Book Synopsis Rebellion, Community and Custom in Early Modern Germany by : Norbert Schindler
Download or read book Rebellion, Community and Custom in Early Modern Germany written by Norbert Schindler and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-10-17 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When this volume first appeared in German it inspired a whole generation of young scholars. Schindler recreates the lives of both the poor and excluded; the milieu of the burghers; and the rumbustuous lifestyles of the Counts von Zimmern. A true archivist, he evokes the lost worlds of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century people. He investigates popular nicknames, snowball fights, carnival rituals, even what people did at night-time before the advent of lighting. A final essay deals with an extraordinary late set of trials for witchcraft, in which over 200 people died. Translated into English for the first time, the volume contains a new Foreword by Natalie Zemon Davis and a new introductory essay setting out the key influences of Schindler's work. Norbert Schindler is the leading exponent of historical anthropology in the German-speaking world. A founding member of the German journal Historische Anthropologie, Schindler teaches at the University of Salzburg.
Book Synopsis Patriots and Paupers by : Mary Lindemann
Download or read book Patriots and Paupers written by Mary Lindemann and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1990-10-04 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patriots and Paupers carefully analyzes a crucial juncture in the history of a great city: Hamburg's passage from the pre-modern into the modern world. Despite the relative wealth of historical literature on Reformation Germany and on Germany after unification, few English-language histories have addressed the events of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Mary Lindemann here details issues associated with poor relief--indigency, mendicancy, public health, labor regulation, social control, and disciplining--then uses these as springboards to broader historical debates. She draws out the subtle yet decisive political shift from the paternalistic dirigismé of a government of fathers and uncles to the socio-economic laissez-faire of early liberalism, and locates this political metamorphosis firmly within the framework of Hamburg's dynamic economic development and dramatic demographic growth. She links these political and social changes to the intellectual, cultural, and prosopographical contexts of the German Enlightenment. Far more than a history of poverty and social welfare policies, Patriots and Paupers explores the critical interconnections between economics, demographics, social change, and government in the closing years of the European Old Regime.
Book Synopsis Health Care and Poor Relief in 18th and 19th Century Northern Europe by : Ole Peter Grell
Download or read book Health Care and Poor Relief in 18th and 19th Century Northern Europe written by Ole Peter Grell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history governments have had to confront the problem of how to deal with the poorer parts of their population. During the medieval and early modern period this responsibility was largely borne by religious institutions, civic institutions and individual charity. By the eighteenth century, however, the rapid social and economic changes brought about by industrialisation put these systems under intolerable strain, forcing radical new solutions to be sought to address both old and new problems of health care and poor relief. This volume looks at how northern European governments of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries coped with the needs of the poor, whilst balancing any new measures against the perceived negative effects of relief upon the moral wellbeing of the poor and issues of social stability. Taken together, the essays in this volume chart the varying responses of states, social classes and political theorists towards the great social and economic issue of the age, industrialisation. Its demands and effects undermined the capacity of the old poor relief arrangements to look after those people that the fits and starts of the industrialisation cycle itself turned into paupers. The result was a response that replaced the traditional principle of 'outdoor' relief, with a generally repressive system of 'indoor' relief that lasted until the rise of organised labour forced a more benign approach to the problems of poverty. Although complete in itself, this volume also forms the third of a four-volume survey of health care and poor relief provision between 1500 and 1900, edited by Ole Peter Grell and Andrew Cunningham.
Book Synopsis Poverty and Welfare in Modern German History by : Lutz Raphael
Download or read book Poverty and Welfare in Modern German History written by Lutz Raphael and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many, the history of German social policy is defined primarily by that nation’s postwar emergence as a model of the European welfare state. As this comprehensive volume demonstrates, however, the question of how to care for the poor has had significant implications for German history throughout the modern era. Here, eight leading historians provide essential case studies and syntheses of current research into German welfare, from the Holy Roman Empire to the present day. Along the way, they trace the parallel historical dynamics that have continued to shape German society, including religious diversity, political exclusion and inclusion, and concepts of race and gender.
Book Synopsis Municipal Life and Government in Germany by : William Harbutt Dawson
Download or read book Municipal Life and Government in Germany written by William Harbutt Dawson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-19 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1914, in various writings on German life and institutions, Dawson has touched upon isolated aspects of the subject of municipal government. The book, as its title explains, is concerned solely with questions of urban administration, yet without the limitation which the use of the word "municipal" might seem to suggest. The larger German cities and towns correspond for all practical purposes to the municipalities of the United Kingdom, as the smaller German towns correspond to the urban districts.

Book Synopsis Citizenship and Nationhood in France and Germany by : Rogers BRUBAKER
Download or read book Citizenship and Nationhood in France and Germany written by Rogers BRUBAKER and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The difference between French and German definitions of citizenship is instructive--and, for millions of immigrants from North Africa, Turkey, and Eastern Europe, decisive. Rogers Brubaker shows how this difference--between the territorial basis of the French citizenry and the German emphasis on blood descent--was shaped and sustained by sharply differing understandings of nationhood, rooted in distinctive French and German paths to nation-statehood.
Book Synopsis Poor Relief and Protestantism by : Timothy G. Fehler
Download or read book Poor Relief and Protestantism written by Timothy G. Fehler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of the organisation and practical operation of the system of poor relief in Emden from the late 15th century to the end of the 16th. The city went through dramatic economic, confessional and constitutional changes during this period and so offers an ideal setting for the study of the emergence and development of a highly organised, multi-jurisdictional system of social welfare in the early modern period. Utilising account books, church council minutes, wills, contracts, correspondence and guild records it focuses on the day-to-day operation of poor relief - how the many diverse institutions actually functioned. As elsewhere in Europe, the Reformation did not immediately result in swift changes in poor relief; the Roman Catholic components of the administration of social welfare were dissolved and replaced gradually. It was only when the vast changes in religious, social and economic life which occurred at the middle of the 16th century forced matters that the methods of relief for the needy were revolutionised. The city was flooded with refugees from the Dutch revolt, there were widespread and severe economic difficulties caused by bad harvests and skyrocketing prices, and the church underwent a period of intense Calvinisation; only then were Reformed institutions and methods introduced. At times, religious arguments dominated the poor relief debate, while at others the social welfare system was barely affected; the effectiveness of the new systems and institutions is illuminated by an analysis of the recipients of relief during the second half of the 16th century.
Book Synopsis Health Care and Poor Relief in 18th and 19th Century Southern Europe by : Ole Peter Grell
Download or read book Health Care and Poor Relief in 18th and 19th Century Southern Europe written by Ole Peter Grell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poor and the sick-poor have always presented a problem to the governments and churches of Europe. Whose responsibility are they? Are they a wilful burden on the honest working population, or are they a necessary presence for the true Christian to live the true Christian life? In the 18th and 19th centuries what happened to the poor and the sick-poor in the north and south of Europe was different. In the north there occurred first the Reformation in the 16th century, which changed attitudes to the poor, and then the advent of industrialisation, with its far-reaching effects of pauperisation of people both in town and countryside. In the Catholic south, where industrialisation did not appear so soon, the Catholic Church introduced a programme of reform at all levels but along traditional lines. This included the founding of new orders dedicated to the care of the poor and sick, of new institutions within which to house and care for them. At all times it was taken for granted that it was a necessary aspect of being a Christian that one should give for the care of the needy, and that this was not the duty of the state or of secular institutions. The secularising movement did however reach the southern countries by way both of the Enlightenment and - more drastically - in the form of the Napoleonic invasions. But after the defeat of Napoleon, the Church reasserted its right to administer and control the support of the poor and sick, and this situation continued until 1900 in most areas. Moreover the effects of industrialisation and the concomitant increase in population did make itself felt in the south in the course of the 19th century, which put great stress on the institutions for poor relief and health care for the poor. All this is still relevant today, since the situations that governments and the Catholic Church found themselves confronted with, and the stark choices they had to make, are being replayed to some extent today. Who is responsible for the poor, who is to blame for their being poor? How should their poverty be relieved, how should the health care of the many be funded? These are still live issues today. While complete in itself the present volume also forms the fourth and last of a four-volume survey of health care and poor relief in Europe between 1500 and 1900, edited by Ole Peter Grell and Andrew Cunningham

This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social policy, as executed in western civilization, is apparently at a crossroads, with “forgotten” contradictions between the rich and the poor having once again become topical. The current economic and social crisis, including the crisis of the welfare state, raises the need to seek solutions from the past as well as the present. This volume brings together examples of social practice in the Central European region from the 19th century to the 1950s.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wie sah ländliche Armut in Europa aus? Konnte nicht jeder auf dem Land Tiere halten oder Beeren im Wald sammeln? Nimmt man nicht sogar heute noch an, dass Solidarität unter Landbewohnern sehr verbreitet ist? Historiker und Historikerinnen aus fünf europäischen Ländern skizzieren ein bislang vernachlässigtes Forschungsfeld: Thematisiert werden Kontinuitäten und Brüche in der ländlichen, im Vergleich zur städtischen Armenfürsorge ebenso wie konfessionelle und aristokratische Wohltätigkeit. Ein breites Spektrum an Quellen dient dazu, die Wahrnehmung von Armen und ihre Behandlung durch private und öffentliche Institutionen der Sozialfürsorge zu analysieren. Machtverhältnissen zwischen Männern und Frauen, Adel und Bauern oder Verwaltern und Bedürftigen wird besondere Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt. How did rural poverty look like in the European past? Could not everybody in the countryside keep chickens, or pick berries in the woods? Is not the solidarity of villagers commonly known even today? The volume draws together historians from five European countries to map out a field of research which has long been neglected by welfare as well as agricultural historians. Continuities and changes within rural as compared to urban poor relief, of ecclesiastic and of aristocratic charity are described. A wide range of sources is taken into account to show how the rural poor were perceived and treated by private and public institutions of social assistance. Power relations between men and women, aristocrats and peasantry, or administrators and the needy are especially focussed upon.
Book Synopsis Friedrich Pollock by : Philipp Lenhard
Download or read book Friedrich Pollock written by Philipp Lenhard and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-07-22 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The son of an industrialist who wanted to abolish private property. A Jew who didn’t want anything to do with Judaism. A professor who published little. An economist who squandered his wealth on the stock market. A communist who thought Marxism was anachronistic. And finally: a critical intellectual. When dealing with the political culture of the Weimar Republic, the development of Critical Theory and German-Jewish emigration to the USA, there is no way around Friedrich Pollock. Max Horkheimer’s companion and the founder of the Institute for Social Research in Frankfurt plays an important part in German-Jewish intellectual history as one of the most prominent representatives of Critical Theory. The present volume presents the first biography of a major but overlooked figure.
