Abstract

Les révélations sur les attaches du président de la République François Mitterrand avec Vichy ont fait en leur temps l'effet d'une bombe. Perplexes ou choqués, les Français se sont demandé comment on pouvait prétendre avoir été à la fois résistant et partisan de Pétain. Le livre de Bénédicte Vergez-Chaignon est la première étude d'ensemble sur ce qui a constitué, pendant cinquante ans, un tabou. Grâce à de multiples archives, l'auteur dresse un panorama complet de cette résistance au profil très particulier, puisqu'elle est née en 1940 autour du thème de la revanche militaire, et non de la résistance. Au fil des pérégrinations idéologiques et des rapprochements tactiques, on voit notamment défiler le maréchal de Lattre, Marie-Madeleine Fourcade, Pierre Bénouville, Henri Frenay, André Bettencourt, Maurice Clavel, François Mitterrand et beaucoup d'autres. En étudiant la manière dont s'est figée l'image d'une " Résistance " mythifiée, Bénédicte Vergez-Chaignon montre comment les vichysto-résistants se sont insérés dans la France d'après-guerre. Richesse des sources, sûreté de l'analyse et péripéties multiples font de ce livre une référence indispensable.

Abstract

In his most challenging work to date, journalist and author Tom Coffman offers readers a new and much-needed political narrative of twentieth-century Hawaii. The Island Edge of America reinterprets the major events leading up to and following statehood in 1959: U.S. annexation of the Hawaiian kingdom, the wartime crisis of the Japanese-American community, postwar labor organization, the Cold War, the development of Hawaii's legendary Democratic Party, the rise of native Hawaiian nationalism. His account weaves together the threads of multicultural and transnational forces that have shaped the Islands for more than a century, looking beyond the Hawaii carefully packaged for the tourist to the Hawaii of complex and conflicting identities--independent kingdom, overseas colony, U.S. state, indigenous nation--a wonderfully rich, diverse, and at times troubled place.With a sure grasp of political history and culture based on decades of firsthand archival research, Tom Coffman takes Hawaii's story into the twentieth century and in the process sheds new light on America's island edge.

Abstract

This book is about domestic politics following the Revolution of 1908 in Turkey. Although seemingly straightforward in its telling of events from the opening of the Parliament in alte 1908 to the re-capture of constitutional government in early 1913, this book is built upon a premise that is fundamentally different from previous studies. Whereas previous studies deal with the period as if conditions were normalised immediately after the Revolution of 1908, this book takes the view that the period under scrutiny is a relentless struggle over the political future of Turkey. The Revolution of 1908 was no mere "restoration" of the Constitution of 1876. It tried to bring about a fundamental change in the political structure of Turkey. In more senses than one, the Revolution brought about the end of the Ottoman Empire. If the Ottoman Empire stood for everything that reminded one of absolutism and the practices associated with it, "Young Turkey" represented a radical break with that past. A modern, centralised state actively engaged in both promoting capitalist relations of production in the economy, and upholding a parliamentary form of government in politics replaced the absolutist state symbolised in the autocratic personality of Abdülhamid II. The political history of the period from late 1908 to early 1913 reflects the constant struggle between the proponents of the new regime working through, and depending upon, the newly created parliament, and the monarchist forces who aimed at restoring the ancien régime at all costs. One cannot but observe that this is no ordinary parliamentary struggle of two opposing political groups to capture political power through mutually agreed upon principles of liberal democratic politics. Although a superficial look at parliamentary debates and press reports might give that impression, a closer scrutiny of the content of those debates and the reason for, as well as the nature of, the arguments and disagreements show it with absolute clarity that here was a case of a continuous struggle between the old, absolutist mentality and the new, liberal worldview.

Abstract

Zivil- und Militärkabinett, Gründungen des 18. Jahrhunderts, waren Instrumente königlicher Selbstregierung. Die Kabinettschefs, adelige Offiziere und adelige Laufbahnbeamte, bildeten als Vertrauensleute der Monarchen deren Pufferinstanz gegenüber der wachsenden Staatsverwaltung und eigenwilligen Ministern. Kabinettschefs waren bei der Personalauswahl und zuweilen in Entscheidungssituationen bedeutsam. Als mit der Verfassung ab 1848 Parlamente eine Rolle spielten, standen Kabinette in der Kritik, aber Preußens Könige hielten an ihrem monarchischen Regierungsapparat bis 1918 fest. Kabinette funktionierten wie Staatsbehörden und kooperierten mit den Regierungsspitzen, behielten als Büros des Monarchen aber weiter ihren Sonderstatus. Extrakonstitutionell agierte besonders das Militärkabinett, das Wilhelm I. ab 1861 stärkte, um eine vom Parlamentseinfluss freie Kommandozentrale zu besitzen. Analog etablierte Wilhelm II. 1889 das Marinekabinett. Der Band zeigt all dies in 320 Dokumenten.
