Nicolas Barreyre<p>🚨 REMINDER: CALL FOR PAPERS 🚨 </p><p>▶️ Politics, the State, and American Capitalism in the Civil War Era</p><p>👉 Special Issue of the _Journal of the Civil War Era_</p><p>The American Civil War Era was transformative for American capitalism. The destruction of slavery proved the occasion for an unprecedented mobilization of economic resources, dramatic changes in the nature and scale of federal taxation, financial experiments that included a wholesale revamping of the banking and monetary systems, struggles over corporate privileges and labor protections, a slew of expressly developmental policies ranging from railroad subsidies to agricultural research and education, and still more. That all this occurred in a time of governmental crisis, breakdown, and reconstruction underscores the connections between the economy and the state.</p><p>This special issue seeks original papers that explore the Civil War Era as a defining period in American economic development. We seek to publish original scholarship that will reenergize an ongoing conversation among historians about political economy, capitalism, and governance. Our goal is not only to uncover American state capacity – which has by now been revealed beyond any doubt – but to explore government’s concrete role in shaping the country’s economic trajectory during this formative period. We are particularly interested in studies that examine specific government actions and policies, on the federal, state, and municipal levels, that shaped important economic outcomes by reconfiguring markets in various ways. Contributions may address any aspect of economic statecraft, including finance, monetary management, legal doctrine, infrastructural projects, tariffs and trade policies, mobilization of labor, and acquisition and use of land. They may also look into political alignments, divisions, mobilizations, and conflicts around any of these issues. The proposals need not be limited to the war itself or its consequences. We finally seek to prioritize historical work that positions the US in a comparative light and engages themes and questions from disciplines across the social sciences and humanities.</p><p>📆 Deadline for proposals: April 25, 2025.</p><p>More at <a href="https://www.journalofthecivilwarera.org/2025/03/call-for-papers-jcwe-special-issue-on-politics-the-state-and-american-capitalism-in-the-civil-war-era/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">journalofthecivilwarera.org/20</span><span class="invisible">25/03/call-for-papers-jcwe-special-issue-on-politics-the-state-and-american-capitalism-in-the-civil-war-era/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/histodons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>histodons</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>histodons</span></a></span> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/civilwar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>civilwar</span></a> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/civilwarera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>civilwarera</span></a> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/jcwe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jcwe</span></a> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/cfp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cfp</span></a> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/ushistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ushistory</span></a> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.sciences.re/tags/state" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>state</span></a></p>

oatmeal<p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Palestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Palestine</span></a> / Israeli education system overlooking non-Jewish Holocaust victims</p><p>The Israeli education system primarily focuses on the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Holocaust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Holocaust</span></a> experienced by Jewish people, and traditionally minimizes the stories of other victims. While the curriculum does technically include references to non-Jewish victims – such as Roma and people with disabilities – these references are often minimal and occur on the periphery of the main Holocaust narrative. </p><p>A new educational kit developed by “Morasha” aims to provide a more comprehensive understanding of these non-Jewish victims, but currently, only one of 45 lesson plans offered by the Ministry of Education addresses these groups. The Ministry claims the curriculum includes these references, but the article suggests this is a limited and understated representation of the full scope of victims.</p><p>The article highlights that the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Nazi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nazi</span></a> regime persecuted numerous groups beyond just <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Jewish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jewish</span></a> people, including political opponents, professional criminals, immigrants, Jehovah's Witnesses, homosexuals, and those considered "asocial." These groups were identified with different colored triangles in concentration camps. There's a surprising lack of awareness about these other victims, even among Israelis, despite their significant suffering. The education system often minimizes or omits their stories.</p><p>[...] In this regard, Novik says that familiarity with the stories of the non-Jewish populations persecuted during the Holocaust is essential for understanding the Nazi regime and its ideology. 'When you learn about the Holocaust only from the Jewish perspective and describe it as a relatively isolated event historically and socially, it doesn’s provide a complete understanding of how dark and oppressive regimes harm everyone — both within the societies they lead and within the groups of 'others' within them — and of the fact that the very existence of such regimes depends on this suppression, division, and scapegoating,' she says.</p><p>[...] The first steps taken against homosexuals in Germany were directed against LGBTQ+ clubs and publications. The Nazis looted the Institute for Sex Research, violently attacked its employees, and subsequently closed it down. Prior to that, the institute’s library was burned during the infamous Berlin book burning. The Nazis also seized the patient records and used them to create the "Pink Lists" managed by the Gestapo, which included names of men suspected of homosexuality.</p><p>[...] The assessment also shows that homosexuals were persecuted and murdered in Germany alone, while the regime "encouraged" homosexuality in the countries it conquered, believing it would limit the birth rate. Within Germany, they were the first victims of the Nazi regime's medical experiments. However, unlike other persecuted groups, their suffering did not end with the war, as homosexual relationships continued to be illegal, and prisoners who had served their sentences remained in prison even after the change of government.</p><p>In respect to the rise of extreem forms of Nationalism in the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a> and in Europe, it was interesting to read the following:</p><p>[...] Through the assessment, which is open for use by teachers in the education system, one can learn, for example, that the first concentration camps in Nazi Germany were established as early as 1933, and they imprisoned political opponents and those suspected of being such, without being brought to trial or convicted in a legal proceeding, based on the fact that they were defined as a "security threat." Students are asked to answer questions that encourage critical thinking, such as why political opponents are the first to be sent to concentration camps, and why the arrests were called “arrests for protection” – whom were they intended to protect and from what.</p><p>[...] Furthermore, the assessment emphasizes the important role played by the compliant cooperation of many citizens with the regime's extreme measures – even when they were directed against their own family members – and the indoctrination they underwent, which caused them to adopt the Nazi worldview."</p><p>Hebrew <a href="https://www.haaretz.co.il/news/magazine/2025-04-18/ty-article-magazine/.highlight/00000196-3e60-d124-a5d7-be761bbf0000" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">haaretz.co.il/news/magazine/20</span><span class="invisible">25-04-18/ty-article-magazine/.highlight/00000196-3e60-d124-a5d7-be761bbf0000</span></a> or <a href="https://archive.ph/WxYcV" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">archive.ph/WxYcV</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/israel" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>israel</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GazaGenocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GazaGenocide</span></a> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>histodons</span></a></span> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/histodons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>histodons</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQ</span></a></p>
