摘要

一战前德国殖民主义和帝国主义与纳粹政权及其罪行之间的联系,在历史学家和公众中引起了最近的争论。虽然对德国殖民连续性的极端主义立场是不可持续的,但重要的帝国遗产延伸到纳粹时期的可能性,以及德国殖民Sonderweg或“特殊道路”的论点,在逻辑上并不相同。本文以汉堡的商业利益为中心,探讨了威廉时代德国自由帝国主义的转型。它认为,帝国最强大的遗产是它的缺席,这种缺席创造了矛盾的未来,模糊了通往德国权力和国际秩序的自由主义和非自由主义道路之间的界限。这种模糊性为将纳粹主义描述为全球模式的一种极端表达,以及围绕德国例外论这种站不住脚的概念的有问题的尝试提供了一条出路。

Hamburg Free Traders and the Business of Empire, 1897–1941
Abstract Recent debates among historians and in public have concerned the links between German colonialism and imperialism before the First World War and the Nazi regime and its crimes. While a maximalist position on German colonial continuities is unsustainable, the possibility of important imperial legacies stretching into the Nazi period and the argument for a German colonial Sonderweg , or “special path,” are not logically coextensive. This article explores the transformation of Wilhelmine German liberal imperialism by focusing on commercial interests in Hamburg. It argues that empire's strongest legacy was its absence, an absence that created ambivalent possible futures and blurred the line between liberal and illiberal avenues to German power and international order. This blurriness offers an end-run around problematical attempts to narrate Nazism as little more than an extreme expression of global patterns and around untenable notions of German exceptionalism.

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.
