✦ Synopsis
This article investigates the historical fine structure of the establishment of the American system of mathematical research publishing both quantitatively and qualitatively, with particular reference to German-American relations between 1878 and 1945. On the basis of mostly unpublished material, it focuses on the policies of the American Mathematical Society, the German publishing house Springer-Verlag, and the American Alien Property Custodian during World War II. The historical case study will offer a basis for conclusions about the processes of ''internationalization'' and ''modernization'' of mathematics in this century. © 1997 Academic Press Statya analiziruet podem amerikanskoi sistemy matematiko-issledovatelskogo opublikovaniya mezhdu 1878 i 1945 g. v kontekste nemetsko-amerikanskikh matematicheskikh otnoshenii. V chastnosti issleduyutsya deistviya amerikanskogo matematicheskogo obshchestva, nemetskogo izdatelstva Springera i amerikanskoi gosudarstvennoi agentury APC, kot. organizovala perepechatku nemetskikh matematicheskikh zurnalov i knig vo vremya Vtoroi Mirovoi Voiny. Issledovaniya predstavlyaet material, kot. mozhet oblegchat diskussiyu o protsessakh 'internatsionalizirovaniya' i 'modernizatsii' matematiki v dvadtsatom veke.
