Mathias Haeussler is Assistant Professor of Modern European History in the Department of History at the University of Regensburg. He previously held research fellowships at Magdalene College, University of Cambridge, the German Historical Institute, and the Kluge Center at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C.
His research centers on modern European history with a focus on transnational and cultural dimensions. Key themes include German-British relations, Cold War cultural diplomacy, the global reception of American icons, and the social history of tourism in Imperial Germany. His work bridges national narratives with international and cultural perspectives.
Haeussler's publications reflect a strong engagement with how cultural figures and practices intersect with political and diplomatic history. His books Inventing Elvis: An American Icon in a Cold War World and Helmut Schmidt and British-German Relations: A European Misunderstanding exemplify this interdisciplinary approach, situating individuals within broader geopolitical contexts.
He is currently developing a book project on tourism in the German Empire around 1900, further expanding his exploration of mobility, identity, and international perceptions in modern Europe.
Dr. Haeussler has contributed to academic discourse through invited talks, including at the 'Uncertain Boundaries in International History' seminar series, highlighting his active role in contemporary historical scholarship.
