As scholars and politicians debated the shape of a new world order, they turned toward apparently universal categories of time and emotion to explain both individual behaviors and collective cultures. However, the only time that counted was developmental and the only emotions that mattered were those that could be managed and utilized. This article shows how UNESCO's search for a new humanism remained constrained by racialized discourses that closed down the emancipatory potential of reckoning with the past in the present. The possibilities for open futures, generated by anticolonial politics and by new institutions of knowledge production, would remain marginalized by the teleology that underpinned UNESCO-sponsored social science.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"32 1","pages":"685 - 715"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47191939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the mass suffering caused by the pandemic, it has been largely ignored by historians. I describe how the Egyptian public health service was unprepared for a major health crisis because resources were redirected to serve military needs. Rural and poor Egyptians were particularly vulnerable as war food policies failed to meet their stated goal of ensuring a consistent and affordable supply of commodities; by summer 1918 conditions had deteriorated to the point that food riots and wheat famines were reported throughout the country. I conclude by raising questions about the impact that the pandemic had on the political situation in Egypt, arguing that the government's inability to manage the crisis contributed to pressures underlying the 1919 nationalist uprising.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"32 1","pages":"655 - 684"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45219345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The two countries alike were ambitious empires, their leaders committed to expansion as a means of political and economic regeneration. More than this, the French empire \"borrowed\" images from its republican cousin to help incorporate Algeria. Writers during the July Monarchy saw American Indians' decline as a forerunner to white settlement's consequences in North Africa, although they rationalized how Algerians might be treated more benevolently. Napoléon III vowed to prevent an American analogue by setting aside Arab tribal land. Liberal reformers during the early Third Republic, however, called for assimilation of Algerians through land privatization, hailing the U.S. Homestead Act for how it could facilitate egalitarian, private land ownership, and thus help establish what Michel Chevalier had earlier imagined as the French \"West.\"","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"32 1","pages":"601 - 629"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47535230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over time, as officers from different organizations grappled with question of advantages and disadvantages of solutions for different regions, it became increasingly doubtful whether the flush toilet/water-carried disposal could be the model for the entire world, andwhether it even should.Gradually, as scientific information and public attitudes changed, international recommendations shifted from viewing excreta reuse as a temporarily necessary evil to—partially—embracing it as an ecologically desirable long-term development goal.The importance of modernity as a principal driver of sanitation reform remained intact, but the concept ofwhat constitutedmodernity changed from one whose main criteria was efficient hazard removal to one geared toward comprehensive health protection and resource conservation.Over several decades, international organizations acted as catalysts for the conceptual developments regarding human waste disposal and the ideological underpinnings they stood for.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"32 1","pages":"517 - 545"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43291000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Lost Maps of the Caliphs, Rapoport and Savage-Smith successfully reintroduce the Book of Curiosities to the history of Medieval cartographic knowledge and bring the Fatimid caliphate to the forefront of Islamic studies. In doing so, they investigate how cartographic knowledge had been adapted and transmitted from “the pre-Islamic Greek and Syriac speaking Middle East” to the eleventh century Muslim world (p. 100). Thorough descriptions and comprehensive historical and geographical analysis of maps and diagrams of the manuscript are accompanied with their colored as well as black and white reproductions. This combination allows the readers to visualize how the eleventh-century sailors navigated, imagined, and depicted the world around them before the compass. Beyond its significance for the history of cartographic knowledge, the Book of Curiosities, as Rapoport and Savage-Smith reminds us, is an indispensable source for the history of global communications. It contains a wealth of information and maps concerning navigation and communication in the East of the Mediterranean as well as East Asia and East Africa. The extend of Fatimid knowledge on the Byzantine coasts reveals the close contacts between the Muslim and Christian empires of the Mediterranean. Simultaneously, the maps of the East Africa and the trade route between India and China attest to the Fatimid aspirations to become a global maritime power.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"32 1","pages":"552 - 556"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46101328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet there were a handful of countries at UNCTAD that sought to present themselves as not fitting into this system. These countries included Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. Using Australia as a case study, this paper will demonstrate that the dominant dichotomy oversimplifies the developmental arguments that were presented at UNCTAD. Australia's policy at the Conference, which was generally referred to as the \"Middle Zone,\" revolved around presenting Australia as being neither a \"developed\" nor \"developing\" country. By examining the Australian arguments, a more nuanced understanding of North-South relations is possible. Ultimately, the Australian case study provides a new way of understanding the significance of UNCTAD in the history of international development.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"32 1","pages":"465 - 489"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49105925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The discussion goes beyond classic Cold War interpretations. The paper analyzes complex interrelations and contradictions of Cold War, Decolonization, and global economic conditions. The analysis shows that Soviet expectations tended to overlook socialist-capitalist interdependencies as well as the decisive influence of Indian aims and activities. Nehru's so-called socialistic pattern of society did not replicate the Soviet model. Moscow expected the economic cooperation to propel socialist developments in India. At the same time, it should provide the socialist world with necessary support for its competition with the West. These different aims and motivations led to lasting contradictions and incompatibilities in economic relations. The paper focuses on central characteristics of Soviet approaches. It reconstructs main fields and practices of Indo-Soviet economic cooperation, analyses inherent contradictions, and discusses results and implications.","PeriodicalId":17466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of World History","volume":"32 1","pages":"439 - 464"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44813855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
