	CER \| Book Review: A biography of enigmatic historian E H Carr
		The name E H Carr still provokes varied responses reflective of the many aspects of his career.
		Carr would live out the remainder of his life as a Fellow of Trinity College at Cambridge, constantly quarreling and convinced of capitalism's imminent demise.
		Had Carr lived long enough to see the passing of the old guard, one wonders what he would have turned to when the revolution he believed to be the true carrier of the world's future vanished without a trace just a few short years later.

	Edward Hallett Carr - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Edward Hallett Carr (1892–1982) was a British historian and international relations theorist.
		Carr's writings include biographies of Feodor Dostoyevsky (1931), Karl Marx (1934), and Mikhail Bakunin (1937), as well as important studies on international relations and his History of Soviet Russia (9 vol., 1950–71).
		Carr is most famous today for his examination of historiography, What is History?

	Reappraisals: What is History?
		In the end Carr realises how close to the postempiricist wind he is running, so he rejects Collingwood's insistence on the empathic and constitutive historian, replacing her with another who, while accepting the model of a dialogue between past events and future trends, still believes a sort of objectivity can be achieved.
		The American historian James D. Winn accepts this Carr model of the objective historian when he says that deconstructionist historians "...tend to flog extremely dead horses" as they accuse other historians of believing history is knowable, that words reflect reality, and their un-reflexive colleagues still insist on seeing the facts of history objectively.
		For most objective historians of the Carr variety, his thinking provides a more sympathetic definition of history than the positivist one it has replaced, simply because it is more conducive to the empirical historical method, and one which appears to be a reasoned and legitimate riposte to the deconstructive turn.

	Books : Twenty Years' Crisis, 1919-1939 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Carr's classic work on international relations published in 1939 was immediately recognized by friend and foe alike as a defining work.
		Here's a case in point: Carr spends nearly the entire book ripping apart utopianism and pluralism, as any "good realist" would be apt to do, only to reach the last chapter where he declares liberalism is the only hope for mankind.
		But E.H. Carr preceded both these fine gentlemen, and Carr is at his finest here displaying a sarcastic wit and overall nasty tone in ripping apart the overly idealistic liberal position adopted by Wilson, Kellogg or Briand, who really thought that world peace could be had through ineffectual action via international organizations and...

		Carr quoted the political scientist, Harold Laswell, for whom the central lesson of the conflict of 1914-18 was that “psychological war must accompany economic war and military war”.
		Carr pointed out that it was the Catholic church which first realized the power of controlling the minds of the people.
		E.H. Carr made a distinction between international propaganda, aimed at delegitimizing foreign governments in the eyes of their citizens; and national propaganda, aimed at legitimizing one’s own government for one’s own citizens.

	Peter Wilson
		This is the Carr who: viewed the nation-state as obsolescent; who saw sovereignty as ever more blurred and indistinct; who argued for the sacrificing of economic advantage for social ends and the extension of these social ends beyond the national frontier; who maintained that 'the main unifying purpose in the contemporary world...
		Carr's basic theme was that the foundations of the nineteenth century international order had collapsed, and that the doctrines of international law, international morality, and international organisation that were current in the interwar period failed to take account of this fact.
		Carr disparaged the nineteenth century liberal view of progress based on the rational utility-maximising individual, not on the grounds that it was wrong per se, but on the grounds that the conditions in which it could take root and thrive no longer existed.

		Carr's apparent coldness can be explained in terms of a stiflingly conventional upbringing, which left him unable to express his own emotions or cope with strong emotion in others.
		Carr spent much of his life, then, in studying a single revolution, one that shaped our entire century and which he believed was the carrier of humanity's future - but whose legacy had, within a few years of his death, vanished almost without trace.
		Unlike Carr, whose vision rarely extended beyond Europe and America, Halliday's is a truly global overview - and the most stimulating study of its subject to appear in many years.

		E.H. Carr's primary argument is that the interpretation of history from certain historians is dependent upon their position in society, and indeed are formulated by society's view of the period.
		Carr begins his answer to 'what is history?' by articulating what he thinks history is, but not from a negative position.
		For Carr the empirical theory of knowledge is taken as a precondition for the severance of subject and object.

		Through a series of witty and perfectly executed pen-portraits, Carr brings to life a fascinating group of liberal propagandists, exiled anarchists, dissident aristocrats, and, inevitably, the occasional police spy, steering the reader through their conspiratorial entanglements.
		E.H. Carr's moving account has all the qualities of an epic nineteenth-century novel, considering events from a variety of points of view and presenting a vast range of colorful characters whose individual complexities combine to embody the collective beliefs to which he pays tribute.
		E.H. Carr was one of the most influential British historians of the twentieth century as well as a distinguished journalist and assistant editor of The Times.

		Carr is widely remembered as an influential theorist of international relations.
		But Carr's realism differed greatly from that of his contemporaries: a vigorous advocate of social and economic planning and friend of the Soviet Union, he stood closer to Lenin than to Morgenthau.
		Close attention is paid to the period from 1936, when Carr left the Foreign Office, through his subsequent career as a one-man foreign ministry at Aberystwyth, the Ministry of Information, and above all The Times, culminating in the final frustration of his schemes for continued British world power in 1947.

		Edward Hallet Carr is renowned as the historian of Soviet Russia, biographer of The Romantic Exiles, founder of the “realist” approach to the study of International Relations and author of the classic Trevelyan lecture series, What Is History?

		Seconded from Cambridge to the Foreign Office during World War I to administer the Allied blockade of the new Soviet Republic and attending the postwar Paris peace talks on behalf of the British, Carr witnessed at first hand the unfolding drama of the revolution which was to become the centerpiece of his life's work.

		When Ranke in the 1830's, in legitimate protest against moralizing history, remarked that the task of the historian was "simply to show how it really was (wie es eigentlich gewesen)" this not very profound aphorism had an astonishing success.
		The Positivists, anxious to stake out their claim for history as a science, contributed the weight of their influence to the cult of facts.
		My first answer therefore to the question, What is history?, is that it is a continuous process of interaction between the historian and his facts, an unending diologue between the present and the past.

		Professor Munslow contends that 'Carr's insistence that history should be politically relevant was an inspiration in the heady days of 1968.

		Alun Munslow also writes a reappraisal of E.H. Carr's work and 'his contribution to the analytical philosophy of history' in particular.
