This edited collection analyses the reception of a selection of key
thinkers, and the dissemination of paradigms, theories and
controversies across the social sciences and humanities since 1945.
It draws on data collected from textbooks, curricula, interviews,
archives, and references in scientific journals, from a broad range
of countries and disciplines to provide an international and
comparative perspective that will shed fresh light on the
circulation of ideas in the social and human sciences. The
contributions cover high-profile disputes on methodology,
epistemology, and research practices, and the international
reception of theorists that have abiding and interdisciplinary
relevance, such as: Antonio Gramsci, Hannah Arendt, Karl Polanyi,
Pierre Bourdieu, Michel Foucault, Edward Said and Gayatri Spivak.
This important work will be a valuable resource to scholars of the
history of ideas and the philosophy of the social sciences; in
addition to researchers in the fields of social, cultural and
literary theory.

The French Writers' War, 1940-1953, is a remarkably thorough
account of French writers and literary institutions from the
beginning of the German Occupation through France's passage of
amnesty laws in the early 1950s. To understand how the Occupation
affected French literary production as a whole, Gisele Sapiro uses
Pierre Bourdieu's notion of the "literary field." Sapiro surveyed
the career trajectories and literary and political positions of 185
writers. She found that writers' stances in relation to the Vichy
regime are best explained in terms of institutional and structural
factors, rather than ideology. Examining four major French literary
institutions, from the conservative French Academy to the Comite
national des ecrivains, a group formed in 1941 to resist the
Occupation, she chronicles the institutions' histories before
turning to the ways that they influenced writers' political
positions. Sapiro shows how significant institutions and
individuals within France's literary field exacerbated their loss
of independence or found ways of resisting during the war and
Occupation, as well as how they were perceived after Liberation.
