Through a series of interdisciplinary essays ranging from 1850 to the European Union of today, this collection explores the idea that Germany s relationship with Poland and Eastern Europe had many similarities to the practice of "overseas" colonialism. As the contributing scholars aptly demonstrate, the history of Germany s relationship with Poland contains all the trappings of the classic colonial encounter, from its structures of power and control, racism and cultural chauvinism, to the implementation of wholesale scientific experimentation in a "lawless" environment.Studies in European Culture and HistoryEurope—HistoryHistory, ModernRussia—HistoryEurope, Eastern—HistoryEurope, Central—HistoryEuropean Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717000Modern Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/713000Russian, Soviet, and East European Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717090History of Germany and Central Europehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717060GermanyForeign relations1871-GermanyPolitics and government1871-GermanyForeign relationsEurope, EasternEurope, EasternForeign relationsGermanyGermanyColoniesHistoryGermanyForeign relationsPolandPolandForeign relationsGermanyEurope—History.History, Modern.Russia—History.Europe, Eastern—History.Europe, Central—History.European History.Modern History.Russian, Soviet, and East European History.History of Germany and Central Europe.325.343Nelson Redthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910781094503321Germans, Poland, and Colonial Expansion to the East3841277UNINA
