European societies. This change was brought about by modern phenomena such as urbanization, industrialization and mechanization, the rise of modern sciences, and of course the emergence of new sound recording and transmission media. This book contributes to our understanding of modern European history through the lens of sound by examining diverse subjects such as performed and recorded music, auditory technologies like the telephone and stethoscope, and the ambient noise of the city.

Transnational Hispanic Commemorations and Spanish Nationalism

Moreno-Luzón, J.

Hispanic commemorations that shaped the major elements of Spanish identity at the beginning of the 20th century, and their persistence to the present day, from the “discovery” of America to the publication of Don Quixote of la Mancha, are truly global and transnational events that have created a cultural community on which Spanish nationalism has become dependent.

Protests, Land Rights, and Riots

Postcolonial Struggles in Australia in the 1980s

Morris, B.

The 1970s saw the Aboriginal people of Australia struggle for recognition of their postcolonial rights. Rural communities, where large Aboriginal populations lived, were provoked as a consequence of social fragmentation, unparalleled unemployment, and other major economic and political changes. The ensuing riots, protests, and law-and-order campaigns in New South Wales captured the tense relations that existed between indigenous people, the police, and the criminal justice system.

Weary Warriors

Power, Knowledge, and the Invisible Wounds of Soldiers

Moss, P. & Prince, M. J.

“…offers a sustained and persuasive analysis of the institutional dynamics and individual actions by which various forms of warrelated neuroses are recognised, treated, negotiated, claimed and reproduced…The rich and impressive array of sources – military and medical texts, biographies and autobiographies, popular novels and films and journalistic accounts – on which the analysis is based makes the volume all the more persuasive.” · Social Anthropology

“This is a solid piece of scholarship. The authors successfully apply key concepts from Foucault, along with those of his feminist critics, to the analysis of soldiers returning from war. In so doing, they deepen our understanding of how weary warriors are constructed through time and space, and what his/her diagnosis, treatment, and release says about wider relations of power in, between, and across the state, the military, psychiatry, and the body itself.” · Carolyn Gallaher, American University
