The capitalist system has often been described by its critics as a heartless economic structure corroding social bonds and symbolic values. Its defenders and analysts likewise use narratives that position emotions as central to the economy. This book enquires into the history of these framings.To explore the role of emotions in economic practices and imaginaries, the volume presents case studies including original rereadings of well-known texts such as Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer’s Dialectic of Enlightenment, as well as forays into little-known histories such as representations of capitalists in post-war Turkey, and how art dealers strategically used emotions for navigating the market in interwar Germany. Rather than simply reproducing the image of “cold capitalism”, however, it offers nuanced investigations into the ambivalent images evoked by living and working within economic structures. In late-socialist Poland, capitalism felt “warm” and “fuzzy”, while pop culture of the seventies found it not destructive but cool, hip, and edgy.This book is aimed at students and scholars of social, economic, and cultural history.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylor francis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution- Non- Commercial- No Derivatives(CC- BY- NC- ND) 4.0 license.

Historicizing both emotions and politics, this open access book argues that the historical work of emotion is most clearly understood in terms of the dynamics of institutionalization. This is shown in twelve case studies that focus on decisive moments in European and US history from 1800 until today. Each case study clarifies how emotions were central to people’s political engagement and its effects. The sources range from parliamentary buildings and social movements, to images and speeches of presidents, from fascist cemeteries to the International Criminal Court. Both the timeframe and the geographical focus have been chosen to highlight the increasingly participatory character of nineteenth- and twentieth-century politics, which is inconceivable without the work of emotions.

Dass eine europäisch gewendete Geschichtsschreibung mit Methoden des Vergleichs, des Transfers und der Verflechtung arbeiten sollte oder gar zu arbeiten gewohnt ist, gehört seit mehreren Jahren zum festen Kanon der diesbezüglichen Diskussionen. Arbeiten, die diesen Forderungen empirisch nachgekommen sind, gehören jedoch noch immer zu einem Desiderat der Forschung. Der vorliegende Band möchte in diese Lücke hineinstoßen. Sein Ziel ist es, am Beispiel von Studien zu west- und osteuropäischen Räumen die Anwendbarkeit und den Mehrwert vergleichender, transfer- und verflechtungsgeschichtlicher Ansätze kritisch zu hinterfragen. Gerahmt werden die Beiträge durch Einführungen und Kommentare namhafter Vertreter der europäischen Geschichtsschreibung.

How, and particularly why, did the "leftist"-leaning faction of the democratic opposition in Poland arise? Agnes Arndt looks at the social and gender-specific perspectives that were present in the beginnings of the Polish leftist dissidents. She poses, and answers, questions concerning the bourgeois and often Jewish background of the main actors. She also looks at their relationship to the Communist authorities, the Polish nation and the primarily Catholic Polish society.
