Автор: Cameron, Sarah Название: The hungry steppe ISBN: 1501752014 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781501752018 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 23370.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
The Hungry Steppe examines one of the most heinous crimes of the Stalinist regime, the Kazakh famine of 1930–33. More than 1.5 million people perished in this famine, a quarter of Kazakhstan's population, and the crisis transformed a territory the size of continental Europe. Yet the story of this famine has remained mostly hidden from view. Drawing upon state and Communist party documents, as well as oral history and memoir accounts in Russian and in Kazakh, Sarah Cameron reveals this brutal story and its devastating consequences for Kazakh society.
Through the most violent of means the Kazakh famine created Soviet Kazakhstan, a stable territory with clearly delineated boundaries that was an integral part of the Soviet economic system; and it forged a new Kazakh national identity. But this state-driven modernization project was uneven. Ultimately, Cameron finds, neither Kazakhstan nor Kazakhs themselves were integrated into the Soviet system in precisely the ways that Moscow had originally hoped. The experience of the famine scarred the republic for the remainder of the Soviet era and shaped its transformation into an independent nation in 1991.
Cameron uses her history of the Kazakh famine to overturn several assumptions about violence, modernization, and nation-making under Stalin, highlighting, in particular, the creation of a new Kazakh national identity, and how environmental factors shaped Soviet development. Ultimately, The Hungry Steppe depicts the Soviet regime and its disastrous policies in a new and unusual light.

Автор: Papazian Roupen Название: The Armenian Genocide: Myth or Reality?

Описание: This work of nonfiction delves into the historical context of the Armenian Genocide to examine the nature of the events that occurred in the Ottoman Empire shortly after the dawn of the 20th century. The main purpose of this study is to present the issue in question--that is, the Armenian Genocide--under new prospects, using a different approach in the analysis of the events and factual material related to the Great Crime, with an emphasis on the sociopolitical situation in the Ottoman Empire until World War I as well as the leading sentiments among Young Turk circles with regard to the Armenian Question. At the same time, detailed scrutiny was applied in determining the Armenian sociological profile, with respect to Armenians' status as a subjugated minority and in relation to their aspirations for self-determination and administrative autonomy. The quest has always been to establish a link between the misconduct of the Turkish government--its social, military, and ideological justification under the light of the ultranationalistic and geopolitical concepts of the Ittihadist movement--and the Nazi regime, with respective historical data. This parallel was widely used as a juxtaposition of similar situations to establish a pattern of precedence and continuity of this historical phenomenon of mass offense against humanity and collective guilt.This voluminous work starts with a circumstantial preface--an observation of the matter of the Genocide, as applicable to the Armenian reality and its impact on the Armenian nation; the methodology of the events and quarry used; and counterpoise of the obsolete perception of the thesis that "bygones are bygones" to the idea of continuous pursuit of the matter on a scientific basis and in conjunction with the historical veracity.

Since the 1970s West German historiography has been one of the main arenas of international comparative history. It has produced important empirical studies particularly in social history as well as methodological and theoretical reflections on comparative history. During the last twenty years however, this approach has felt pressure from two sources: cultural historical approaches, which stress microhistory and the construction of cultural transfer on the one hand, global history and transnational approaches with emphasis on connected history on the other. This volume introduces the reader to some of the major methodological debates and to recent empirical research of German historians, who do comparative and transnational work.
