Peripheries Uncovered: In Search of Global Approaches for the German Field of Eastern European History

  • Corinne Geering

Abstract

The edited volume Osteuropäische Geschichte und Globalgeschichte by Martin Aust and Julia Obertreis represents the most recent output of the on-going discussion on how to frame the regional focus of Eastern European History after the Cold War. It comprises selected contributions from a conference that took place at the Herder Institute in Marburg in 2011. By means of case studies, the authors assume global historical perspectives for their region of expertise. Though limited by the ‘positionality’ of the contributors, the articles reveal the insights that such approaches to Eastern Europe may offer to the field of global history on the whole.
