Palestine for the Third Time is a book of reportage originally published |
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in Poland in 1933 by Ksawery Pruszyński, a young reporter working for a Polish newspaper, who went to Mandate Palestine to see for himself whether the Zionist dream of returning to Eretz Yisrael had a chance of turning into reality. Travelling widely and talking to people he happened to meet on his way—Jews, Arabs, committed dreamers and the disaffected—he was trying to explain to his readers what he was seeing. This book is a unique firsthand account of the early stages in formation of the state and nation of Israel. But it's not just a nostalgic vignette. It resonates powerfully today, linking Tony Judt, Edward Said, and Amos Oz, illuminating the hotly debated questions of modern Israel. |

A history of Austria's Chambers of Engineers This book is the first history of Austria's Chambers of Chartered Engineering Consultants from the foundation of the institution of chartered engineering consultants in 1860 up to the Ziviltechnikergesetz of 1957. In addition to tracing the history of the organization, the book tackles head-on the controversial issue of collaboration with the Nazi regime and the fate of those chartered engineering consultants who were persecuted.

biographies reveal the extent of the chambers' autonomy and show how members' careers were made and broken during this period, as well as discriminatory measures. A special concern of this book is to keep alive the memory of those chartered engineering consultants who fell victim to the Nazi regime. With this thorough and scientific reappraisal, Austria's Federal Chamber of Chartered Engineering Consultants has taken an important step in taking responsibility for its own history. An important contribution to the historical reappraisal of the Nazi period and the history of Austria's institutions Selected biographies of chartered engineering consultants With contributions by Ingrid Holzschuh, Inge Korneck, and Alexandra Wachter, as well as numerous historical illustrations and infographics |
Über die Geschichte der österreichischen Ingenieurkammern Das vorliegende Buch untersucht erstmals die Geschichte der österreichischen Ingenieurkammern und ihrer Mitglieder von der Gründung des Ziviltechnikerwesens 1860 bis zum Ziviltechnikergesetz 1957. Der Fokus liegt neben der Rekonstruktion der Organisationsgeschichte auf der Aufarbeitung der Kollaboration mit dem NS-Regime und dem Schicksal jener Ziviltechniker:innen, die verfolgt wurden. Ausgewählte Biografien machen Handlungsspielräume innerhalb der Kammern, Karriereverläufe und -brüche von Mitgliedern und Auswirkungen diskriminierender Maßnahmen sichtbar. Ein besonderes Anliegen ist dabei, die Erinnerung an jene Ziviltechniker:innen wachzuhalten, die dem NS-Regime zum Opfer fielen. Mit der wissenschaftlichen Aufarbeitung der Kammergeschichte übernimmt die Bundeskammer der Ziviltechniker:innen eine wichtige Verantwortung. Ein zentraler Beitrag zur Aufarbeitung der NS-Zeit und der Institutionengeschichten in Österreich Wissenschaftliche Aufarbeitung exemplarischer Biografien von Ziviltechniker:innen Mit Beiträgen von Ingrid Holzschuh, Inge Korneck und Alexandra Wachter sowie mit zahlreichen historischen Abbildungen und Infografiken |
