Book excerpt: Le destin méconnu du successeur d'Heydrich, un haut dignitaire nazi longtemps négligé mais terrifiant. En janvier 1943, six mois après la mort de Reinhard Heydrich, Ernst Kaltenbrunner, un Autrichien quasi inconnu en Allemagne, est désigné pour prendre la tête de l'Office principal de sûreté du Reich (RSHA) à Berlin. Ce dignitaire devient ainsi le chef du renseignement de l'État nazi et le numéro 2 de la SS après Himmler. Pourquoi Kaltenbrunner est-il si peu connu de nos jours, alors que les autres dirigeants du régime hitlérien, tels Goebbels ou Göring, font l'objet de nombreuses études ? Comment sa carrière a-t-elle pu être à ce point négligée, alors que ce haut fonctionnaire conduit la politique de terreur nazie entre 1943 et 1945 – années qui voient le régime se radicaliser et ses politiques criminelles dans le Reich et l'Europe occupée s'intensifier ? D'où vient la mise à l'écart dans la mémoire collective de cet homme pourtant jugé par le Tribunal international de Nuremberg et condamné à mort en octobre 1946 ? Pendant plusieurs années, Marie-Bénédicte Vincent a cherché à répondre à toutes ces questions en menant un véritable travail d'enquête en Allemagne, en Autriche et aux États-Unis. S'appuyant sur des sources de première main et exhumant des documents inédits, elle reconstitue ici la trajectoire personnelle du " petit Himmler d'Autriche ", en réalité choisi délibérément parce qu'il ne possède pas l'aura de son célèbre prédécesseur. À travers Kaltenbrunner, c'est aussi toute l'histoire de l'Autriche nazie – encore trop ignorée aujourd'hui – que l'historienne retrace. Une biographie éclairante et nécessaire.

Download or read book The International status of education about the Holocaust written by Carrier, Peter and published by UNESCO Publishing. This book was released on 2015-01-14 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do schools worldwide treat the Holocaust as a subject? In which countries does the Holocaust form part of classroom teaching? Are representations of the Holocaust always accurate, balanced and unprejudiced in curricula and textbooks? This study, carried out by UNESCO and the Georg Eckert Institute for International Textbook Research, compares for the first time representations of the Holocaust in school textbooks and national curricula. Drawing on data which includes countries in which there exists no or little information about representations of the Holocaust, the study shows where the Holocaust is established in official guidelines, and contains a close textbook study, focusing on the comprehensiveness and accuracy of representations and historical narratives. The book highlights evolving practices worldwide and thus provides education stakeholders with comprehensive documentation about current trends in curricula directives and textbook representations of the Holocaust. It further formulates recommendations that will help policy-makers provide the educational means by which pupils may develop Holocaust literacy.

Download or read book Bishop George Bell written by George Kennedy Allen Bell and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bishop George Bell always felt that the Church must endeavour to meet the problems of the modern world. He was thus foremost in applying the precepts of the Christian faith to national and international issues. George Bell very often raised his voice in the House of Lords (of which he was a distinguished member from December 1937 till January 1958) against class and racial hatred, against war, and against totalitarianism, and spoke for the innocent and helpless victims of persecution. Complete texts of all Bell's House of Lords speeches are presented here, published for the first time in one volume. The issues that Bell tackled are, in essence, still relevant today. This volume also includes unpublished correspondence between George Bell and Rudolf Hess, Hitler's deputy. After the National Socialists came to power in Germany, Bell, as a committed Christian, felt that he had to act in defence of the German Church, which the Nazis were eager to destroy. The Bishop made strenuous efforts to contact people in power in Germany, people who, he knew, took decisions with momentous consequences. Rudolf Hess was one of them.

Download or read book Ethnopsychiatry written by Henri F. Ellenberger and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2020-12-17 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the relationship between culture and mental health? Is mental illness universal? Are symptoms of mental disorders different across social groups? In the late 1960s these questions gave rise to a groundbreaking series of articles written by the psychiatrist Henri Ellenberger, who would go on to publish The Discovery of the Unconscious: The History and Evolution of Dynamic Psychiatry in 1970. Fifty years later they are presented for the first time in English translation, introduced by historian of science Emmanuel Delille. Ethnopsychiatry explores one of the most controversial subjects in psychiatric research: the role of culture in mental health. In his articles Ellenberger addressed the complex clinical and theoretical problems of cultural specificity in mental illness, collective psychoses, differentiations within cultural groups, and biocultural interactions. He was especially attuned to the correlations between rapid cultural transformations in postwar society, urbanization, and the frequency of mental illness. Ellenberger drew from a vast and varied primary and secondary literature in several languages, as well as from his own findings in clinical practice, which included work with indigenous peoples. In analyzing Ellenberger's contributions Delille unveils the transnational and interdisciplinary origins of transcultural psychiatry, which grew out of knowledge networks that crisscrossed the globe. The book has a rich selection of appendices, including Ellenberger's lecture notes on a case of peyote addiction and his correspondence with anthropologist and psychoanalyst Georges Devereux. These original essays, and their masterful contextualization, provide a compelling introduction to the foundations of transcultural psychiatry and one of its most distinguished and prolific researchers.

Download or read book Britain and the Vatican During the Second World War written by Owen Chadwick and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1988-06-24 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book studies the use made by the British government of its envoy, immured inside the Vatican from 1940 to 1944, and what the envoy made of such opportunities during the Second World War to help the Allied cause. We see the Vatican, the Fascist Italy, from 'inside', and so gain a new and rare perspective into the predicament of the papacy. Owen Chadwick gives insight into the workings of the Vatican, including such questions as the struggle to keep Italy out of the war, the relations between the Vatican and the Fascist government, the use which the British sought to make of Vatican radio, the question of condemning atrocities, the bombing of Rome, the fall of Fascism, the armistice between the Allies and Italy, the German occupation of Rome, and the escape line for British prisoners of war. The author has used several groups of hitherto unexplored archives, and makes a fresh contribution both to the history of the Second World War and to the modern history of the papacy.
