Veranstalter:H-Net Reviews

Liebe H-Soz-u-Kult Leserinnen und Leser,

H-Soz-u-Kult wurde im Jahr 1996 als primär deutschsprachiger Ableger des amerikanischen H-Net (Humanities and Social Sciences Online) gegründet und gehört diesem großen Verbund von internetbasierten Fachforen bis heute an. In diesem Jahr nahm das H-Net für die angeschlossenen Fachforen ein gemeinsames Redaktionssystem für Rezensionen in Betrieb, auf dessen Internetpräsenz Sie über die Adresse <www.h-net.org/reviews> zugreifen können. Darüber sind nunmehr auch wieder alle Rezensionen von H-Soz-u-Kult redundant zur Webpräsenz von H-Soz-u-Kult an der Berliner Humboldt-Universität zugänglich.

Wir nehmen dies zum Anlass, Sie fortan regelmäßig über Rezensionen zu informieren, die von unseren Partnerforen im H-Net-Verbund in den zurückliegenden Wochen neu veröffentlich wurden. Mit diesem Dienst hoffen wir Ihnen einen besseren Zugang zu aktuellen amerikanischen bzw. angelsächsischen Publikationen liefern zu können. Die von H-Soz-u-Kult veröffentlichten Rezensionen filtern wir aus den Aufstellungen heraus und listen Ihnen nachfolgend nur die Rezensionen, die in den vergangenen beiden Wochen von anderen Fachforen des H-Net veröffentlicht wurde.

In diesem Zusammenhang möchten wir Ihnen den aktuellen Spendenaufruf des Präsidenten des H-Net, Frank F. Conlon, ans Herz legen: <www.h-net.org/announce>. Die Spendenseite des H-Net finden Sie unter der Adresse < www.h-net.org/donations>.

Im Namen der H-Soz-u-Kult Redaktion
Rüdiger Hohls
