Mothers of Seafaring
(2023)
The article aims to trace the contribution of Jewish women in the Yishuv’s maritime history. Taking the example of Henrietta Diamond, a founding member and chairperson of the Zebulun Seafaring Society, the article seeks to explore the representation and role of women in a growing Jewish maritime domain from the 1930s to the 1950s. It examines Zionist narratives on the ‘New Jew’ and the Jewish body and studies their relevance for the emerging field of maritime activities in the Yishuv. By contextualizing the work and depiction of Henrietta Diamond, the article sheds new light on the gendered notions that underlay the emergence of the Jewish maritime domain and illustrates the patterns of inclusion and exclusion in it.
The birth of the Yishuv’s national shipping company, ZIM was preceded by private enterprise; the sea had not traditionally been a focus of the Zionist movement. In the 1930s, a five-year span of private commercial shipping saw three companies in the Jewish community in Palestine – Palestine Shipping Company, Palestine Maritime Lloyd, and Atid – before shipping was cut short by the outbreak of the Second World War. Despite their brief lifespans and their negligible contribution to general shipping, these companies constituted an important milestone. Their existence helped shift the Yishuv leadership’s attitudes about shipping’s importance for the community and the need for it to be supported by national institutions.
“Israel am Meere”
(2023)
For Jews in Germany, the period following the Nazis’ rise to power in January 1933 was a period of decision-making on many levels: How should they respond to the persecution? If they decided to emigrate, many more decisions had to be made: How does one leave a country, and where should one go? A key moment in the process and in the cultural practice of emigration is the beginning of the sea voyage – when the need for departure and the hope for a new arrival jointly create a period of liminality. Looking at reports from sea voyages of exploration and emigration from the 1930s, this contribution discusses the question whether, and in what ways, such reflections can be read in the context of religious experiences and in the search for Jewish identities in times of turmoil.

Under Brazil's ex-president Bolsonaro, deforestation of the Amazon increased dramatically. An Austrian NGO filed a complaint to the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) against Bolsonaro in October 2021, accusing him of crimes against humanity against the backdrop of his involvement in environmental destruction. This paper deals with the question of whether this initi-ative constitutes a promising means of juridification to mitigate conflicts revolving around mass deforestation in Brazil. It thematizes attempts to juridify environmental destruction in international criminal law and examines the Climate Fund Case at the Brazilian Supreme Court. Finally, emerging problems and arguments in favour of starting preliminary examinations at the ICC against Bolsonaro are illuminated. This paper provides arguments as to why the initiative might be a promising undertaking, even though it is unlikely that Bolsonaro will be arrested.
Das Modell Friedland
(2022)
Mit dem Band 14 „Das Modell Friedland: Vom Zusammenleben deutscher, jüdischer und wendischer Bewohner in einer Niederlausitzer Kleinstadt“ haben die Herausgeber den Autoren Alfred Roggan und Tobias Preßler die Erweiterung ihrer Forschungen ermöglicht: Widmete sich deren Band 12 „Sorbische/Wendische Spuren in der nördlichen Niederlausitz“ (2019) noch Befunden einer binationalen, weil deutsch-wendischen Geschichte, so wird mit dem Band 14 erstmalig für Ostdeutschland die Dokumentation einer ‚trinationalen‘, also deutsch-jüdisch-wendischen Lebenswelt vorgenommen.
Die Untersuchungen verdeutlichen, wie sich drei, im 18. Jahrhundert annähernd gleich große Einwohner-Gruppen, mit ihren Gotteshäusern, ihren Sprachen und einem differenzierten Einwohnerstatus etablierten bzw. arrangiert haben. Es zeigten sich Alleinstellungsmerkmale in Lebens- sowie Kultorganisation, Wirtschaftstätigkeiten und der Kommunikation zwischen den Beheimateten. Mit der Amts-Verwaltung des Johanniter-Ritterordens und dem Stadtrat befanden sie sich in berechenbaren (deutschdominierten) Strukturen. Aus diesem Gefüge und der territorialen Grenzlage zum Kurfürstentum Brandenburg begründeten sich Bedingungen, ohne die es wohl zu keinem „Modell Friedland“ gekommen wäre.
Die Autoren sind dankbar, dass sich mit Friedland die gnädige Chance bot, einen Bereich zu untersuchen, in dem Prozesse der wendisch-deutschen Assimilierung in einer eigenen Stetigkeit abliefen, jedoch das Ende jüdischen Lebens auf die Abwanderungen infolge der preußischen Emanzipations-Gesetze des 19. Jahrhunderts und nicht auf die Demütigungen, Verfolgungen sowie dem Völkermord des faschistischen deutschen Staates, zurückzuführen sind.
National Action Plans (NAPs) have been increas-ingly adopted world-wide after the Vienna Dec-laration in 1993, where it was urged to consider the improvement and promotion of Human Rights. In this paper, we discuss their usefulness and success by analysing the challenges present-ed during NAP processes as well as the benefits this set of actions entails: The challenges for their implementation outweigh its actual benefits. Nevertheless, NAPs have great potential. Based on new research, we elaborate a set of recom-mendations for improving the design and imple-mentation of national action planning. In order to effectively bring NAP into practice, we consider it crucial to plan and analyse every state local circumstances in detail. The latter is important, since the implementation of a concrete set of actions is intended to directly transform and improve the local living conditions of the people. In a long-term perspective, we defend the benefit of NAP’s implementation for complying obliga-tions set up by HR treaties.
