CFP: GSA Annual Conference, Portland, Oct. 3-6 2019. Panel: Radical Change, Boycott, and Protest in Germany, 1815 - 1919
How successul -- or unsuccessful -- were movements for radical change in Germany during the "Long Nineteenth Century?" From the Wartburg Festival to 1848, from 1870s anarchism to economic walk-outs (and their suppression) during the early twentieth century, to, finally, the political strikes of the First World War and ultimately the German Revolution of 1918, this panel wants to trace sociopolitical unrest in its various forms from the end of the Napoleonic Wars up to the founding of the first German republic.
