hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. DETAILS: fresh attractive copy, near fine dark green cloth with printed cover titles. KATTAGO, SIOBHAN. Ambiguous memory: the Nazi past and German national identity. Westport, Conn.: Praeger, 2001, later printing number line ending in 2, 196pp., . Examines official memories of National Socialism in the Federal Republic, the German Democratic Republic, and unified Germany during the 1980s-90s. Investigates the social mechanisms of West German internalization and East German universalization of the Nazi past by examining social frameworks and specific places of memory. Seeks to answer the following questions: How did memories of the Nazi past affect the national identity and legitimation of the FRG, the GDR, and unified Germany? How does public debate about the past affect what is remembered? What do memories and representations of the past tell us about the present and how do they possibly effect the future? Memories of the past provide insight into the society which remembers. The creation of postwar German national identities was not only based on a system of negative mirror-imaging and comparison between the two Germanies, but also on how Nazi Germany was remembered. Unified Germany is framed by a double past which entails a continuation of the West German framework of internationalization accompanied by the "newness" of the restored German nation. Places of memory, such as Bitburg, the "historians' debate, " the 50th anniversary commemoration of Kristallnacht, the renarration of Buchenwald, and the proposed Holocaust Memorial in Berlin are examples of the ambiguity of East, West, and unified German memory.

Paperback. Condición: New. Reintroducing Hannah Arendt connects Arendt's philosophical and political thought to social theory and the social sciences in the 21st century, as individuals experience profound social, political, and technological change.Though classifying herself as a political theorist sceptical of sociology and the social sciences, Arendt's critique of mass society shares much in common with perennial themes in social theory. Indeed, her reflections on the importance of the world and the power of stories, the prevalence of loneliness and alienation, statelessness, cynicism in politics, antisemitism, imperialism, totalitarianism, and the banality of evil mark her as one of the most original and provocative thinkers of the 20th century. Reintroducing Hannah Arendt links her focus on the unprecedented nature of totalitarianism with the importance of plurality, birth, freedom, responsibility, and new beginnings.In addition to outlining central themes in her published work, Siobhan Kattago argues for the acuity of Hannah Arendt's insights for understanding our century of polarised politics, post-truth, artificial intelligence, social media, and echo chambers. The volume will thus appeal to scholars and students of sociology, philosophy, social theory, and politics with interests in the thought of Hannah Arendt and its enduring significance.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Encountering the Past within the Present: Modern Experiences of Time examines different encounters with the past from within the present whether as commemoration, nostalgia, silence, ghostly haunting or combinations thereof. Taking its cue from Hannah Arendts definition of the present as a time span lying between past and future, the author reflects on the old philosophical question of how to live the good life not only with others who are physically with us but also with those whose presence is ghostly and liminal. While tradition may no longer command the same authority as it did in antiquity or the middle ages, individuals are by no means severed from the past. Rather, nostalgic longing for bygone times and traumatic preoccupation with painful historical events demonstrate the vitality of the past within the present. Divided into three parts, chapters examine ways in which the legacies of World War II, the Holocaust and communism have been remembered after 1945 and 1989. Maintaining a sustained reflection on the nexus of memory, modernity and time in tandem with ancient questions of responsibility for one another and the world, the volume contributes to the growing field of memory studies from a philosophical perspective. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology, social theory and philosophy with interests in collective memory and heritage. This volume reflects on the old philosophical question of how to live the good life, not only with others who are physically with us, but also with those, whose presence is ghostly and liminal.
