  abstract  = {After the Second World War, Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini were singled out as evil geniuses who misled the masses and plunged them into an "unwanted war." In relation to their armed forces, this narrative argued that the generals under their command had been demoted to powerless tools in the hands of the dictators, having to follow orders and with no sway over decision-making. It was further asserted that Germany and Italy had not been able to secure a victory due to the dictators' meddling. Yet, as this chapter shows, there are important differences between the German and Italian cases. The chapter compares both the command structures in which the dictators operated as well as their grand strategies and how they cooperated during the war. Their personal relationship will be also analyzed, as it is impossible to look at the Axis without understanding the complex personal relationship at the very top. The strategies of both Hitler and Mussolini will be looked at and how each leader behaved in terms of working with their closest ally, together with some examples of cooperation on the lower military rungs.},

  abstract  = {Over the six decades since it officially ended, the Algerian War has become a key event for marking, retrospectively, the beginning of a new era in European, Western and global history. This new era is characterized by the proclaimed end of Western hegemony - by the proclaimed end of European history as global, universal history. This era, our era, understands itself as the time after the domination of the West, a time or multiple times of "post": the time of postcolonialism, but also postmodernity, postsecularism, posthumanism. The times of "post" are characterized by a fundamental reconfiguration of the relations between European civilization and its Others, first and foremost by the proclaimed split between Europe and its Others, and more generally by the disintegration, disruption and dispersion of the - allegedly - unified space of culture, knowledge and discourse. The postcolonial era is an era of diversity and difference, an era of dispersions and diasporas, where the space of culture is a space of multiple cultures, a space of in-between, of "inter": the space of the intercultural, but also the interreligious, interethnic, interracial and inter-epistemic. This conference will reflect on the "inter" in the time of "post". We invited scholars, thinkers, intellectuals and artists to discuss various aspects and models of intercultural dynamics that have been developed and articulated in the aftermath of the Algerian War or of other events that marked the decline of Western hegemony, such as the Second Vatican, May 1968 or the Vietnam War. How did the age of decolonization reshape the discourse and practice of intercultural relations? To what extent interculturality itself is a sign or a site of decolonization? To what extent, on the contrary, intercultural relations may reproduce colonial or generate neocolonial patterns? Contributions examine the emergence of intercultural notions and practices in various intellectual traditions, European or non-European; the development of new categories and constellations of identity, otherness and dialogue; the interrelations between epistemic, cultural, discursive, religious and political aspects; as well as reactions to these new developments and various forms of critique and resistance. We are especially interested in how this reflection may shed light on socio-political and cultural phenomena, trends and concerns of the present time.},

  abstract  = {This open access book is about Mozambicans and Angolans who migrated in state-sponsored schemes to East Germany in the late 1970s and throughout the 1980s. They went to work and to be trained as a vanguard labor force for the intended African industrial revolutions. While they were there, they contributed their labor power to the East German economy.  This book draws on more than 260 life history interviews and uncovers complex and contradictory experiences and transnational encounters. What emerges is a series of dualities that exist side by side in the memories of the former migrants: the state and the individual, work and consumption, integration and exclusion, loss and gain, and the past in the past and the past in the present and future. By uncovering these dualities, the book explores the lives of African migrants moving between the Third and Second worlds.  Devoted to the memories of worker-trainees, this transnational study comes at a time when historians are uncovering the many varied, complicated, and important connections within the global socialist world.},

  abstract  = {La prima storia complessiva degli efferati crimini nazisti, che dimostra come diffuse e generalizzate politiche di sterminio fossero cruciali per la strategia del regime al fine di vincere la guerra e impossessarsi del mondo. La Germania nazista uccise circa tredici milioni di civili e altri non combattenti con deliberate politiche di omicidi di massa, soprattutto durante gli anni della guerra. Quasi la met{\`a} delle vittime furono ebree, sistematicamente annientate dall'Olocausto, fulcro del programma paneuropeo di purificazione razziale messo in atto dai nazisti. Alex Kay sostiene che {\`e} anche possibile esaminare il genocidio degli ebrei europei inserendolo nel contesto pi{\´u} ampio delle uccisioni di massa naziste. Per la prima volta, L'impero della distruzione considera gli ebrei europei insieme a tutti gli altri principali gruppi di vittime: prigionieri dell'Armata Rossa, popolazione urbana sovietica, civili inermi vittime di terrore preventivo e rappresaglie, disabili psichici e fisici, rom europei e intellighenzia polacca. Ciascuno di questi gruppi era considerato dal regime nazista come una potenziale minaccia alla capacit{\`a} della Germania di condurre con successo una guerra per l'egemonia in Europa. Un'opera fondamentale e innovativa che associa i numeri complessivi dello sterminio con la ricostruzione di singoli casi di orrore quotidiano.},
