Abstract
marked by a sincere desire for interdisciplinary dialogue. This stimulating volume is useful not only to specialists but also invites broader discussion about the entangled history of Jewish emancipation and the formation of the secular legal state in Central Europe. It also demonstrates that Jewish scholars’ significant contributions to German-speaking legal scholarship and practice had global effects. The scholars who survived persecution and the Holocaust were among those who leveraged the implementation of international humanitarian law, and some even managed to play a key role in shaping the international political and legal order after World War II.
期刊介绍:
Central European History offers articles, review essays, and book reviews that range widely through the history of Germany, Austria, and other German-speaking regions of Central Europe from the medieval era to the present. All topics and approaches to history are welcome, whether cultural, social, political, diplomatic, intellectual, economic, and military history, as well as historiography and methodology. Contributions that treat new fields, such as post-1945 and post-1989 history, maturing fields such as gender history, and less-represented fields such as medieval history and the history of the Habsburg lands are especially desired. The journal thus aims to be the primary venue for scholarly exchange and debate among scholars of the history of Central Europe.
