Book Synopsis Across the Borders by : Günter Dinhobl
Download or read book Across the Borders written by Günter Dinhobl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now we have only had relatively narrow economic studies comparing investments in railways with investments in other fields of individual economies. 'Across the Borders' not only opens the door for fundamental new insights into a trans-national view of railway history, but also contributes to a breakthrough in the wider study of the subject, providing the first extensive historical investigation of the worldwide system of railway financing. This book provides a wide introduction to how financiers, governments and entrepreneurs in Europe managed to face the challenges of constructing and maintaining an integrated railway network, both in their own countries and their colonies. This volume offers analysis from a selection of experts exploring the trans-national investment policies of railway construction based on numerous historical case-studies. The chapters provide insight into the international opportunities that existed for railway financing, from the perspective of economic, social, transport and railway history. With contributions from authors from 19 countries the volume is a truly international work that will be of interest to academic researchers, museum staff, archivists, and anyone who has an interest in the history and development of railways.

Book Synopsis The Great Train Race by : Allan Mitchell
Download or read book The Great Train Race written by Allan Mitchell and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2000-09-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From their origins, railways produced an intense competition between the two major continental systems in France and Germany. Fitting a new technology into existing political institutions and social habits, these two nations became inexorably involved in industrial and commercial rivalry that eventually escalated into the armed conflict of 1914. Based on many years of research in French and German archives, this study examines the adaptation of railroads and steam engines from Britain to the continent of Europe after the Napoleonic age. A fascinating example of how the same technology, borrowed at the same time from the same source, was assimilated differently by the two continental powers, this book offers a groundbreaking analysis of the crossroads of technology and politics during the first Industrial Revolution.

Book Synopsis The Politics of Transport in Twentieth-century France by : Joseph Jones
Download or read book The Politics of Transport in Twentieth-century France written by Joseph Jones and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1984 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few aspects of economic development have had such a widespread or profound impact on the reshaping of contemporary France as transportation. As a result, transport policy has brought many of the major social forces into conflict. Monopolistic railway companies, closely aligned with the banks, combated the defenders of the regions and small towns. The fiercely independent truckers and barge-haulers, proponents of the small family firm, collided with the forces of the state. Apostles of the transatlantic gospel of free enterprise and technical progress clashed with supporters of a planned, socialist society.
Book Synopsis Tibet, le pays sacrifié by : Claude Arpi
Download or read book Tibet, le pays sacrifié written by Claude Arpi and published by Bouquineo. This book was released on 2011-02-21 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le 7 octobre 1950, l’Armée populaire de libération franchit le Yangtsé et anéantit les défenses tibétaines. À Lhassa, le gouvernement minimise l’invasion dans l’espoir de négocier avec la Chine de Mao, puis fait appel à l’ONU. Soutenu par un seul pays – le Salvador – sa demande d’inscrire la « question tibétaine » aux débats du Conseil de sécurité est ajournée. Voici la réédition de l’ouvrage de référence sur le destin politique du Tibet qui manquait au public francophone. L’auteur ne se contente pas de retracer les grandes étapes de l’histoire du Toit du monde et de montrer comment, depuis le Ve siècle jusqu’à l’occupation par la Chine communiste, le Tibet a toujours su préserver un équilibre entre ses puissants voisins. Il lève le voile sur les véritables raisons de la chute du Tibet. Les chapitres sur le rôle du Premier ministre indien, Nehru, et sur les atermoiements des pays occidentaux sont particulièrement éclairants. Grâce à ses recherches dans des archives indiennes, russes et américaines récemment ouvertes aux chercheurs, à ses nombreuses relations dans le monde diplomatique et militaire indien, grâce aussi à ses contacts tibétains – en particulier une longue amitié avec le dalaï-lama –, Claude Arpi nous livre la face cachée d’un drame toujours tragiquement d’actualité.

Book Synopsis Ordinary Workers, Vichy and the Holocaust by : Ludivine Broch
Download or read book Ordinary Workers, Vichy and the Holocaust written by Ludivine Broch and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-07 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Should French railwaymen during the Second World War be viewed as great resisters or collaborators in genocide? Ludivine Broch revisits histories of resistance, collaboration and deportation in Vichy France through the prism of the French railwaymen – the cheminots. De-sanctifying the idea of railwaymen as heroic saboteurs, Broch reveals the daily life of these workers who accommodated with the Vichy regime, cohabitated with the Germans and stole from their employer. Moreover, by intertwining the history of the working classes with Holocaust history, she highlights unexpected histories under Vichy and sensitive memories of the post-war period. Ultimately, this book bursts the myths of cheminot resistance and collaboration in the Holocaust, and reveals that there is more to their story than this. The cheminots fed both the French nation and the German military apparatus, exemplifying the complexities of personal, professional and political life under occupation.
