Series: Studies in European History

This new study provides a concise, accessible introduction to occupied Europe. It gives a clear overview of the history and historiography of resistance and collaboration. It explores how these terms cannot be examined separately, but are always entangled.

Covering Europe from east to west, this book aims to explore the evolution of scholarly approaches to resistance and collaboration. Not limiting itself to any one area, it looks at armed struggle, daily life, complicity and rescue, the Catholic Church, and official and public memory since the end of the war.

Reviews for Resistance and Collaboration in Hitler's Empire

The book's usefulness goes beyond merely an introduction to the topic for students-it also presents a model for writing a transnational social history of lived experience under Nazi rule. (Rebecca Carter-Chand, Journal of Church and State, Vol. 61 (3), 2019) There is no doubt that Resistance and Collaboration is well worth perusing. The authors write in a lucid style and the book is superbly organized. For students and the reading public, it provides a comprehensively researched summary of both the topic and its historiographical legacy ... . (Perry Biddiscombe, H-France Review, Vol. 19 (26), 2019)
