Download or read book Confessionalization in Europe 1555 1700 written by John M. Headley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confessionalization in Europe, 1555-1700 brings together a closely-focused set of essays by leading scholars from the USA, UK, and Europe, in memory of Bodo Nischan. They address what historians of the Early Modern period have recently come to define as the pre-eminent issue in the history of the Reformation, as they turn their emphases from the earlier part of the 16th century to the relatively neglected latter half of the century. By the time of his death Bodo Nischan had distinguished himself as a significant contributor to this central problem of confessionalization. The concept involves the practice of 'confession building' which in relation to that of 'social disciplining', promoted interrelated processes contributing decisively to the formation of confessional churches, greater social cohesion, and the emergence of the Early Modern absolute state. Many religious practices, earlier considered as adiaphora (indifferent matters), now became treated as marks of demarcation between the emerging Protestant confessional churches and at the same time politicized as the early modern state sought to impose greater social control. Through the analysis of such liturgical, ritual, and ceremonial practices Nischan helped show the way towards a better understanding of the Reformation's engagement with the people. These are the themes treated in this volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der Erste Weltkrieg und die nachfolgende Friedensordnung veränderten historisch gewachsene Regionen und Siedlungsgemeinschaften in Ostmittel-, Ost- und Südosteuropa nachhaltig. Während lang gehegte nationale Aspirationen verwirklicht werden konnten und die neuen Staatsvölker in Aufbruchstimmung versetzten, wurden vormalige Staatsvölker zu Minderheiten und begriffen ihre neue Situation als krisenhaft; dies galt insbesondere für die Deutschen im östlichen Europa. Die Auseinandersetzung mit dem Krieg und seinen Auswirkungen in Politik, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft prägte die Zwischenkriegszeit. Aufbruchstimmung und Krisenerfahrung spiegelten sich im Widerstreit zwischen modernen Bestrebungen und rückwärtsgewandten Ideologien - vor allem auch auf kulturellem Gebiet in Literatur, Architektur, bildender Kunst, in Film, Theater und Wissenschaften. In Fallstudien analysieren die Beiträge des vorliegenden Bandes individuell geformte, gesellschaftlich bedingte sowie staatlich gelenkte Strategien der Auseinandersetzung mit der Nachkriegssituation in Ostmitteleuropa.

Download or read book The Saved and the Damned written by Prof Thomas (Professor of Church History Kaufmann, University of Goettingen) and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-01-26 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Kaufmann, the leading European scholar of the Reformation, argues that the main motivations behind the Reformation rest in religion itself. The Reformation began far from Europe's traditional political, economic, and cultural power centres, and yet it threw the whole continent into turmoil. There has been intense speculation over the last century focusing on the political and social causes that lay at the root of this revolution. Thomas Kaufmann, one of the world's leading experts on the Reformation, sees the most important drivers for what happened in religion itself. The reformers were principally concerned with the question of salvation. It could all have ended with the pope's condemnation of Luther and his teaching. But Luther believed the pope was condemned to eternal damnation, and this was the root cause of the great split to come. Hatred of the damned drove people to take up arms, while countless numbers left their homes far behind and carried the Reformation message to the furthest corners of the earth in the hope of salvation. In The Saved and the Damned, Thomas Kaufmann presents a dramatic overview of how Europe was transformed by the seismic shock of the Reformation--and of how its aftershocks reverberate right down to the present day.

Download or read book Challenges to Consensual Politics written by Daniele Caramani and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2005 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book analyses the transnational Alpine region where historical, social, and geo-economic specificities have led to a distinctive type of democracy and identity. Differentialist identities, multi-level consociational accommodation, and corporatist intermediation are typical features of this region's «consensual politics», and the process of European integration adds further to this complexity. These forms of consensual politics are challenged today by large and persistent populist parties that express strong anti-elitist sentiments, local identities, and Euro-sceptic attitudes. The book examines the defensive reaction of populist parties to the perceived threats of open borders (multi-culturalism and cheap labour) and elite negotiations (at all levels of governance). Protest attitudes translate into alternative views of European integration favouring proposals for an anti-assimilationist and labour protective «Fortress», as well as a religiously-based «Europe of the People». The book considers the possibility of a potential cleavage in the incipient European party system through alliances of «losers of integration» cutting across the left-right alignment and overlapping with ethno-linguistic, centre-periphery, religious, and rural-urban factors that survived in the Alpine region more than elsewhere. An empirical analysis by a group of international experts focuses on the Alpine areas of Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Slovenia, and Switzerland in which parties like FPÖ, CSU, Lega Nord, and Schweizerische Volkspartei have recently become crucial actors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das Buch beleuchtet eine bisher erst wenig aufgearbeitete Zwischenphase der europäischen Integrationsgeschichte. Nach der in den 1950er und 1960er Jahren erfolgten Ingangsetzung von Montanunion, EWG und Atomgemeinschaft setzte die EG auf der Haager Konferenz im Dezember 1969 neue Ziele: eine gemeinsame Währung, eine europäische Außenpolitik, die Erweiterung der Mitgliedschaften, die Verringerung des "demokratischen Defizits", insgesamt den Übegang von einer Wirtschaftsgemeinschaft zu einer politischen Union. Nach einem Wort Gaston Thorns, des luxemburgischen Präsidenten der EG-Kommission, markierten die 1970er Jahre einen "Aufbruch zum Europa der zweiten Generation".
Download or read book Transnational Socialist Networks in the 1970s written by Christian Salm and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transnational Socialist Networks in the 1970s argues that western European socialist parties' transnational cooperation across national borders significantly influenced politics and policy-making in what was the European Communities (EC). It focuses on the network-like informal structures that characterised transnational cooperation between the party members and leaders of different socialist parties involved in European affairs. Taking the example of two case studies, namely EC development aid policy and EC southern enlargement policy, the book demonstrates that the socialist parties strengthened their informal transnational network structures for the purposes of debating ideological and programmatic issues and finding policy solutions to common challenges in both policy fields. Moreover, it shows that the networks developed various functions to influence European governance. Against this background, the analysis in this book makes not only a significant contribution to the study of transnational networks of western European socialist parties and the history of European integration, but also adds to the understanding of the role of transnational networks in European politics and policy-making.
Download or read book In the Shadow of Savage Wolves written by Sigrun Haude and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-01-10 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the multifaceted reactions of political and religious leaders to the Anabaptist reign in Münster (1534-1535). It takes as its point of departure Protestant Strasbourg, Catholic Cologne, as well as the Rhineland, and then broadens the perspective to imperial estates and the empire. The author analyzes the representations of the Münsterites and juxtaposes the fierce language with the actions that were taken to eliminate the Anabaptist menace at home and in Münster. The book is particularly important for scholars of Catholic Reform, of the empire and of confessionalization, of Cologne and Strasbourg, and of Anabaptism.
Download or read book There are Two German States and Two Must Remain written by Deborah Cuccia and published by Georg Olms Verlag. This book was released on 2019 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the night of 9 November the images of thousands of Eastern Germans pouring into Berlin security checkpoints at Bernauerstraße and West Berliners knocking the first brick out of the Wall literally travelled around the world. More than any other frontier, the division of Berlin as its physical representation epitomized in peoples mind the ultimate sign of the division of Europe into spheres of influence. More than any other event in Central Eastern Europe, the Berlin Walls demolition contributed to reshape both geographical maps and ideological camps. It is, therefore, not in the least surprising that these events captured the attention of millions of Europeans, ranging from present-day observers to prominent experts. Still, throughout the years, the main research focus has been either on the inner German dynamics or on the role played by the Superpowers. With the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Wall in the offing and an apparent creeping estrangement between Italy and Germany making the front page, the time is ripe for providing deeper insights into the reactions arising in Italy from the German events. How did the Italian vision of the German Question evolve? How did Rome perceive and react to the process leading to German unity? What kind of tools had the European integration process and the evolution of the Italian-German relations? How did Rome cope with the challenge issued by this acceleration of history? In answering these questions, the book goes far beyond the limitations imposed by a traditional diplomatic and foreign policy approach, embracing also the economic and cultural levels, as well as the mass media. The year 1989 was a test of the level of maturity attained by the Italian-German couple, which casts a long shadow that goes far beyond their respective national borders.
