Focusing on the heart of German romanticism, the Rhineland, Thomas Lekan examines nature protection activities from Wilhelmine Germany through the end of the Nazi era to illuminate the relationship between environmental reform and the cultural construction of national identity. In the late nineteenth century, anxieties about national character infused ecological concerns about industrialization, spurring landscape preservationists to protect the natural environment. In the Rhineland's scenic rivers, forests, and natural landmarks, they saw Germany as a timeless and organic nation rather than a recently patchworked political construct. Landscape preservation also served conservative social ends during a period of rapid modernization, as outdoor pursuits were promoted to redirect class-conscious factory workers and unruly youth from "crass materialism" to the German homeland. Lekan's examination of Nazi environmental policy challenges recent work on the "green" Nazis by showing that the Third Reich systematically subordinated environmental concerns to war mobilization and racial hygiene. This book is an original contribution not only to studies of national identity in modern Germany but also to the growing field of European environmental history. Table of Contents: Introduction 1. Nature's Homelands: The Origins of Landscape Preservation, 1885-1914 2. The Militarization of Nature and Heimat, 1914-1923 3. The Landscape of Modernity in theWeimar Era 4. From Landscape to Lebensraum: Race and Environment under Nazism 5. Constructing Nature in the Third Reich Conclusion Abbreviations Notes Sources Acknowledgments Index Writing squarely within the idiom of the 'invented tradition' and the 'imagined nation,' Thomas Lekan argues that in the wake of belated unification and at a time of rapid industrialization, the German landscape came to be seen as a touchstone of national identity. He questions the idea that those engaged in landscape preservation were simply 'antimodern,' and he challenges both scholars who have seen a straightforward continuity from pre-1933 preservationist sentiment to Nazism and those who have made exaggerated claims for the Third Reich as the progenitor of modern green politics. This is a welcome contribution to the literature on local and national identity, joining works by Celia Applegate and Alon Confino, and on the environmental history of modern Germany. Both scholarly and original, Imagining the Nation in Nature is an impressive achievement.--David Blackbourn, Harvard UniversityThis important and timely book contributes to our understanding of German identity as well as to modern concepts of environmentalism and nature. Lekan's valuable contribution elucidates the modern, technocratic, and therapeutic vision of preservation that linked Weimar and the Third Reich. His analysis of Nazi bio-nature is significant and thought-provoking.--Alon Confino, University of Virginia 606 $aLandscape protection$xSocial aspects$zGermany$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aLandscapes$xPsychological aspects$zGermany$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aNational socialism and science 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLandscape protection$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aLandscapes$xPsychological aspects$xHistory 615 0$aNational socialism and science. 676 $a333.72/0943/0904 686 $aAR 13120$2rvk 700 $aLekan$b Thomas M$01030475 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455159603321 996 $aImagining the nation in nature$92447375 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01674nam 2200541Ia 450 001 9910791827103321 005 20230721012835.0 010 $a1-61209-760-X 035 $a(CKB)2560000000070359 035 $a(EBL)3018919 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000469212 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12161657 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000469212 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10508771 035 $a(PQKB)11495479 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3018919 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3018919 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10662725 035 $a(OCoLC)698111662 035 $a(EXLCZ)992560000000070359 100 $a20090113d2009 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aFish consumption and health$b[electronic resource] /$feditors, George P.

Russian military aggression in the east and a legacy of destructive policies and corruption have created an imminent existential crisis for this young democracy. Yet Ukraine also has a great opportunity to break out of economic underperformance. In this study, Anders Åslund, one of the world's leading experts on Ukraine, traces Ukraine's evolution as a market economy starting with the fall of communism and examines the economic impact of its recent difficulties. Åslund argues that Ukraine must undertake sweeping political, economic, social, and government reforms to achieve prosperity and independence. For its part, the West must abandon its hesitant approach and provide broad economic assistane to Ukraine 606 $aPolitical corruption$zUkraine$2FBC 606 $aKrisestyring$2FBC 606 $aSikkerhedspolitik$2FBC 606 $aSocial change$zUkraine$2FBC 606 $aCrisis management in government$zUkraine$2FBC 606 $aUkraine$xPolitics and government$y1991- 606 $aUkraine$xEconomic policy$y1991- 606 $aUkraine$xMilitary policy 606 $aUkraine$xSocial policy 615 7$aPolitical corruption 615 7$aKrisestyring 615 7$aSikkerhedspolitik 615 7$aSocial change 615 7$aCrisis management in government 615 7$aUkraine$xPolitics and government 615 7$aUkraine$xEconomic policy 615 7$aUkraine$xMilitary policy. 615 7$aUkraine$xSocial policy. 686 $a327.5$2z 701 $aÅslund$b Anders$0556434 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797177003321 996 $aUkraine$93692875 997 $aUNINA
