New and Forthcoming Titles

Letter from the Editors: We are pleased to present the 2022 history catalog from Columbia University Press. We have a slate of new books that interrogate the lasting global legacies of war and conflict, hidden histories of New York, American POWs in the Cold War, and more. Our latest releases in global history examine the afterlives of war and the stories we tell about them. In Global Easts: Remembering, Imagining, Mobilizing, Jie-Hyun Lim unpacks the global history of memory in the postwar twentieth-century from Eastern Europe to East Asia, exploring the transcultural bonds created by genocide, mourning, and political resistance. Eva-Maria Muschik’s Building States: The United Nations, Development, and Decolonization, 1945–1965 takes a bird’s-eye view of this same period, demonstrating the crucial role of international organizations in forming modern states after World War II. On the other hand, Jonathan Wyrtzen’s Worldmaking in the Long Great War: How Local and Colonial Struggles Shaped the Modern Middle East complicates this notion, arguing that local actors’ ambitions in the years leading up to and following the First World War were integral to creating the divisions, borders, and complexities that persist in the region to this day. Together, these books ask: what world did our modern global wars really create? We have several new titles in American history, New York City history, and the history of American foreign relations. Lost in the Cold War: The Story of Jack Downey, America’s Longest-Held POW compellingly recounts John T. Downey’s twenty-three years in a Chinese prison and the aftermath of his return to the United States. The Essential Writings of Vannevar Bush contains the most prescient and illuminating writings of the man who has been called the “Father of Silicon Valley.” In Before Central Park, the park historian Sara Cedar Miller has written a biography of the land that would become America’s most iconic public space. And in Buried Beneath the City: An Archaeological History of New York, a team of archaeologists explore what artifacts found beneath the streets of New York City tell us about its earlier residents. We are also pleased to announce a new book series covering United-States-in-the-world histories: Global America, edited by Jay Sexton and Sarah B. Snyder. Books in this series will explore America’s global encounters, including how external forces have shaped the development of the United States and vice versa; why American encounters with the wider world have produced volatility and crises; and the shifting contours of U.S. power over time. Collectively, this series will analyze the global history of the United States from a variety of perspectives and methodologies. We are proud to publish these groundbreaking books in history and we hope you enjoy reading them. Sincerely, Caelyn Cobb, editor for global history Stephen Wesley, editor for U.S. history

To Deter and Punish
Unsettling Utopia
Global Collaboration Against Terrorism in the 1970s
The Making and Unmaking of French India Jessica Namakkal
Silke Zoller
To Deter and Punish examines why and how the United States and its Western European allies came to treat nonstate “terrorists” as a key threat. Silke Zoller traces Western state officials’ responses to terrorism from the first Palestinian hijacking in 1968 to Ronald Reagan’s militarization of counterterrorism in the early 1980s.
After India achieved independence from the British in 1947, France retained control of five scattered territories until 1962. Unsettling Utopia presents a new account of twentieth-century French India, showing how colonial projects persisted beyond formal decolonization.

GLOBAL HISTORY
Soft-Power Internationalism
Just Like Us
The American Struggle to Understand Foreigners
Competing for Cultural Influence in the 21st-Century Global Order
Thomas Borstelmann
Edited by Burcu Baykurt and Victoria de Grazia
This book is a global comparative history of how “soft power” came to define the interregnum between the celebration of global capitalism in the 1990s and the recent resurgence of nationalism and authoritarianism. It brings together case studies from the European Union, China, Brazil, Turkey, and the United States.
Just Like Us is a pathbreaking exploration of what foreignness has meant across American history. Thomas Borstelmann traces American ambivalence about non-Americans, identifying a paradoxical perception that foreigners are suspiciously different and yet, beneath layers of culture, share fundamental American values.

The Story of Jack Downey, America’s Longest-Held POW
Lost in the Cold War is the never-before-told story of Jack Downey’s decades as a prisoner of war in China and the efforts to bring him home. Downey’s lively and gripping memoir—written in secret late in life—interweaves horrors and deprivation with humor and the absurdities of captivity.

How Religion Transformed Radical Thought from Black Power to Black Lives Matter
Christopher Hayes

In July 1964, after a white police officer shot and killed a Black teenage boy, unrest broke out in Harlem and then Bedford-Stuyvesant.

Barbary Captives
Worldmaking in the Long Great War
An Anthology of Early Modern Slave Memoirs by Europeans in North Africa
How Local and Colonial Struggles Shaped the Modern Middle East
Edited by Mario Klarer
Jonathan Wyrtzen
This book offers a new account of how the Great War unmade and then remade the political order of the Middle East. Ranging from Morocco to Iran and spanning the eve of the war into the 1930s, it demonstrates that the modern Middle East was shaped through complex and violent power struggles among local and international actors.
In the early modern period, hundreds of thousands of Europeans, both men and women, were abducted by pirates, sold on the slave market, and enslaved in North Africa. Barbary Captives brings together a selection of early modern slave narratives in English translation for the first time.

All Mine!
The Culture of Language in Ming China
Happiness, Ownership, and Naming in EleventhCentury China
Sound, Script, and the Redefinition of Boundaries of Knowledge
Stephen Owen
Nathan Vedal
The scholarly culture of Ming dynasty China is often seen as prioritizing philosophy over concrete textual study. Nathan Vedal uncovers the preoccupation among Ming thinkers with specialized linguistic learning, a field typically associated with the intellectual revolution of the eighteenth century.
Stephen Owen contends that in the new money economy of the Song Dynasty, writers became preoccupied with the question of whether material things can bring happiness. In a series of essays, All Mine! offers strikingly original readings of major eleventh-century figures.

A Global History of Buddhism and Medicine
Common Ground Tibetan Buddhist Expansion and Qing China's Inner Asia
C. Pierce Salguero
Lan Wu
Lan Wu analyzes how Tibetan Buddhists and the Qing imperial rulers interacted and negotiated as both sought strategies to extend their influence in eighteenth-century Inner Asia. Revealing the interdependency of two expanding powers, Common Ground recasts the entangled histories of political, social, and cultural ties between Tibet and China.
This book is a wide-ranging and accessible account of the interplay between Buddhism and medicine over the past two and a half millennia. C. Pierce Salguero shows that Buddhism has played a crucial role in cross-cultural medical exchange globally and that Buddhist knowledge formed the nucleus for many traditional practices that still thrive throughout Asia today.

Buddhist Historiography in China
A Buddhist Sensibility Aesthetic Education at Tibet's Mindröling Monastery
John Kieschnick
Dominique Townsend
John Kieschnick provides an innovative, expansive account of how Chinese Buddhists have sought to understand their history through a Buddhist lens. Exploring mainstream Buddhist historiographical works from the fifth to the twentieth century, Kieschnick looks for what these works tell us about their compilers’ understanding of history.
Founded in 1676, Mindröling Monastery became both a key site for Buddhist education and a Tibetan civilizational center. Dominique Townsend investigates the ritual, artistic, and cultural practices inculcated at Mindröling to demonstrate how early modern Tibetans integrated Buddhist and worldly activities through training in aesthetics.

Transmutations of Desire
A History
Literature and Religion in Late Imperial China

Qiancheng Li
“Information” has become a core concept across the disciplines, yet it is still often seen as a unique feature of the Western world or the digital age. Leading experts turn to China’s textual tradition to show the significance of information for reconceptualizing the work of literary history, from its beginnings to the present moment.
Qiancheng Li examines the nuances of the trend toward love occupying center stage in the Chinese context, with an emphasis on literary texts, including important works of drama from the Ming and Qing dynasties, Buddhist texts, and other religious and philosophical works—in all their subtlety and evocative power.

In 1917, Bolshevik revolutionaries came to power in the war-torn Russian Empire in a way that defied all predictions, including their own. Scarcely a lifespan later, in 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed as accidentally as it arose. Moving seamlessly from Lenin to Stalin to Gorbachev to Putin, Sheila Fitzpatrick provides an indispensable guide to one of the twentieth century’s great powers and the enduring fascination it still exerts.
Nicole Iturriaga offers an ethnographic examination of how Spanish human rights activists use forensic methods to challenge dominant histories, reshape collective memory, and create new forms of transitional justice. Exhuming Violent Histories sheds new light on how science and technology intersect with human rights and collective memory.

Internationalist Aesthetics offers a groundbreaking account of the crucial role that China played in the early Soviet cultural imagination. Reading across genres and media from reportage and biography to ballet and documentary film, Edward Tyerman shows how Soviet culture sought an aesthetics that could foster a sense of internationalist community.
Anastasia Lysyvets’s memoir, first published in Kyiv in 2009, is one of the most powerful testimonies of a victim of the Holodomor, the Great Famine of 1932–1933 in Ukraine. The simple village teacher Lysyvets’s testimony, written during the 1970s and 1980s without hope of publication, depicts pain, death, and hunger as few others do.

On the Verge of History
World War II, Uncontrived and Unredacted
Life Stories of Rural Women from Serbia, Romania, and Hungary, 1920–2020 Izabella Agardi
Testimonies from Ukraine Vakhtang Kipiani
Translated by Zenia Tompkins and Daisy Gibbons
Foreword by Andrea Pető
This book presents accounts of the worst war of the twentieth century. Ordinary people describe how their lives were divided forever into “before” and “after.” It includes the stories of Ukrainians who fought in various armies, and it describes the lives of deported people and the fates of those taken to compulsory labor camps.
Rural women have not had a formative role in the public histories of Central Eastern Europe. Izabella Agárdi aims to correct that by exploring in this book their life stories and their connections to general histories.

Studies in Comparative Imperial and National History
Volume 7, No. 2 Edited by Julie Fedor, Andreas Umland, and Yuliya Yurchuk
Edited by Stephen Velychenko, Joseph Ruane, and Ludmilla Hrynevych
The contributors to this volume argue that the themes of empire, colony, and national liberation movements can be addressed in a European continental context as much as in Asian, Latin American, or African contexts. This withinEurope comparison calls into question the tendency to assume fundamental differences between “western” and “eastern” Europe.
This issue includes the fifth special section in the series “Issues in the History and Memory of the OUN” as well as the second instalment of “A Debate on ‘Ustashism,’ Generic Fascism and the OUN,” both guest edited by Andreas Umland and Yuliya Yurchuk.

URBAN HISTORY
Buried Beneath the City
Fresh Kills
An Archaeological History of New York Nan A. Rothschild, Amanda Sutphin, H. Arthur Bankoff,
A History of Consuming and Discarding in New York City Martin V. Melosi
and Jessica Striebel MacLean
Buried Beneath the City uses urban archaeology to retell the history of New York, from the deeper layers of the past to the topsoil of recent history. The book explores the ever-evolving city and the day-to-day world of its residents through artifacts, from the first traces of indigenous societies more than ten thousand years ago to the detritus of Dutch and English colonization, through to the burgeoning city’s transformation into a modern metropolis.
Fresh Kills—a monumental 2,200-acre structure on Staten Island—was once the world’s largest landfill. Martin V. Melosi provides a comprehensive chronicle of Fresh Kills that offers new insights into the growth and development of New York City and the relationships between consumption, waste, and disposal.

Three Centuries of Economic Decision-Making
Gayle Rogers
George G. Szpiro
Speculation fueled the development of modern capitalism, spurring booms, busts, and bubbles-and recently artificial intelligence has automated the speculation previously done by humans, with uncertain and troubling consequences. Unraveling these histories and many other disputes, Gayle Rogers argues that what has always been at stake in arguments over speculation-and why it so often appears so threatening-is the authority to produce and control knowledge about the future. $30.00 /£25.00 paper 978-0-231-20021-9 $120.00 / £94.00 cloth 978-0-231-20020-2 2021 264 pages

The Ages of Globalization
Meals Matter
A Radical Economics Through Gastronomy
Geography, Technology, and Institutions
Michael Symons
Jeffrey D. Sachs
In Meals Matter, Michael Symons returns economics to its roots in the distribution of food and the labor required by offering a gastronomic rebuttal to the narrow worldview of mainstream economics. An innovative, historically based argument at the intersection of food history and social thought, Meals Matter challenges us to reject the economics of greed in favor of a community-based economics of sharing and gastronomic enjoyment.
Jeffrey D. Sachs turns to world history to shed light on how we can meet the challenges and opportunities of the twenty-first century. He takes readers through a series of six distinct waves of technological and ideological change, starting with the very beginnings of our species and ending with reflections on present-day globalization.

Leah DeVun
A Gay Man’s Intimate Confessions to Émile Zola
Nonbinary Gender from Genesis to the Renaissance
Translated by Nancy Erber and William A. Peniston
In the late nineteenth century, a young Italian aristocrat made an astonishing confession: in a series of revealing letters, he frankly described his sexual experiences with other men. The Italian Invert is the first complete, unexpurgated version in English of this remarkable queer autobiography. $30.00 / £25.00 paper 978-0-231-20489-7
The Shape of Sex is a pathbreaking history of nonbinary sex, focusing on ideas and individuals who allegedly combined or crossed sex or gender categories from 200–1400 CE. Ranging widely across premodern European thought and culture, Leah DeVun reveals how and why efforts to define “the human” so often hinged on ideas about nonbinary sex.

The First Political Order
Transtopia in the Sinophone Pacific
How Sex Shapes Governance and National Security Worldwide
Howard Chiang
Valerie M. Hudson, Donna Lee Bowen, and Perpetua Lynne Nielsen
Howard Chiang proposes a new paradigm for doing transgender history in which geopolitics assumes central importance. Defined as the antidote to transphobia, transtopia challenges a minoritarian view of transgender experience and makes room for the variability of transness on a historical continuum.
The First Political Order is a groundbreaking demonstration that the persistent and systematic subordination of women underlies all other institutions, with wide-ranging implications for global security and development. It offers a new paradigm for understanding insecurity, instability, autocracy, and violence.

Microhistorical Documentaries
Tony Shaw and Giora Goodman
Hollywood has long enjoyed a “special relationship” with Israel. This book offers a groundbreaking account of this relationship, both on and off the screen. Tony Shaw and Giora Goodman investigate the many ways in which Hollywood’s moguls, directors, and actors have supported or challenged Israel for more than seven decades.
In recent decades, a type of historical documentary has emerged that focuses on tightly circumscribed subjects, personal archives, and first-person perspectives. Efrén Cuevas categorizes these films as “microhistorical documentaries” and examines how they push cinema’s capacity as a producer of historical knowledge in new directions.

Bert Williams—a Black man forced to perform in blackface who challenged the stereotypes of minstrelsy. Eva Tanguay—an entertainer with the signature song “I Don’t Care” who flouted the rules of propriety to redefine womanhood for the modern age. Julian Eltinge—a female impersonator who entranced and unnerved audiences by embodying the feminine ideal Tanguay rejected. A Revolution in Three Acts explores how these vaudeville stars changed how their audiences thought about what it meant to be American, to be Black, to be a woman or a man. $19.95 / £14.99 cloth 978-0-231-19182-1 2021 176 pages

Claims of authenticity are prominent in discussions surrounding digital games. What is historical authenticity and does it even matter? When does authenticity or the lack thereof become political? By answering these questions, this book illuminates the ubiquitous category of authenticity from the perspective of historical game studies.
