| dc.description.abstract | In the 1890s German authorities began to move away from using the military for policing social and political unrest, while France did not experience similar movement until the 1920s. Johansen (U. of Dundee, UK) looks for the political and institutional causes of the differing development in a comparative examination of the recommendations of the two countries' interior ministries regarding protest in similar industrial regions: the Prussian province of Westphalia and the French region of Nord-Pas-de-Calais. Among the factors explored are the relative strengths of local police and gendarmerie forces, the comparative pressures coming from local elites and industrial interest groups, and the nature of coordination and cooperation between regional administrations and military authorities. | en |
