A Civil Society explores the struggle to ini�ate women as full par�cipants in the masonic brotherhood that shared in the rise of France’s civil society and its “civic morality” on behalf of women’s rights. As a vital component of the third sector during France’s moderniza�on, freemasonry empowered women in complex social networks, contribu�ng to a more liberal republic and a more open society.
By mapping the quandaries of racial equality in Atlan�c Revolu�ons, A Frail Liberty contrasts the treatment and status of two colonial popula�ons with African ancestry to document the link between excep�onalism and poli�cal inclusion.

The Suriname Struggles of Jeronimy Clifford, English Subject Jacob Selwood
Science, Modernity, and Ritual Murder at Europe's Fin de Siecle Hillel J. Kieval
CORNELL UNIVERSITY PRESS
UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA PRESS
At Kingdom's Edge inves�gates how life in a conquered colony both revealed and shaped what it meant to be English outside of the Bri�sh Isles. Considering the case of Jeronimy Clifford, who rose to become one of Suriname's richest planters, Jacob Selwood examines the mutual influence of race and subjecthood in the early modern world.
Although the Enlightenment had seemed to bring an end to the belief that Jews murdered Chris�an children for ritual purposes, charges of the so-called blood libel con�nued on either side of the turn to the twen�eth century. Kieval examines four cases to consider how discredited beliefs became plausible to educated European elites.

Humanitarian Relief in the Aftermath of the Great War Friederike Kind-Kovács
How the Business Elites of Europe Prospered in the Era of the Great War Máté Rigó
CORNELL UNIVERSITY PRESS
INDIANA UNIVERSITY PRESS
Reconstructs the responses of Western humanitarian organiza�ons to the mass migra�ons, hunger, and des�tu�on in Europe following World War I. Explores the intertwining of post–World War I na�onalism and interna�onalism and sheds light on the ways humanitarian relief programs created pa�erns of social and economic inequality that simultaneously benefi�ed children and also exploited them.
Explores an o�en-overlooked consequence and paradox of the First World War—the prosperity of business elites and bankers in service of the war effort during the destruc�on of capital and wealth by belligerent armies. This study of business life amidst war follows industrialists and policy makers in Central Europe as the region became crucially important for German and subsequently French plans of economic and geopoli�cal expansion. 1

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON PRESS
CORNELL UNIVERSITY PRESS
Fleischman chronicles East Germany’s journey from family farms to factory farms, explaining how communist principles shaped the adop�on of industrial agriculture prac�ces. More broadly, Fleischman argues that agriculture under communism came to reflect standard prac�ces of capitalist agriculture, and that the pork industry provides a clear illustra�on of this convergence.
Contes�ng Race and Ci�zenship is an original study of Black poli�cs and varie�es of poli�cal mobiliza�on in Italy. Camilla Hawthorne focuses on the ways Italians of African descent have become entangled with processes of re-defining the legal, racial, cultural, and economic boundaries of Italy and by extension, of Europe itself.

Feminism's Empire inves�gates the complex rela�onships between imperialisms and feminisms in the late-nineteenth century and demonstrates the challenge of conceptualizing "proimperialist" and "an�-imperialist" as binary posi�ons. By intellectually and spa�ally tracing the era's first French feminists' engagement with empire, Carolyn J. Eichner explores how feminists opposed—yet employed— approaches to empire in wri�ng, speaking, and publishing.

This wide-ranging, geographically ambi�ous book tells the story of the Arab diaspora within the context of Bri�sh and Dutch colonialism, unpacking the community's ambiguous embrace of European colonial authority in Southeast Asia. Nurfadzilah Yahaya looks at colonial legal infrastructure and discusses how it impacted, and was impacted by, Islam and ethnicity.
Forging Diasporic Ci�zenship explores the dynamics of everyday life for German-born Berliners of Turkish origin. These Ausländer (or "outsiders") are obliged to define themselves by their otherness, but it is their relatedness to German society that transgresses tradi�onal concepts of both German and Turkish iden�ty.

Following the stories of families who built their lives and fortunes across the Atlan�c Ocean, In�mate Bonds shows how households anchored the French empire and shaped the meanings of race, slavery, and gender in the early modern period. This engagingly wri�en history reveals that personal choices and family strategies shaped larger cultural and legal shi�s.
By sharing the stories of sex workers, clients, and managers within the larger legal system—meant to provide dignity and safety through regula�on— Staiger skillfully frames the economic aspects of commercial sex work and addresses important ques�ons about sexual labor, in�macy, and rela�onships. Provides readers with a deeper understanding of the complexi�es of legalized pros�tu�on.
