Timeline

1920

"Growing up in Golders Green was a weird experience for me because this place has no history. It was a big revelation to discover that Golders Green in the 1920s was full of these super-important world anarchists, who were hanging out with my grandparents and recovering from the revolution. It suddenly made the whole place make sense."

During his youth, Mazower enjoyed reading classical literature and philosophy.

1924

Max was regularly arrested by the Tsarist police and was imprisoned twice in Siberia, before eventually fleeing the country and settling in England in 1924.

Mazower also discovered that his grandparents continued to hang out with Russian-Jewish revolutionaries in Golders Green.

Reflecting on the discovery, Mazower said:

1941

His book The Balkans won the Wolfson History Prize and Inside Hitler's Greece: The Experience of Occupation, 1941–44, both won the Longman History Today Award for Book of the Year.

Salonica, City of Ghosts: Christians, Muslims and Jews 1430–1950 was the Runciman Prize and Duff Cooper Prize winner and was shortlisted for the Hessell-Tiltman Prize.

In addition, Mazower is more broadly concerned with 20th-century European history.

His book Dark Continent: Europe's Twentieth Century argued that the triumph of democracy in Europe was not inevitable but rather the result of chance and political agency on the part of citizens, subjects and leaders.

In Hitler's Empire: Nazi Rule in Occupied Europe, Mazower compared Nazi German occupation policy in different European countries.

1958

Mark Mazower (born 20 February 1958) is a British historian.

His areas of expertise are Greece, the Balkans and, more generally, 20th-century Europe.

He is Ira D. Wallach Professor of History at Columbia University in New York City.

Mazower was born in Golders Green and spent most of his early life in north London.

His mother was a physiotherapist and his father worked for Unilever.

During his youth, Mazower enjoyed playing the French horn and composing classical music.

Mazower's father was of Russian Jewish descent.

When Mazower began to write his book What You Did Not Tell: A Russian Past and the Journey Home, he discovered that his grandfather, Max, was a member of the Bund, a Jewish socialist party, was involved in revolutionary activities, and helped print illegal books in Yiddish advocating socialism.

1981

Mazower received his BA in Classics and Philosophy from the University of Oxford in 1981 and his doctorate from the same university in 1988.

1983

He also holds an MA in International Affairs from Johns Hopkins University (1983).

Prior to his arrival at Columbia, Mazower taught at Birkbeck, University of London, the University of Sussex and Princeton University.

2002

Mazower has also written for newspapers since 2002 such as the Financial Times and for The Independent contributing articles on international affairs and book reviews.

He has been appointed to the Advisory Board of the European Association of History Educators (EUROCLIO).

He is a member of the Editorial Board for Past & Present.

Mazower has written extensively on Greek and Balkan history.

2009

Mazower's book, No Enchanted Palace, was published in 2009.

It narrates the origins of the United Nations and its strict ties to colonialism and its predecessor organisation, the League of Nations.

2012

In Governing the World (2012), this narrative is taken one step further, and the history of international organisations in general is evaluated, beginning with the Concert of Europe at the start of the nineteenth century.

2018

Mazower's 2018 inter-generational biography of his own family, What you did not tell, described their lives, education and politics and how it influences his interest in history, place, and the writing of biography.

Caroline Moorehead, an acclaimed biographer, on reviewing this book, wrote of his scholarly reconstruction of a family's life meticulously drawn from archives and collections of papers in the UK, Russia, Belgium and Israel and family diaries, letters and interviews.

Not simply a biographical narrative, Moorehead explains, since woven into it is a vast and rich picture of left wing European Jewry from the founding of the Bund workers' union.

His prodigious historical reach is matched by his affectionate portrait of a family and a people 'whose fight for justice was based on their own personal knowledge of poverty and exploitation.'

In his interview with Mazower, John Crace wrote Mazower "likes walking, football, swimming in Hampstead ponds and dislikes commuting and celebrity culture".

In 2021, he was awarded an honorary Greek citizenship for "the promotion of Greece, its long history and culture to the international general public."

Mazower's publications include:
