Die Architektur und der Städtebau der Nachkriegsmoderne werden zunehmend als baukulturelles Erbe einer jungen Vergangenheit verstanden. Die Qualität einzelner Bauten und Planungen aus den Jahrzehnten nach 1945 sind stark umstritten. Gleichzeitig ist ihr Stellenwert als Baudenkmal ein zentrales Thema. In lokalen und überregionalen Debatten werden planerische Strategien und neue Leitlinien für einen adäquaten, zeitgemäßen Umgang mit den Stadträumen der Nachkriegsmoderne erörtert. In dem Buch stellen Jürgen Tietz, Christian Welzbacher und andere ausgewählte Akteure aus Architektur, Gesellschaft und Politik die zentralen Fakten, Aspekte und Positionen heraus und vermitteln die Hintergründe der Auseinandersetzung. Zahlreiche Abbildungen und Pläne veranschaulichen und dokumentieren das Thema, unter anderem am Fallbeispiel Hannover.

Sevastopol, located in present-day Ukraine but still home to the Russian Black Sea Fleet and revered by Russians for its role in the Crimean War, was utterly destroyed by German forces during World War II. In From Ruins to Reconstruction, Karl D. Qualls tells the complex story of the city's rebuilding. Based on extensive research in archives in both Moscow and Sevastopol, architectural plans and drawings, interviews, and his own extensive experience in Sevastopol, Qualls tells a unique story in which the periphery "bests" the Stalinist center: the city's experience shows that local officials had considerable room to maneuver even during the peak years of Stalinist control.Qualls first paints a vivid portrait of the ruined city and the sufferings of its surviving inhabitants. He then turns to Moscow's plans to remake the ancient city on the heroic socialist model prized by Stalin and visited upon most other postwar Soviet cities and towns. In Sevastopol, however, the architects and city planners sent out from the center "went native," deviating from Moscow's blueprints to collaborate with local officials and residents, who seized control of the planning process and rebuilt the city in a manner that celebrated its distinctive historical identity. When completed, postwar Sevastopol resembled a nineteenth-century Russian city, with tree-lined boulevards; wide walkways; and buildings, street names, and memorials to its heroism in wars both long past and recent. Though visually Russian (and still containing a majority Russian-speaking population), Sevastopol was in 1954 joined to Ukraine, which in 1991 became an independent state. In his concluding chapter, Qualls explores how the "Russianness" of the city and the presence of the Russian fleet affect relations between Ukraine, Russia, and the West.

In diesem einen Jahr von Sommer 1944 bis Sommer 1945 berühren sich zwei Zeitalter. Es ist die Kernzone der deutschen Katastrophen- und Transformationsphase zwischen Stalingrad und Währungsreform. Krieg, Eroberung und Besetzung, Sturz der Diktatur und Sieg der Demokratie, Rettung und Vernichtung sind auch ein menschliches Drama und ein geschichtliches Epos gewesen: In wissenschaftlicher Analyse und eindringlicher Erzählung eine Gesamtansicht dieses einen Jahres im Übergang vom Krieg zum Frieden zu geben, ist das Ziel dieses Buches. Pressestimmen zur ersten Auflage 1995: "Eine überaus reiche, anschaulich und lebendig geschilderte Sammlung meisterhafter »Miniaturen«" Rainer A. Blasius in: Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung Henke "hat drei sterile historiographische Erbschaften auf einen Streich überwunden: das ausweichende Reden von Verhängnis und Schicksal, die menschenleeren Strukturlandschaften bestimmter gesellschaftsgeschichtlicher Denkschulen und die Beliebigkeit einer im Kaleidoskop betriebenen Alltagsgeschichte." Hans-Günther Hockerts in: Süddeutsche Zeitung "fulminante Untersuchung...spannend wie ein Krimi" Peter Steinbach in: Der Tagesspiegel "Wenn man sich künftig des Endes des Zweiten Weltkrieges erinnert, wird man auf diese gewichtige Studie zurückgreifen müssen."

Summary: Le présent ouvrage réunit les contributions de chercheurs - historiens de l'architecture, urbanistes - autour de la question d'une spécificité potentielle d'avoir fait une reconstruction que l'on puisse définir européenne dans ses caractères physiques et ethnico-sociaux au lendemain de la deuxième guerre mondiale. La question est ici mise en lumière par des contributions portant sur quelques villes et territoires européens. Bilingue français-italien.

The presentation of Europe's immediate historical past has quite dramatically changed. Conventional depictions of occupation and collaboration in World War II, of wartime resistance and post-war renewal, provided the familiar backdrop against which the chronicle of post-war Europe has mostly been told. Within these often ritualistic presentations, it was possible to conceal the fact that not only were the majority of people in Hitler's Europe not resistance fighters but millions actively co-operated with and many millions more rather easily accommodated to Nazi rule. Moreover, after the war, those who judged former collaborators were sometimes themselves former collaborators. Many people became innocent victims of retribution, while others--among them notorious war criminals--escaped punishment. Nonetheless, the process of retribution was not useless but rather a historically unique effort to purify the continent of the many sins Europeans had committed. This book sheds light on the collective amnesia that overtook European governments and peoples regarding their own responsibility for war crimes and crimes against humanity--an amnesia that has only recently begun to dissipate as a result of often painful searching across the continent. In inspiring essays, a group of internationally renowned scholars unravels the moral and political choices facing European governments in the war's aftermath: how to punish the guilty, how to decide who was guilty of what, how to convert often unspeakable and conflicted war experiences and memories into serviceable, even uplifting accounts of national history. In short, these scholars explore how the drama of the immediate past was (and was not) successfully "overcome." Through their comparative and transnational emphasis, they also illuminate the division between eastern and western Europe, locating its origins both in the war and in post-war domestic and international affairs. Here, as in their discussion of collaborators' trials, the authors lay bare the roots of the many unresolved and painful memories clouding present-day Europe. Contributors are Brad Abrams, Martin Conway, Sarah Farmer, Luc Huyse, László Karsai, Mark Mazower, and Peter Romijn, as well as the editors. Taken separately, their essays are significant contributions to the contemporary history of several European countries. Taken together, they represent an original and pathbreaking account of a formative moment in the shaping of Europe at the dawn of a new millennium.

Taking a transnational perspective on demobilization this study demonstrates that the experience of mass industrial war generated remarkably similar pressures within both the defeated and victorious countries. Using as examples the important provincial centers of Munich and Manchester, it examines the experiences of European urban-dwellers from the last year of the war until the early 1920s, showing how peace could bring unexpected difficulties to economies and societies that had rapidly and fully adapted to the demands of industrial world war.

Fifty years after it was launched, the Marshall Plan remains a major event of post World War II history. But what did it actually do for European reconstruction? To commemorate the opening of its historical archives to the public and their deposit at the European University Institute (EUI), the OECD invited a group of EUI historians to analyse the role played by the Marshall Plan and the Organisation for European Economic Co-operation (OEEC) in the economic recovery of Europe. This book examines the major moments punctuating OEEC history from the original offer of Marshall Aid in 1947 to the decision to create the OECD in 1960. It offers a history of the European economic reconstruction and contributes to discussions on models of co-operation favouring economic development, trade liberalisation and world economic integration.
