Audio Review via Michael Novakhov on Inoreader

As the Second World War started, an unsung cadre of US librarians and other information management professionals was making its way to Europe to acquire printed material that could help American analysts understand international threats. As the war went on, the mission of these experts expanded to also include an unprecedented effort to locate, preserve, and ultimately decide what to do with millions of printed items of Nazi propaganda–and with the books and documents that Germany had seized and hidden during the war.

Professor Kathy Peiss, who teached in the Department of History at the University of Pennsylvania, joined host David Priess to discuss this, and more, including many stories from her compelling book Information Hunters: When Librarians, Soldiers, and Spies Banded Together in World War II Europe. They talked about the field of American Studies, her family connection that led her to study librarians and spies in World War II, the World War I-era connections between librarians and national security matters, the cooperation in the early 1940s between America’s emerging intelligence efforts and the Library of Congress, extraordinary women who worked to gather materials in war-torn Europe, advances in microfilm technology and use as a result of their efforts, tensions between the US and UK in open source collection, the vital role Lisbon played in information hunting during the war, unique aspects of the material acquisition and preservation effort as the war ended, the heated debate over the destruction of Nazi books, challenges involved in the return of recovered materials, and more. Including zoot suits. Yes, really.

South Caucasus News #SouthCaucasus #News #SouthCaucasusNews #Armenia #Azerbaijan #Georgia – The #INTERNATIONALIZATION of the #NagornoKarabakh (#Artsakh) conflict. The EU & US (the “Collective West”) and Nikol Pashinyan did one smart thing: they INTERNATIONALIZED the Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) conflict. Now it is not about Armenia vs Azerbaijan, it is the World (and UN) against the violations of the rights of the ethnic minorities, and, by association all Human Rights by the certain forces of Azerbaijan. Now, it is a different kind of the geopolitical balance, also spurred by the apparent stalemate (smelling of Russia’s defeat) in the Ukraine war.
