Read CAS Director Alice Lovejoy's recent piece in @thenation.com on the similarities between Czechoslovakia in 1968 and Minneapolis in 2026 www.thenation.com/article/arch...

This Minnesota Winter Is the New Prague Spring
I’ve studied Czechoslovakia in 1968. I live in Minneapolis. The similarities between the historic invasion and the current ICE “surge” are scary.

Wie heißt es so schön, in eigener Sache: Ich habe gerade die Druchfahnen meines neuen Buches durchgesehen. Es wird Anfang September bei Böhlau erscheinen und stellt den Abschluss meines "Trümmerfrauen"-Projekts dar:
Ein Buchcover mit einem Trümmerhaufen im Vordergrund, im Hintergrund die Votivkirche. Der Text lautet: Ruinen der Erinnerung. Die Suche nach der österreichischen Trümmerfrau. Martin Tschiggerl

A popular joke about an imagined inhabitant of #CentralEurope hinges on their ambivalence to the shifting national boundaries around them. Born in Hungary, apprenticed in Czechoslovakia, fought in Hungary, became a Soviet citizen, and settled in Ukraine, all while never leaving their home town.

The idea of Austrian "Trümmerfrauen" and their sacrifices reconstructing post-WWII Vienna has provided a positive reconstruction myth and opportunities to valorize the suffering of former National Socialists as themselves victimized. But who actually cleared the rubble from postwar Vienna? #History
