Review of Cornelissen & Mondini (Hrsg.) 2021: The Mediatization of War and Peace. The Role of the Media in Political Communication, Narratives, and Public Memory (1914–1939). Berlin: De Gruyter Oldenbourg.

Alexander Schwarz recently reviewed Cornelissen & Mondini’s new book, which focuses on the role of the media in transitioning from war to peace, with a particular emphasis on Italy. He highlights the book’s interdisciplinary approach and relevance in understanding historical transitions and media dynamics:

“Overall, the volume is a worthwhile read that is particularly interdisciplinary.

Alexander Schwarz is a PhD candidate and researcher within the BMBF-funded network “Conflicts.Meanings.Transitions”. His primary focus lies on post-World War I paramilitary groups, particularly the Freikorps, delving into the intersections of nationalism, antisemitism, and paramilitarism. His research explores themes of recruitment, violence dyamics, and societal transitions.
