Gutsherren – Bauern – Broker Die ostelbische Agrargesellschaft in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts
Authors: Wagner Patrick
Published: February 2015

Landlords – Peasants – Brokers. East Elbian Agrarian Society in the Second Half of the Nineteenth Century

The power relations between noble or middle class estate holders, farmers, and the Prussian bureaucracy changed markedly as a consequence of the economic modernization process instigated by the agrarian reforms at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Up until the beginning of the 1870s, the disintegration of the villages and noble landholding led to the end of the estate system and to a notable increase in the power of the local representatives of the Prussian government, above all the county administrator (Landrat). After the reforms of the county and provincial administrations of 1872 and 1875, which strengthened the farmer and middle-class electorates, the Landrat developed into the organizer of conservative majority electorates loyal to the government and into the most important representative of large landholding interests. The farmers were tied into this system of bureaucratic clientelism through tax advantages, subventions, and active state policies regarding the modernization of the infrastructure of agrarian districts. The Prussian Landrat became the dominant broker between the nation state and agrarian society, which was increasingly marginalized in the national context by rapid industrialization. A constellation of powers ensued comparable to the mediating systems, which were established at the same time in the Mediterranean lands.
Génocide. Origines, enjeux et usages d'un concept
Authors: Bruneteau Bernard
Published: February 2015

Genocide. Origins, Challenges, and Applications of the Concept

After a long period of intellectual formation, the concept of genocide was introduced by Raphael Lemkin in 1944. It suffers, however, from the vagueness of the official definition established by the UN Convention in 1948. That is why this category of crime has been instrumentalized by widely different groups trying to be acknowledged as historical victims, whether these rights were real or not. Despite increasing controversy about problems of collective memory, the field of «genocide studies» has proven to be especially dynamic since the 1990s. The notion of «genocidal process» has become a focus of attention that allows the combination of anthropological, sociological and historical approaches. The question about the relation between genocide and war, which has become increasingly significant for historians, permits the conclusion that the First World War and the «minority question» led to a new sense of justice regarding «crimes against humanities». Although it may seem that Lemkin was influenced by the tragic fate of the Armenian and Jewish peoples, it is nonetheless necessary to discuss the genocidal character of other events, like colonial massacres, Stalinist policy, or ethnic cleansing.
Ein gescheitertes Experiment? Die Allgemeine Wehrpflicht in der multiethnischen Armee der Habsburgermonarchie
Authors: Hämmerle Christa
Published: February 2015

A Failed Experiment? Conscription in the Multi-Ethnic Army of the Habsburg Monarchy

The article first looks at public military debates around 1900 which focused on the implementation of universal conscription in Austria-Hungary and concentrated on ethnic tensions within the empire. Ethnic conflicts were increasingly made responsible for the erosion of the Habsburg dual monarchy's foundations and its joint military. Against this background, the introduction and organisation of universal conscription since 1868 are analysed with a particular focus on the regulations set up to respond to the multi-ethnic structure of the Austrian-Hungarian army. The analysis continues with some aspects that reveal the social acceptance of the new recruiting system and led to very different reactions in the various regions of the monarchy. As a result the factors behind the problems and limits in implementing universal conscription transcended the multi-ethnic structures of Austria-Hungary. Thus multi-ethnicity was by no means the only cause of the problems. Only in combination with other categories such as religion, class, gender or social inequality, ethnicity could develop a disintegrative effect. However, this disintegrative impact remained limited in most territories of the Habsburg monarchy and could not challenge the general acceptance of universal conscription during the First World War.
Technologische Innovation und transnationale Netzwerke: Europa zwischen den Weltkriegen
Authors: Kohlrausch Martin
Published: February 2015

Technological Innovation and Transnational Networks: Europe between the Wars

The article sketches the historiography on the transfer of knowledge with a focus on the Interwar period. It stresses the need to analyse the cultural element of the exchange of knowledge beyond a history of innovation and transfer in the narrower sense. Three interrelated developments, which in part determine each other, are treated with particular attention. First, the general growth of international exchange and its altered forms through advances in institutionalisation. Second this process was directly interlinked with the emergence of new channels and fora of communication. Third, one can observe a multilayered ‹politicisation› of expertise, which was closely linked with the First World War and in particular with the rise of authoritarian and totalitarian regimes in the 1920s and 1930s. The articles assembled in this issue are particularly qualified to analyse these problems as each of them covers at least two countries and all of them are transnational in scope.
Schleichwege im Sozialismus. Einleitung
Authors: Borodziej Włodzimierz , Kochanowski Jerzy , von Puttkamer Joachim
Published: February 2015

Hidden Paths within Socialism. Introduction

«Hidden Paths within Socialism» were used by ordinary citizens, especially by tourists and workers from the socialist «brother states». Borders within the socialist bloc were semi-open. The states tried, however, to control and regulate transnational contacts. They foundered time and time again on the «self-assertion» of their own and foreign citizens, who opened up informal areas of freedom. These were based on their wants and withstood the regulating rage. This journal examines the predominantly apolitical, everyday contacts in the GDR, Poland, ČSSR and Hungary between the mid-1950s and 1989.
Der Thatcher-Konsens. Der Einsturz der britischen Nachkriegsordnung in den 1970er und 1980er Jahren
Authors: Geppert Dominik
Published: February 2015

Thatcher's Consensus. The Collapse of British Post-war Order in the 1970s and 1980s

This article examines the political, economic and social transformations in Great Britain during the 1970s and 1980s under the aspect of whether its development was unique in the twentieth century. The article argues that, in Great Britain, the Europe-wide structural crisis during these two decades was not limited to smaller or larger adaptations in economic, social and constitutional policies, as it was elsewhere, but led to a radical rearrangement of the political system of coordinates in the form of Thatcherism. The fact that the upheavals it induced in the economic system and in society took place within the established institutions and rules of the uncodified constitution belongs to the most remarkable aspects of Thatcherism. During her tenure as Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher largely succeeded in her goal of revolutionising the British economic and social order – even some times in ways other than she and her advisors intended. Concurrently, Thatcherism of brought about the change from a consensual to a confrontational mode of problemsolving within the existing constitutional framework. Many contemporaries perceived this as nothing less than a shift in the political system.
Umbau am «Modell Deutschland». Sozialer Wandel, ökonomische Krise und wohlfahrtsstaatliche Reformpolitik in der Bundesrepublik «nach dem Boom»
Authors: Süß Winfried
Published: February 2015

Reforming the «German Model»: Social Change, Economic Crisis and the Politics of the Welfare State in the Federal Republic «after the Boom»

The triad of changes in values and social and economic structures has altered the possible reach of social policies profoundly. In this context, this article examines perception of post-industrial transformations and their discursive processing of and political reaction to through social policy in the 1970s and 1980s. While its discursive framework changed significantly through its intensified focus on social inequality, the problem – solving patterns of social policy remained remarkably stable. Elements of continuity between socialist-liberal and Christian-liberal social policy thus outweighed these different accentuations. A policy of fiscal consolidation, which was successful in European comparison, started already in the mid-1970s. Both governments, however, preferred interventions that were effective only for a short term. These were mostly motivated by budgetary policy. This emphasised the problematic peculiarities within the framework of the German welfare state model, for instance the high burden of labour costs. It also delayed the adaptation of welfare state institutions to changed socio-structural circumstances result for example from the pluralisation of occupational careers and family structures.
Organisierte Modernität? Konstruktion und Konzeption der Massenkultur in Frankreich

Organised Modernity? Construction and Conception of Mass Culture in France

Since the end of the nineteenth century, the rise of mass culture in France was an ambivalent experience giving stimulation to attempts of scientific re-conceptualisation and regulation of society. On the basis of this observation, the article analyses scientistic descriptions of mass culture and cultural policies as conceptions of order and practices of ordering. At the turn of the 19th century, the early French theories of mass culture remained post-liberal compromises. After the end of the Second World War, intellectuals and cultural technocrats developed more large-scale projects of collective renewal by dirigisme. In the 1970s, the thus developed configuration of experts and cultural planning of the state suffered a serious crisis raising the questioning of the organisability of the modernity of massculture. The French history of the perception of mass culture therefore appears as a history of cultural engineering and its limitations.

Twisted Roots. Intellectuals, Mass Culture and Political Culture in Italy

The article examines the rise of mass culture in Italy from the mid-nineteenth century to the early twentieth century. It particularly analyses the literary production, politically organised cultural offering as well as the role of the intellectuals. Despite the high illiteracy rate (until the beginning of the twentieth century higher than in other countries), different mass-cultural spheres developed throughout Western Europe. The socialist and Catholic communities decisively contributed to this development. With the help of their own publications and distribution channels as well as libraries, they encouraged the population to read. Simultaneously, intellectuals and writers with precarious social situations hoped for new fields of activity in the emerging cultural industries. The gap between these expectations and modern reality led many of these observers to criticise massculture. In some cases, it even led to political radicalisation and rapprochement with the fascist movement.

Eugenics in Switzerland before and after 1945 - a Continuum?

1945 cannot be considered as a turning point for Switzerland's history of eugenics. Quite unnoticed, Swiss eugenical measures – including sterilisations, abortions, (marriage-) counselling, marriage prohibitions and naturalisations – remained effective even after 1945. This is also due to the fact that sterilisations could only be realized with the formal authorisation of the concerned subjects. They were considered as individual or rather medical decisions taken by the «patient» and the doctor without any governmental instructions or legal regulations. Nevertheless, some of these authorisations were extorted. However, they were not identified as eugenical in Switzerland because Nazi Germany's compulsory sterilisations and mass murders were considered as «standards» for eugenical measures.

Borders and Limits of Exclusion/Inclusion. Spatial Regimes for Poor People and Strangers in Modern Europe

Taking up the debate about the active role of space (both as a physical unit and a mental map) in shaping social relations, the article defines four elementary forms of using space for the sake of excluding or including strangers or poor people in society in Modern Europe. «The settlement» or belonging to a local community, the border and pass controls, the places of confinement and the ghetto are discussed as four structures of longue durée that have even survived the transformations European societies underwent since 1800. But industrialisation, nation building and Welfare regimes have altered their functions and added mainly two new spatial structures to these established spatial regimes. The homogeneous national container space, the nation-state, has given more or less equal rights and living standards for poor or strangers on the territory of the nation state. The spatial segregation has become the most effective but politically and morally contested form of both excluding and including social groups along lines of class, race or ethnicity in European cities since the nineteenth century.
Metropolenkonkurrenz. Die Weltausstellungen in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts
Authors: Lenger Friedrich

Competing Metropolises. The World Expositions of the Second Half of the Nineteenth Century

The article analyses the world expositions from 1851 to 1900 as representations of western modernity and focuses on three of its dimensions: The first one is crystallised in the dominance of modern machinery as symbol of the industrial era in the expositions themselves. The second concerns the rise of mass culture and mass tourism already obvious in the earliest expositions but usually attributed by researchers to an «organised modernity» of later days. And finally the negotiations over standards of the modern city are considered which were pushed forward by the intertwinement of expositions and urban development. With respect to all three dimensions the tension between the claim of universality manifest in these celebrations of western modernity and the representation of the non-western world at the world fairs is of special interest.
Recent Historiography of the First World War
Authors: Kramer Alan
Published: February 2015

The first part (JMEH 12 (2014) 1, 5-28) dealt with the internationalisation of First World War historiography and transnational history. It asked why the war is almost entirely unknown in the history and memory of some states, while it has powerful symbolic value in others. It provided an overview of the literature on the origins, combat on the Western Front, other fronts and non-combatants. It located the international historiography since 2001 within the long-term context.

Inside the Humanitarian Cloud: Causes and Motivations to Help Friends and Strangers

This introductory essay examines humanitarianism as both a concept and a practice. The piece discusses the tropes and ideas that sustained the construction of humanitarian causes – from compassion and solidarity to moral outrage. It subsequently focuses on strategies and mechanisms that sustained humanitarian campaigns, in particular the use of «information politics». Finally, it sheds light on the ways in which activists viewed the objects of their campaigns. In this context, the tension between identification and self-interest emerges as a major theme. The essay seeks to capture the different features of humanitarianism and its protagonists through the metaphor of the «humanitarian cloud».

Self-Organized Maps on Continuous Bump Attractors
Authors: Соловьева К.П. , Solovyeva K.P.
Published: February 2015

In this article, we describe a simple binary neuron system, which implements a self-organized map. The system consists of R input neurons (R receptors), and N output neurons of a recurrent
neural network. The neural network has a quasi-continuous set of attractor states (one-dimensional “bump attractor”). Due to the dynamics of the network, each external signal (i.e. activity
state of receptors) imposes transition of the recurrent network into one of its stable states (points of its attractor). That makes our system different from the “winner takes all”
construction of T.Kohonen. In case, when there is a one-dimensional cyclical manifold of external signals in R-dimensional input space, and the recurrent neural network presents a complete
ring of neurons with local excitatory connections, there exists a process of learning of connections between the receptors and the neurons of the recurrent network, which enables
a topologically correct mapping of input signals into the stable states of the neural network. The convergence rate of learning and the role of noises and other factors affecting
the described phenomenon has been evaluated in computational simulations.
Incremental Validity of Achievement Goals in Predicting Subjective Well-Being Among University Students
Authors: Chen Chen
Published: February 2015

This study examined the role that achievement goals may play in predicting subjective well-being, particularly the extra contribution of achievement goals beyond that of personality traits. There were 371 university students from Nanjing, China (mean age = 20.67, SD = 1.30) who participated in the study and reported their achievement goals, the Big Five personality traits, and subjective well-being (including life satisfaction, positive, and negative affect). Results revealed that mastery-approach goals positively and significantly predicted life satisfaction; mastery-approach and performance-approach goals positively, whereas performance-avoidance goals negatively significantly predicted positive affect. When working with the Big Five personality traits, mastery-approach goals and performance-approach goals showed their added contributions to life satisfaction and positive affect, respectively. These results highlight the importance of considering achievement goals when explaining individual differences of subjective well-being as well as the importance of taking subjective well-being into account when understanding the nature of achievement goals.
Intellectual Styles: Their Associations and Their Relationships to Ability and Personality
Authors: Xie Qiuzhi
Published: February 2015

This study investigated the associations among intellectual styles in the three approaches: cognition-centered, personality-centered, and activity-centered approaches. Field dependence-independence, psychological types, and learning approaches were respectively selected as the representatives of the cognition-centered, personality-centered, and activity-centered styles. This study also explored the relationships between intellectual styles and ability as well as between intellectual styles and personality. The participants in this study were 510 students in a Chinese university. The results showed that the three style constructs did not significantly share common variance, implying that styles in different approaches likely represent different rather than similar constructs. Also, field dependence-independence strongly associated with ability, whereas psychological types and learning approaches strongly associated with personality. This suggested that different style constructs relate to ability and personality to different degree: cognition-centered styles may closely relate to ability, whereas personality-centered and activity-centered styles may highly relate to personality.

Published: February 2015

A series of new 5H-pyridobenzazepine and pyridobenzothiepine derivatives was
synthesized by Pd-catalyzed formation of C-N and C-S bonds. All synthesized
compounds were tested for their in vitro antimicrobial activity. The
5H-pyridobenzazepine derivatives showed better antibacterial and antifungal
activity than corresponding 5H-dipyridoazepine analogs. Among the
synthesized azepines, derivative 8 displayed potent activity against tested
bacteria (MIC = 39-78 ?g/mL), while azepine 12 showed promising antifungal
activity (MIC = 156-313 ?g/mL). The synthesized thiepine derivatives
exhibited weak antibacterial activity, but showed pronounced antifungal
activity.

Published: February 2015

Objective

To determine the influence of early pain relief for patients with suspected appendicitis on the diagnostic performance of surgical residents.

Methods

A prospective randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted for patients with suspected appendicitis. The patients were randomized to receive placebo (normal saline intravenous [IV]) infusions over 5 minutes or the study drug (morphine 5 mg IV). All of the clinical evaluations by surgical residents were performed 30 minutes after administration of the study drug or placebo. After obtaining the clinical probability of appendicitis, as determined by the surgical residents, abdominal computed tomography was performed. The primary objective was to compare the influence of IV morphine on the ability of surgical residents to diagnose appendicitis.

Results

A total of 213 patients with suspected appendicitis were enrolled. Of these patients, 107 patients received morphine, and 106 patients received placebo saline. The negative appendectomy percentages in each group were similar (3.8% in the placebo group and 3.2% in the pain control group, p=0.62). The perforation rates in each group were also similar (18.9% in the placebo group and 14.3% in the pain control group, p=0.75). Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that the overall diagnostic accuracy in each group was similar (the area under the curve of the placebo group and the pain control group was 0.63 v. 0.61, respectively, p=0.81).

Conclusions

Early pain control in patients with suspected appendicitis does not affect the diagnostic performance of surgical residents.
Bronchodilator and steroid use for the management of bronchiolitis in Canadian pediatric emergency departments
Authors: Plint Amy C. , Grenon Renee , Klassen Terry P. , Johnson David W.
Published: February 2015

Objective

Given the recent publication of several large trials and systematic reviews, we undertook a study of the current management of bronchiolitis in Canadian pediatric emergency departments (EDs) and explored physicians’ rationale for their treatment decisions. The overarching purpose of this study was to assist in planning a future trial of combined epinephrine and dexamethasone for bronchiolitis.

Methods

Physicians in the Pediatric Emergency Research Canada (PERC) database received an 18-item electronic survey. A modified Dillman method was used.

Results

Of the 271 physicians surveyed, 191 (70.1%) responded. The majority (120 of 271; 66.5%) reported ‘‘typically’’ giving a bronchodilator trial in the ED, with respondents almost evenly divided between treatment with salbutamol (n=62) and treatment with epinephrine (n=61). Of those who use salbutamol, 77.4% indicated that they prefer it because it can be prescribed for home use. Of those who use epinephrine, 80.3% indicated that they believe the medical literature supports its benefit over salbutamol. Few participants (2.6%) reported ‘‘always’’ using steroids, whereas the majority (62.8%) reported ‘‘sometimes’’ using them. The most common factor reported to influence steroid use was illness severity (73.3%). The majority (60.5%) reported that if corticosteroids were beneficial in bronchiolitis, they prefered treatment with a single dose in the ED as opposed to a multiday course.

Conclusions

Our results indicate that physicians practicing in Canadian pediatric EDs commonly use bronchodilators to manage bronchiolitis but use corticosteroids less commonly. They appear to be uncomfortable using corticosteroids, particularly longer courses, and have a stated preference for a single dose. Any future trial examining the role of corticosteroids in bronchiolitis should carefully consider the issue of steroid dosage.
Normal renal sonogram identifies renal colic patients at low risk for urologic intervention: a prospective cohort study

Published: February 2015

Introduction

Determining which patients with ureterolithiasis are likely to require urologic intervention is a common challenge in the emergency department (ED). The objective was to determine if normal renal sonogram could identify low-risk renal colic patients, who were defined as not requiring urologic intervention within 90 days of their initial ED visit and can be managed conservatively.

Methods

This was a prospective cohort study involving adult patients presenting to the EDs of a tertiary care centre with suspected renal colic over a 20-month period. Renal ultrasonography (US) was performed in the diagnostic imaging department by trained ultrasonographers, and the results were categorized into four mutually exclusive groups: normal, suggestive of ureterolithiasis, visualized ureteric stone, or findings unrelated to urolithiasis. Electronic medical records were reviewed to determine if patients received urologic intervention within 90 days of their ED visit.

Results

Of 610 patients enrolled, 341 (55.9%) had US for suspected renal colic. Of those, 105 (30.8%) were classified as normal; none of these patients underwent urologic intervention within 90 days of their ED visit. Ninety (26.4%) US results were classified as suggestive, and nine (10%) patients received urologic intervention. A total of 139 (40.8%) US results were classified as visualized ureteric stone, and 34 (24.5%) patients had urologic intervention. Seven (2.1%) US results were classified as findings unrelated to urolithiasis, and none of these patients required urologic intervention. The rate of urologic intervention was significantly lower in those with normal US results (p<0.001) than in those with abnormal findings.

Conclusion

A normal renal sonogram predicts a low likelihood for urologic intervention within 90 days for adult ED patients with suspected renal colic.
