The essay develops a methodological approach to writing comparative history of everyday life and discusses methodological problems this involves. To empirically ground this discussion, it compares the working-class movements' reactions to the rise of the radical right in Leipzig and Lyon in the early 1930s. Methodologically, the essay argues for ‘dissecting’ stories, the ‘raw material’ historians of everyday life use, and comparing different aspects of such stories, for example the place where they take place or the tools actors use, This approach allows both for arriving at meaningful conclusions based on comparisons, and maintaining the sense of complexity and ‘messiness’ that characterizes the history of everyday life. A comparative approach to the history of everyday life might thus be a way to integrate micro- and macro-historical approaches. Empirically, the essay suggests that the deep politicization of the working-class movement in Leipzig contributed to its rapid collapse, first because it made conflicts between Sccial Democrats and Communists an everyday experience for many activists, and second because these activists were so frustrated by politics that they turned away from politics altogether. In Lyon, in contrast, the relative weakness of a political working-class movement helps explain the initial success of the Popular Front.

In 1898 the Russian Empire opened a consulate in Tangier, its first formal diplomatic mission in Morocco. This article examines the reasons behind Russia's approaches to the Sultanate in the wider context of Russian relations with the Arab Middle East. Russia's policy toward Morocco reflected a desire to build influence in the Arab world through ‘soft’ power - peaceful diplomacy laden with benevolent cultural and economic values. Strikingly, much Russian diplomatic rhetoric emphasized or pretended to cultural commonalities between Russia and the Middle East, focused on shared experiences of Islam, to position Russia as an influential ‘honest broker’ between Morocco and encroaching Western imperialist powers. This did not prevent France's establishment of a protectorate in 1912, but Russian goals in Morocco remained consistent through the First World War and up to the time of the Revolution of 1917, and mirrored efforts elsewhere in the Arab world.

Abstract One root of the resurgence of interest in the place of religion in human affairs lies in the postmodernist critique of materialist explanations, combined with the heightened sense of living in a new, possibly ‘post-secular’, age distinct from classical modernity. Secular ideologies such as Marxism have lost ground since the end of the cold war saw the resurgence of ethnic and religious violence in some of the successor states to Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union. The theocratic character of the Iranian revolution and the rise of the religious right in the United States also help to explain why religion is the defining characteristic of the new order which Samuel Huntington portrays as the ‘clash of civilizations’. The events following 11 September 2001 have done little to distract from the preoccupation with religious fundamentalism.
