Writers on the socialist left wing of the pre-1914 Australian labour movement have noted the prominent role of activists from non-English-speaking backgrounds among Australia’s small radical organisations. European socialists in Australia, especially those from German backgrounds, could draw on an extensive socialist print culture: newspapers, pamp...
This paper examines the largely overlooked role of denunciation in initiating the Frankfurt trial of Rosa Luxemburg in early 1914 for inciting disobedience among German soldiers, and corrects errors that have entered the scholarly literature on the topic. This is then taken as the starting point for wider reflections on the connections between denu...
Noah Benezra Strote’s book joins a number of recent works which have sought to re-assess post-war German intellectual history, such as Dirk Moses’ German Intellectuals and the Nazi Past (2007) and Sean A. Forner’s German Intellectuals and the Challenge of Democratic Renewal (2014). He presents his book as an alternative to conventional narratives o...
This article responds to debate over casualisation within the Australian Historical Association (AHA) and within the history profession in Australia more generally. It is argued that competing interests increasingly govern relations between salaried and casual academics. The article seeks to historicise these competing interests within the discipli...
The volume under review can stand on its own as an account of the emergence of an organized German labour movement from the 1830s to the period of German unification in the 1860s. However, it also represents an instalment in a larger project documenting the history of German workers and the labour movement from the late eighteenth century on, a pro...

As social science evolved during the second half of the nineteenth century, the phenomenon of suicide received significant attention from sociologists. The issue of the frequency of suicides in the Imperial German armed forces proved highly sensitive. Official sources sought to minimize evidence of the mistreatment of soldiers in their presentation...
In the light of recent scholarship on Australian responses to Nazism, Fascism and the origins of the Second World War in Europe, it is worth revisiting a formative influence on Australian public opinion on international affairs in the 1930s, the Sydney University historian Stephen H. Roberts. While his bestselling 1937 book, The House that Hitler B...
Robert Michels's work Political Parties is often seen as a founding text of modern political science, and its arguments on the tendency of democratic parties to
become subject to oligarchical control by full-time functionaries are still widely cited today. The book's influence derives
partly from elements of elite theory which Michels took from Par...
While the long-standing historical importance of Shakespeare's plays in the repertoire of German theatres is well-documented, including even under the 'Third Reich', there are misconceptions in some of the literature about the stage history of two plays that one would expect to touch on Nazi racial sensitivities in very different ways: The Merchant...
The Social Democratic Party in Imperial Germany (SPD), with a million members, was Europe's first true mass-membership political party. In the undemocratic, authoritarian regime of the Kaiser's Germany, it was a force pushing for reform and democratization. Its programme advocated equal civic rights for all German men and women. It was a consistent...

... Previously, the Japanese army had entered the South Sumatra area on 14 February 1942 by passing the umbrella troops, amounting to 600-700 personnel, which resulted in the outbreak of war for two days, with a victory on the Japanese side after the Dutch surrendered. Starting from 16 February 1942, the official southern Sumatran people were under the rule of Japan (Bonnell 2020). Japan succeeded in occupying the Dutch East Indies to master natural resources, especially petroleum, in order to support the Japanese potential for war and to support its industry. ...
... For the academic precariat, increased casualisation within a two-tiered system has translated to them spending years -sometimes entire careers (Stringer et al. 2018) -cycling through contracts that leave them with little autonomy and vulnerable to changes in work (Oldfield et al. 2021;Thomas et al. 2020), with little hope of ever rising to the top tier. And since 2020, the conditions for precarious staff in Aotearoa's universities have further worsened through increased workloads and job cuts, as universities scramble to recoup financial losses associated with the COVID-19 pandemic (Oldfield et al. 2021). ...
... A universidade é reconhecidamente uma instituição social ligada ao permanente exercício da crítica, na interseção entre memória, herança cultural, saberes historicamente produzidos e produção de novos conhecimentos (Almeida & Pimenta, 2014) ela congrega sujeitos que, coletivamente, atuam nas frentes de ensino, pesquisa e extensão. Passado, presente e futuro, são colocados dialeticamente no ofício dos/as professores/as pesquisadores/as: há sempre um diálogo com a tradição do pensamento estabelecido nos processos de crítica, atualização e inovação, inerentes ao trabalho que acontece no interior das instituições de Ensino Superior ao redor do mundo (Connell, 2019). Estes movimentos, que tratam do papel social desta instituição, quando pensamos o ensino e a formação de professores/as no Brasil, e mais especificamente no contexto amazônico, passam necessariamente pelos espaços dedicados a qualificar os/as profissionais da Educação. ...
