The Economics of Total War and Reconstruction, 1914-1922

This chapter features a discussion of the economy and mobilization for the First World War. The authors analyse the implications and cost of total war, concluding with an examination of its contradictory legacies. In studying the war’s impact on Germany in particular, the chapter provides an in-depth look at the consequences of war on Europe’s strongest pre-war economy, without the complications of separating out the issues of a developing country, which can mimic those faced in wartime. The economic challenges that warring parties faced during the war included mobilization, warfare, labour shortage, impaired domestic economic activity, restricted international trade, a systematic redistribution of resources towards the war economy, food rationing, the predictable emergence of black markets, and a drop in living standards. The authors also discuss strategies to meet the significant financial demands associated with the war, and its tumultuous economic and political aftermath.

A European Culture War in the Twentieth Century? Antic-Catholicism and Anti-Bolshevism between Moscow, Berlin, and the Vatican 1922 to 1933

The term “culture war” has become a generic expression for secular-catholic conflicts across nineteenth-century Europe. Yet, if measured by acts of violence, anticlericalism peaked in the years between 1927 and 1939, when thousands of Catholic priests and believers were imprisoned or executed and hundreds of churches razed in Mexico, Spain and Russia. This essay argues that not only in these three countries, but indeed across Europe a culture war raged in the interwar period. It takes, as a case study, the interaction of communist and Catholic actors located in the Vatican, the Soviet Union, and Germany in the period between the beginning of the Pontificate of Pius XI in 1922 and Hitler’s appointment as chancellor of Germany in 1933. Using correspondence and reports from the Vatican archives, this essay shows how Papal officials and communist leaders each sought to mobilize the German populace to achieve their own diplomatic ends. German Catholics and communists gladly responded to the call to arms that sounded from Rome and Moscow in 1930, but they did so also to further their own domestic goals. The case study shows how national contexts inflected the transnational dynamics of radical anti-Catholicism in interwar Europe. In the end, agitation against “godlessness” did not lead to the return of a “Christian State” desired by many conservative Christians. Instead, the culture war further destabilized the republic and added a religious dimension to a landscape well suited to National Socialist efforts to reach a Christian population otherwise mistrustful of its völkisch and anticlerical elements.

Commemorating Women in Irish History, 1912-1922

This is a pilot project to create a website identifying places in Ireland that relate to the history of women, 1912-1922. I have also submitted a grant application to the Heritage Lottery Fund to extend this project to a longer chronological period. This is a collaborative project with Professor Bernadette Whelan in the University of Limerick.

Le collège classique comme espace de vie : l'exemple de Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pocatière (1860-1922)

Ce mémoire étudie l'institution collégiale comme espace de vie au tournant du XXe siècle par le biais d'une étude de cas, le Collège de Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pocatière. Plus concrètement, nous tentons de répondre aux questions suivantes. Comment pense-t-on et aménage-t-on l'espace dans ce collège pour garçons entre 1860-1922? Comment façonne-t-il les identités sociales et que nous révèle-t-il sur celles-ci? Autrement dit, nous nous intéressons aux valeurs qui sont transmises et aux normes sociales qui influencent l'aménagement. Nous cherchons à connaître leur évolution au cours de la période étudiée. Nous soutenons que l'architecture, l'ordonnance spatial, de même que le décor des lieux concourent à inculquer à la jeunesse un système de valeurs qui s'accordent avec l'idéal catholique : le retrait du monde, la piété, le classicisme et le patriotisme sont celles les plus évidemment exhibées au sein du Collège. L'aménagement de l'espace collégial revêt également des fonctions de régulation sociale : il sert à différencier et à hiérarchiser la population collégiale, autant les écoliers, le corps professoral que les employés d'entretien et d'approvisionnement. À un troisième niveau, il apparaît que le Collège de Sainte-Anne se modernise au cours des soixante années examinées. En portant une attention à la sécurité de l'établissement, à l'hygiène corporelle et à l'assainissement des espaces, les nouvelles théories de la pédagogie scolaire à la fin du XIXe siècle, notamment en ce qui concerne les études dites "utilitaires", les sciences, l'exercice physique et les loisirs, affectent et transforment l'institution collégiale de Sainte-Anne. Faire ressortir les effets de l'espace sur la formation identitaire et remettre en cause l'imperméabilité et l'intemporalité de cet espace dit traditionnel constituent donc les premières préoccupations de cette recherche. Le mémoire vise ultimement à mieux comprendre les objectifs d'éducation de l'Église catholique au moment où elle connaît son âge d'or dans la Belle province.

Francisco Fernandes Lopes (1884-1969), historiador do Algarve: contributo para a historiografia henriquina

São ainda muito incipientes os estudos sobre a vida e obra do médico olhanense Francisco Fernandes Lopes (1884-1969), uma das figuras mais interessantes do quadro cultural português da primeira metade do século XX. Na verdade, dificilmente poderemos caracterizá-lo apenas como “médico”, pois era um intelectual multifacetado e interessado nas mais diversas áreas do saber, assim como também é impossível descrevê-lo apenas como “olhanense”, pois a sua actividade intelectual extravasou largamente o âmbito local, regional e mesmo nacional. A presente dissertação, intitulada Francisco Fernandes Lopes (1884-1969), historiador do Algarve: contributo para a historiografia henriquina, tem dois objectivos principais, patentes no próprio título: compreender o homem, ou seja, elaborar um estudo biográfico sobre Fernandes Lopes, e analisar uma das suas facetas, a de historiador, mais concretamente no que concerne à sua obra acerca do Infante D. Henrique e a sua relação ao Algarve. No que respeita à biografia, pretende-se compreender a vida e obra de Francisco Fernandes Lopes através de uma análise concertada do seu percurso de vida, dos seus principais interesses e da sua actividade cultural e intelectual. Neste âmbito, é essencial ter em consideração que a vida de Fernandes Lopes se desenrolou mormente em Olhão, vila algarvia singular devido ao seu panorama arquitectónico único de açoteias, e que ele tanto se empenhou em divulgar, procurando que Olhão ocupasse um lugar de destaque no mapa do Algarve e, também, de Portugal. Relativamente à produção historiográfica tem particular destaque a temática henriquina, que foi a que mais ocupou Francisco Fernandes Lopes entre as décadas de 30 a 60 do século XX. Os seus estudos devem ser entendidos no âmbito de um período histórico muito específico – o Estado Novo – e tendo por base a evolução do pensamento historiográfico, assim como outros estudos similares e coetâneos que permitam formular uma comparação.
