Divided dreamworlds?: the cultural Cold War in East and West
In: Studies of the Netherlands Institute for War Documentation
While the divide between capitalism and communism, embodied in the image of the Iron Curtain, seemed to be as wide and definitive as any cultural rift, Giles Scott-Smith, Joes Segal, and Peter Romijn have compiled a selection of essays on how culture contributed to the blurring of ideological boundaries between the East and the West. This important and diverse volume presents fascinating insights into the tensions, rivalries, and occasional cooperation between the two blocs, with essays that represent the cutting edge of Cold War Studies and analyze aesthetic preferences and cultural phenomena as various as interior design in East and West Germany; the Soviet stance on genetics; US cultural diplomacy during and after the Cold War; and the role of popular music as the universal cultural ambassador. An illuminating and wide-ranging survey of interrelated collective dreams from both sides of the Iron Curtain, Divided Dreamworlds? has a place on the bookshelf of any modern historian.

Alternative realities: utopian thought in times of political rupture
In: Bulletin of the German Historical Institute
In: Supplement 14
A two-day conference organized by The Max Kade Institute for Austrian-German-Swiss Studies (USC) and The Wende Museum. Co-sponsored by the German Historical Institute and the Centre for Contemporary History, Potsdam (ZZF). Additional support provided by the Feuchtwanger Memorial Library, USC Dornsife Dean's Office, and USC Dornsife Departments of Art History, History, and Slavic Languages and Literature. Modern history has been marked by periodic ruptures, radical changes brought on by wars, revolutionary upheaval, or sudden political shifts that shattered existing social and political structures and belief systems. No country has experienced this more profoundly than Germany, which has witnessed five regimes across the past 100 years and experienced both the heights of national euphoria and the depths of physical and moral defeat and destruction in the twentieth century. During times of fundamental change, cultural ideas and expressions pave the way for the imagination of a new order. This conference focuses on the key role of utopian visions, both artistic and intellectual, that changed the world from the twentieth century to the present day.

Zeitgeschichte der Dinge: Spurensuchen in der materiellen Kultur der DDR$
Seit einiger Zeit rückt die materielle Kultur in den Fokus der wissenschaftlichen Aufmerksamkeit, denn es sind oft die belanglos erscheinenden Alltagsdinge, deren genaue Analyse Hinweise auf ihre sozialen, gesellschaftlichen und historischen Bedeutungen offenlegt. Sie werden damit allererst zu historischen Zeugnissen und gewinnen neue Aussagekraft. Die in diesem Band versammelten Beiträge machen die Alltagskultur und ihre Bedeutungsvielfalt als »Dingausstattungen« von Gesellschaft zum Thema. Damit wird die aktuelle Debatte um einen »material turn« in den Kulturwissenschaften hier erstmals für die Zeitgeschichte erkundet. Der Band versammelt dazu Beiträge mit unterschiedlichen wissenschaftlichen Perspektiven. Er thematisiert soziale Arrangements wie die Wohnung, das Büro und die Stadt in ihrer dinglichen Dimension, betrachtet die Fotografie als materielle Quelle und untersucht biographische Dinge sowie das Kriterium der Schönheit. In einem zweiten Teil fokussiert er Alltagsobjekte mittels detaillierter Spurensuchen und erkundet abschließend die politische und soziale Dimension der musealisierten Objektkultur.
