Ishikawa Sanshirō’s Geographical Imagination
Transnational Anarchism and the Reconfiguration of Everyday Life in Early Twentieth-Century Japan
Paperback || Nadine Willems || Leiden University Press
In modern Japan, anti-establishment ideas have related in many ways to Japan’s capitalist development and industrialisation. Activist and intellectual Ishikawa Sanshirō exemplifies this imagination, connecting European and Japanese thought during the first decades of the twentieth century. This book investigates the emergence of a strand of non-violent anarchism, reassessing in particular the role of geographical thought in modern Japan as both a vehicle of political dissent and a basis fo...

Horthy and the battle for the Hungarian nation state
The source of anti-European sentiment in Hungary
Paperback || Perry Pierik || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
Hungary rose as a nation state after the First World War, from the ashes of the Dual Monarchy. State regent and admiral without a fleet, Miklós Horthy, played a crucial role herein. The path to independence was far from simple for the Hungarians. Shortly after the First World War the communists staged a coup and the Entente Powers, and in particular the Pan-Europeans amongst them, tried thereafter to reinstate the Habsburg Empire.
This put Horthy, as former wing adjutant of the Austro-Hunga...

Opportunities, challenges, and future perspectives of people-centered approaches in dynamic historic urban landscapes

Struggle for the Scheldt 1944
the crucial battle for Western Europe
2024 || Paperback || R.A.B. Bruijns || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
The battle of the Scheldt is often seen as a side-show, an unglamorous campaign of months of hard fighting. This image needs to change. The Scheldt was at the heart of the German strategy to keep the Allies at bay, and its control was essential for the Allied effort to push into Germany. In this book the battle is analysed from all sides (including the civilians!) and from all perspectives - land, air and sea. It highlights often forgotten but important efforts, like the Allied anti-aircraft ...

FINALIST FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL WRITING 2022
'Pacey and potentially revolutionary' Sunday Times

The Transatlantic Era (1989-2020) in Documents and Speeches
2021 || Paperback || Bram Boxhoorn e.a. || Taylor & Francis
There is still a gap in how the period after 1989-1991 is conceptualised. The proposed book's challenging designation of the 'transatlantic era' as the motif for 1989-2020 enables the reader to think differently about the period we have been living through. The separation of the 1989-2020 period into three clearly marked-out decades works well for structuring the book, providing a clear overview and supportive base for the book's principal argument.
Accessible for BA and MA students. Makes fu...
