S03E07 Welche Geschichten des Historischen Seminars sind noch zu erzählen? Viele! Jose Cáceres Mardones und Maryam Joseph stellen kurz einige der Geschichten vor, die sie in den Folgen nicht erzählen konnten.

S03E06 Es gab einmal das Lizentiat. Von oben nach unten wurde aber ein neues System vorangetrieben: Bologna. Die Reform wandelte sich mehrmals um. Es änderte Strukturen und Denkweisen - brachte aber auch neues Leben am Historischen Seminar. Mit den Gästen Heinrich Christ, Christian Marek, Carlo Moos, Monika Dommann, Francesco Falone und Barbara Holler.

S03E05 Das Historische Seminar ist Erbe des Historismus. Leopold von Ranke war der Lehrer des Gründers vom Historischen Seminar: Max Büdinger. Somit wurde nicht nur die Wissenschaftlichkeit der neuen Disziplin gelehrt, sondern eben auch deren Vermännlichung fortgesetzt. Mit Gast Falko Schnicke.

S03E04 Erst 2003 wurden die ersten Professorinnen ans Historische Seminar berufen. Der Kampf für Gleichberechtigung wurde auf allen Ebenen geführt: Studentinnen, Dozentinnen und nun Professorinnen setzten sich kontinuierlich dafür ein. Mit Gästen Margrit Steinhauser, Hans-Jürg Fehr, Monika Dommann und Falko Schnicke.

S03E03 Globalgeschichte ist heutzutage in aller Munde. Dafür mussten die Studierende aber auch kämpfen. Die Rolle der “Dritten Welt” am Historischen Seminar wurde vor allem im Hinblick auf eine neue Berufung in den 80er-Jahren kräftig diskutiert. Mit Gästen Martin Dusinberre, Heinrich Christ, Margrit Steinhauser.

S03E02 Unmittelbar nach den 68er-Protesten gab es eine andere Art Revolution am Historischen Seminar: Die Studierenden durften nach einem langen Kampf endlich in der Seminarkonferenz beisitzen - nur eine der Debatten zwischen Studierenden und Professoren. Mit Gästen Hans-Jürg Fehr, Jakob Tanner, Margrit Steinhauser und Carsten Goehrke.

S03E01 Welche Geschichten über das Historische Seminar befinden sich in den Archiven? Viele! Mitbestimmung, Globalgeschichte, Gleichberechtigung, Historismus und Bologna sind nur einige davon. Maryam Joseph und Jose Cáceres Mardones stellen die neue Staffel vor.

S02E14 Mary O’Sullivan examines the contestations that go into ‘learning from the past’—in particular, from the Great Depression—and highlights the need for economists and historians to deconstruct the notion of ‘lessons’ from that past. Interviewed by Martin Dusinberre and Simon Teuscher; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E13 Sheldon Garon discusses how the habit of saving had to be learned in late-nineteenth century Japan as elsewhere in the world, thus debunking a wider narrative of Asian ‘culture’ being central to an individual’s relationship to money. Interviewed by Martin Dusinberre; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E12 Beshara Doumani explains what strategies had to be considered in planning for property devolution after death through the waqf in seventeenth- to nineteenth-century Ottoman Syria—and the wider significance of this story for understanding the role of the family in Middle Eastern history. Interviewed by Birgit Tremml-Werner and Martin Dusinberre; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E11 Joel Kaye shows how medieval scholars engaged with the so-called ‘commercial revolution’ of Europe’s late Middle Ages in order to conceptualize the ‘market’ in new ways and thereby develop a new model of equilibrium in economics, politics and science. Interviewed by Martin Dusinberre and Birgit Tremml-Werner; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E10 Nadin Hée takes the example of tuna fishing as a departure point both for considering Japan’s engagement with transpacific markets and also as a way for understanding the significance of the ‘pelagic’ empire for the wider history of resource extraction. Interviewed by Birgit Tremml-Werner and Martin Dusinberre; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E09 Antoine Acker examines the transformation of Brazilian society, and of debates about national wealth and Brazil’s place in the industrialized world, following the discovery of oil in the 1930s. Interviewed by Martin Dusinberre and Birgit Tremml-Werner; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E08 Iris Borowy presciently argues that health is the key prerequisite for global wealth creation—although, paradoxically, historical data show that during periods of economic expansion, people’s health tends to suffer. Interviewed by Martin Dusinberre and Birgit Tremml-Werner; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E07 Eva Brugger reconstructs the importance of the beaver fur trade to the seventeenth-century Dutch colony of New Amsterdam as a case study for how early modern empires projected a vision of future wealth for potential settlers and investors. Interviewed by Birgit Tremml-Werner and Martin Dusinberre; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E06 Giorgio Riello examines how the early modern cotton industry offers an entry point into debates over the ‘great divergence’ in wealth between Europe and Asia, including the need for scholars to rethink meanings of ‘luxury’ in global history. Interviewed by Birgit Tremml-Werner and Martin Dusinberre; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E05 Regina Grafe argues that historians fundamentally misunderstand the early modern Spanish empire when they suggest that it was characterised by the extraction and transfer of silver from Latin America to the European metropole. Interviewed by Birgit Tremml-Werner and Martin Dusinberre; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E04 Jeremy Davies explains why an understanding of the Anthropocene should be central to an understanding of wealth inequalities in history—and why alternative terms, such as the Capitalocene, do not advance the debate. Interviewed by Martin Dusinberre and Birgit Tremml-Werner; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E03 Corinna Unger offers a history of development over the twentieth century, considering the ways in which development assistance tries to address problems that emerged from colonialism and from wealth inequalities more generally. Interviewed by Martin Dusinberre and Birgit Tremml-Werner; produced by Dario Willi.

S02E02 Simon Teuscher explores the thematic relevance of ‘wealth’ as a topic of study for historians, focusing in particular on some of the surprising continuities between wealth management in the medieval and modern worlds. Interviewed by Birgit Tremml-Werner and Martin Dusinberre; produced by Dario Willi.
