British Envoys to the Kaiserreich, 1871-1897 concentrates on Anglo-German history prior to German Weltpolitik. The first volume presents official diplomatic reports from the British embassy at Berlin (German Empire) and from the four minor - however still independent - diplomatic missions in Darmstadt (Hesse and Baden), Dresden (Saxony), Stuttgart (Württemberg), and Munich (Bavaria) during the years 1871 to 1883. The selection reveals the attitudes of British observers and their perceptions of a wide variety of political, social and cultural developments in a period of great diplomatic activity and changing Anglo-German relations. The dispatches offer new perspectives on Bismarck's imperial chancellorship, on the integration of the federal states into the new Kaiserreich, and on the varied British interests in Germany and its regional peculiarities. This title is also available as Open Access.

Corruption does not exist in the German Empire? Anna Rothfuss questions this common declaration by contemporaries and successfully shows that despite such self-affirmations, German society between 1871 and 1914 talked not only frequently but continuously about corruption. Not least, powerful names such as Bismarck and Krupp were topics of corruption debates and scandals. As an essential component of political communication, all political protagonists instrumentalised communication about corruption, which allowed them to partly expand their scope of action beyond constitutional restrictions. In addition, Rothfuss' research demonstrates that in parallel the normative judgement of corrupt actions unified over time.

British Envoys to the Kaiserreich, 1871-1897 concentrates on Anglo-German history prior to German Weltpolitik. Volume II presents official diplomatic reports from the British embassy at Berlin (German Empire) and from the four independent legations in Darmstadt (Hesse and Baden), Dresden (Saxony), Stuttgart (Württemberg), and Munich (Bavaria) during the years 1884 to 1897. The selection reveals the attitudes and perceptions of British observers in a period of great diplomatic activity and complex Anglo-German relations. The dispatches offer new perspectives on the rise of German colonialism and imperialism, the early years of Wilhelm II's reign, the final years of Bismarck's chancellorship and the New Course under his successor Leo von Caprivi, as well as on the varied British interests in Germany and its regional peculiarities. They also mirror the diplomats' increasing attention to German press coverage of both domestic and foreign affairs, and especially to Anglophobic tendencies in German public opinion.

Das Buch analysiert das Wirken des hamburgischen Unternehmers Carl Hagenbeck (1844-1913) in einem interdisziplinären Ansatz. Es stellt die verschiedenen Zweige des «Geschäfts mit der Exotik» vor: den internationalen Tierhandel, Völkerschauen, Tierdressuren, die Neuentwicklung der Tierschaustellung in Panoramen sowie Hagenbecks Tierpark in Hamburg. Die Freisichtanlagen Hagenbecks veränderten die Konzeption der Zoogehege-Gestaltung im 20. Jahrhundert. Die Arbeit bindet das Wirken Carl Hagenbecks in die politisch-soziale Kultur seiner Zeit ein. Sie leistet einen Beitrag zur Geschichte der Zoologischen Gärten, des Tierhandels sowie des Natur- und Tierverständnisses im Deutschen Kaiserreich.

English summary: In this volume the author studies the rise and development of the German social state up to 1914 in a European context. She asks what the conditions were that led to the development of a social democracy, the actual administrative practices and the fundamental repercussions for the nation of installing social insurance. She also touches on the particular situation of women and the role of healthcare politics. This study show that the German social state was an outgrowth of the existing social practices, and that its rise was part of an overall development throughout Europe.
