Stefan Berger

    1 gennaio 1964

    Stefan Berger è Professore di Storia Sociale presso l'Università Ruhr di Bochum. La sua competenza risiede nel nazionalismo e negli studi sull'identità nazionale, nella storiografia e nella teoria storica, negli studi comparativi sul lavoro e nella storia del patrimonio industriale. Il suo lavoro approfondisce la complessa evoluzione delle identità nazionali e l'impatto duraturo delle eredità industriali sulle società. Berger cerca di colmare il divario tra quadri teorici e rigorosa indagine storica, offrendo prospettive sfumate sul passato e sui suoi echi nel presente.

    Writing the History of Memory
    • How objective are our history books? This addition to the Writing History series examines the critical role that memory plays in the writing of history. This book includes: - Essays from an international team of historians, bringing together analysis of forms of public history such as museums, exhibitions, memorials and speeches - Coverage of the ancient world to the present, on topics such as oral history and generational and collective memory - Two key case studies on Holocaust memorialisation and the memory of Communism

      The first book of its kind to describe the art of NMR using everyday examples. This textbook will not only fascinate students wanting to learn about the topic, but also those experienced analytical chemists who are still inspired by their profession. The contents provide for easy reading by using natural products that everyone knows, such as caffeine, backed by an attractive layout with many pictures to visualize the topics. In addition, an in-depth analytical part makes the book a valuable teaching tool, or for self-learning using the questions and answers at the end of each chapter.

      A Practical Course

      • 854pagine
      • 30 ore di lettura

      This work-book provides step-by-step guidance through NMR experiments, starting with 1D routines and advancing to complex 3D experiments on proteins. It addresses key questions such as which experiment yields the desired information, how to perform it, how to interpret spectra, and the workings of specific pulse sequences. The third edition has been thoroughly revised and expanded to include 206 experiments across 15 chapters, covering a range of topics from routine spectra and variable temperature measurements to 1D multipulse experiments and solid-state materials. Notably, it introduces 3D experiments on the protein ubiquitin, consisting of 76 amino acids. This edition features 24 new experiments integrated into the existing chapters, including techniques like alpha/beta-SELINCOR-TOCSY and DOSY. Additionally, Chapter 15 introduces 20 new protein NMR experiments that require a special model sample of fully 13C- and 15N-labeled human ubiquitin, utilizing advanced techniques such as the constant time principle and gradient selection. Written by field experts, the guide emphasizes a hands-on approach, with all experiments performed as described and illustrated in the spectra. Serving as both a reference and a textbook, it is essential for scientists and students engaged in NMR laboratory work.

      The book explores the influence of history on national identities through a transnational lens, featuring insights from experts across five continents. It examines how the professionalization and institutionalization of history writing contribute to the nationalization of historical narratives, highlighting the complex interplay between history and identity formation in various contexts.

      Writing the Nation
    • This is a pioneering comparative study of the early years of the British Labour Party and the German Social Democratic Party. Drawing on a wealth of primary sources in both countries, Berger argues that the traditional view of deep-seated cultural and ideological differences between the two labor movements must be revised. His controversial conclusions will open up a new perspective on old debates.

      The British Labour Party and the German social democrats
    • The Historikerstreit of the 1980s has ended inconclusively amidst heated debates on the nature and course of German national history. The author follows the debates beyond the unexpected reunification of the country in 1990 and analyzes the most recent trends in German historiography. Reunification, he observes, has brought in its wake an urgent search for the "normality" of the nation state. For anyone interested in the development of the national master narrative in more recent German historiography, this book will provide an essential guide through the multitude of historical debates surrounding the nation state.

      The search for normality
    • Social movements have shaped and are shaping modern societies around the globe; this is evident when we look at examples such as the Arab Spring, Spain’s Indignados and the wider Occupy movement. In this volume, experts analyse the ‘classic’ and new social movements from a uniquely global perspective and offer insights in current theoretical discussions on social mobilisation. Chapters are devoted both to the study of continental developments of social movements going back to the nineteenth century and ranging to the present day, and to an emphasis on the transnational dimension of these movements. Interdisciplinary and truly international, this book is an essential text on social movements for historians, political scientists, sociologists, philosophers and social scientists.

      This introduction to contemporary historical theory and practice shows how issues of identity have shaped how we write history. Stefan Berger charts how a new self-reflexivity about what is involved in the process of writing history entered the historical profession and the part that historians have played in debates about the past and its meaningfulness for the present. He introduces key trends in the theory of history such as postmodernism, poststructuralism, constructivism, narrativism and the linguistic turn and reveals, in turn, the ways in which they have transformed how historians have written history over the last four decades. The book ranges widely from more traditional forms of history writing, such as political, social, economic, labour and cultural history, to the emergence of more recent fields, including gender history, historical anthropology, the history of memory, visual history, the history of material culture, and comparative, transnational and global history.
