| description | The great historian of the Mexican Revolution Friedrich Katz (Vienna 1924-Philadelphia 2010) has often been characterized as a Cosmopolitan intellectual. Was he? And if so, was he a Cosmopolitan by conviction and condition or because the circumstances formed him without his consent? Or did he inherit this identity from the life he shared with his parents and embraced it with pride? This article follows the young Friedrich Katz along the first stops in his exiled life and situates him in the political contexts and the “surrogate families” of International Communism and Jewish exile, among others. Between the social networks of his parents and his own appropriation of the Communist universe we find the structural conditions of a nascent cosmopolitan identity. |
