Why do things change at certain times and not at others? The contributions collected in this volume approach this question from the perspective of threat. Defined as the self-alerting which goes on within societies and social groups, threats open up windows of opportunity for change - though not always the ones hoped for by those who raised the alarm in the first place. But once threatened, social orders previously taken for granted become visible, debateable and therefore changeable. Looking at the relationship between threat and social change with thematic, spatial and temporal foci, the contributions of this five-section volume treat topics ranging from systems of belief in Ancient Europe to droughts in twentieth century Australia, from medieval urban riots to organized crime and peaceful protest nowadays. With contributions by:Anna Ananieva, Matthias Becker, Phil Booth, Renate Dürr, Fernando Esposito, Ewald Frie, Klaus Gestwa, Rolf Haaser, Andreas Hasenclever, Rebecca Jones, Thomas Kohl, Beatrice von Lüpke, Mischa Meier, Klaus Ridder, Jan Sändig, Dennis Schmidt, Sebastian Schmidt-Hofner, Hannah Skoda, Holger Stritzel

Die Jahrzehnte um 1100 waren in Europa eine einschneidende, konfliktbeladene Wendezeit. Die Beiträge im Band gehen von Konflikten in unterschiedlichen Regionen aus und nehmen dabei ihre Zusammenhänge mit den übergreifenden Entwicklungslinien der Zeit in den Blick, um zu einem neuen, europäischen Bild des Wandels jenseits der etablierten Forschungsparadigmen (z.B. Investiturstreit, Kommunalisierung oder Feudalgesellschaft) zu gelangen.
