His current research revolves around two projects: the relationship between race and rumour in Fifth Republic France, and a microhistory of an Algerian man in the 19th century who manipulated information to generate a large-scale scandal. Exciting stuff!

Hanno& #39;s current research focusses on two themes: the history of anti- #communism in #Germany, and the history of the colour #red & the symbolism of the red flag, which traces the politicisation of that colour - a fascinating and wide-ranging approach!
