26 History · Geschichte · Histoire T Tibor Frank Double Exile his is a social history of refugees escaping Hungary after the Bolshevik-type revolution of 1919, the ensuing counterrevolution, and the rise of anti-Semitism . Largely Jewish and German before World War I, the Hungarian middle class was torn by the disastrous war, the partitioning of Hungary in the Treaty of Trianon, and the numerus clausus act XXV in 1920 that seriously curtailed the number of Jews admitted to higher education . Hungary’s outstanding future professionals, whether Jewish, Liberal or Socialist, felt compelled to leave the country and head to German-speaking universities in Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Germany . When Hitler came to power, these exiles were to flee again, many on the fringes of the huge German emigration . Emotionally prepared by their earlier threatening experiences in Hungary, they were quick to recognize the need to uproot themselves again . Many fled to the United States where their double exile catalyzed the USA into an active enemy of Nazi Germany and stimulated the transplantation of European modernism into American art and music . To their surprise, the refugees also encountered anti-Semitism in the USA . The book is based on extensive archival work in the USA and Germany . «Tibor Frank is the world’s foremost expert on Hungarian scholars, scientists, and artists who chose exile or were forced into exile during the first half of the twentieth century. (...) Frank’s description of the adventures of these extraordinary expatriates is as fascinating as is, for instance, his analysis of how some among them helped to develop the atomic and nuclear bombs as well as computers, thereby literally changing the way we live and think today.» (István Deák, Columbia University) «This fascinating book goes far beyond Fermi’s and Bailyn/Fleming’s accounts and presents the whole story in all its transatlantic richness.

At the end I was forced to contemplate the historical contingency that without the Hungarian ‘gimnázium’ there might not have been an American atomic bomb...» (Werner Sollors, Harvard University) «The book to be read (...) is Frank’s masterly account of a greatly gifted generation, most of the members of which had twice to begin their lives anew in foreign lands.» (Lee Congdon, Hungarian Studies Review) «Frank covers an impressive range of issues and people, examining with great care the Hungarian, Central European, German and American layers of the émigré question, returning time and again to the notion of the ‘Hungarian genius’ and the idea that emigration studies should further differentiate national origins, so as to become aware of the more intricate effects of specific cultural traditions and educations. In doing so, Frank creates a surprisingly pleasant, considering the subject, and at times page-turning, narrative that provides access to a staggering amount of data and source material about Hungarian-Jewish professionals from 1919 up to the present.» (Ilse Josepha Maria Lazaroms, European Review of History) tiBor Frank , M .A ., Dr .Univ ., Ph .D ., D .Litt . is Professor of History and Director of the School of English and American Studies at Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary .

Les réseaux de communication, postaux ou électriques, s’affranchissent non seulement des distances, mais des frontières . Cet état de fait n’a rien de naturel ou de techniquement déterminé . Pour lui donner la forme qu’il a prise, il a certes fallu des moyens matériels, révolutionnés au cours des innovations, mais aussi des accords politiques et techniques . Le présent ouvrage est le premier à proposer une histoire, de l’intérieur et dans la longue durée, de la coopération qui a ainsi canalisé l’expansion internationale des flux d’information depuis la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle . En suivant les acteurs français, il plonge dans l’espace méconnu des organisations techniques internationales, avec leurs débats feutrés aux lourds enjeux économiques et symboliques, où se sont articulés de manière originale la souveraineté des Etats, le service d’un public transnational et un idéal de rapprochement des peuples . Récit de la mise au monde des réseaux, c’est aussi celui de la mise en réseaux d’une Europe où les frontières sont moins des barrières que des franchissements . Avec au cœur, à la charnière du technique et du diplomatique, la communauté discrète et puissante des experts . «This book is comprehensively, thoroughly, even exhaustively researched. [...] This is, in many respects, an interesting book in the history of technology and what Laborie calls ‘technological diplomacy’. It is not about the culture of technology, but even cultural historians, not to mention political, diplomatic, and economic specialists, will find much useful detail.» (Stephen L. Harp, H-France Review) léonard laBorie est agrégé et docteur en histoire de l’Université Paris-Sorbonne . Il est chargé de recherche au CNRS, à l’UMR Irice 8138 (Paris I - Paris IV) .
I s the Asian stem family different from its European counterpart? This question is a central issue in this collection of essays assembled by two historians of the family in Eurasian perspective . The stem family is characterized by the residential rule that only one married child remains with the parents . This rule has a direct effect upon household structure . In short, the stem family is a domestic unit of production and reproduction that persists over generations, handing down the patrimony through non-egalitarian inheritance . In spite of its ambiguous status in current family typology as something lurking in the valley between the nuclear family and the joint family, the stem family was an important family form in pre-industrial Western Europe and has been a focus of the European family history since Frédéric Le Play and more recently <strong>Peter</strong> Laslett . However, the encounter with Asian family history has revealed that many areas in Asia also had and still have a considerable proportion of households with a stemfamily structure . The stem family debate has entered a new stage . In this book, some studies that benefited from recently created large databases present micro-level analyses of dynamic aspects of family systems, while others discuss more broadly the rise and fall of family systems, past and present . A main concern of this book is whether the family type in a society is ethno-culturally determined and resistant to changes or created by socio-economic conditions . Such a comparison that includes Asian countries activates a new phase of the discussion on the stem family and family systems in a global perspective .

Au mieux, on entrevoit qu’il rejette dos à dos Monnet et De Gaulle, preuve de son euroscepticisme supposé . Au pire, on le considère comme le chantre d’un atlantisme forcené où l’Europe est assujettie aux Etats-Unis . La question ne se règle pas aussi facilement . Il s’agit d’étudier l’itinéraire européen d’Aron tout au long de ses actions de militant et de ses écrits, dès ses premiers articles au début des années trente jusqu’à ses derniers éditoriaux en octobre 1983 . Comment a-t-il pensé l’Europe à travers ses livres, articles, cours et conférences ? Quel Européen se bat pour quelle forme d’Europe ? Croit-il en une identité européenne spécifique ? En abordant des thèmes récurrents dans les travaux d’Aron, comme le devoir de responsabilité de l’intellectuel, la question du déterminisme historique, la dénonciation de l’idéologie et de ses dangers, la lutte contre le totalitarisme, l’analyse des relations internationales et la problématique de l’hypothétique crise ou décadence de la civilisation occidentale, ce livre a pour ambition d’éclairer Our complete backlist is available at www.peterlang.com 27
