Book Review

Radio Welten. Politische, soziale, und kulturelle Aspekte atlantischer Mediengeschichte vor und während des Zweiten Weltkriegs (Radio worlds. Political, social, and cultural aspects of transatlantic media history before and during World War II). Ed. by M. Michaela Hampf and Ursula Lehmkuhl. (Münster: lit, 2006. 136 pp. €19.90, ISBN 3-8258-8736-7.) In German.

This small volume brings together selected papers and commentary about radio from the 2002 Krefeld Historical Symposium, all of which has been published in English (see Norbert Finzsch and Ursula Lehmkuhl, eds., Atlantic Communications: The Media in American German History from the Seventeenth to the Twentieth Century [2004] [reviewed in the JAH, Dec. 2005, p. 948]). Radio Welten focuses on comparisons between radio as a medium, as an evolving technology, and as a force in everyday life, in Germany and the United States. Though the volume's subtitle promises "before and during World War II," the essays, in fact, touch on the earliest years of radio and have a good bit to say about radio after 1945.
