‘Cajetan Iheka and Jack Taylor’s edited collection is a refreshing addition to the scholarship on African migration. Not only does it privilege and represent the dynamics of African migration across different countries in Africa, through its representation of migration from different cultural productions, it emphasizes that toadequately understand an issue that has seemingly defined a people, all systems and genres of cultural production and means of self-representation should be assessed.’ AFRICAN STUDIES QUARTERLY.

Cajetan Iheka’s research and teaching focus on African and Caribbean literatures and film, postcolonial studies, ecocriticism, ecomedia, and world literature.

The Red Vienna SourcebookZechner, Ingo / Spitaler, Georg / McFarland, Rob (editors)Boydell & Brewer . Camden House9781640140677768 pagespaperback$49.95Pub Date: 10/1/2020Studies in German Literature Linguistics and Culture. 37 black and white illustrations. 10 x 7

While Weimar Germany makes a fascinating backdrop, its story does not inspire much hope for our present-day political and cultural woes. A fascinating contrast is the Austrian capital, Vienna. After the First World War the former imperial city elected a Social Democratic majority that persisted into the 1930s. "Red Vienna" undertook large-scale experiments in public housing, hygiene, and education, whilemaintaining a world-class presence in music, literature, art, culture, and science.

Rob McFarland is Professor of German Literature, Film and Culture at Brigham Young University. Georg Spitaler is a researcher at the Austrian Labor History Society. Ingo Zechner is Director of the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Digital History.
