"This is an excellent collection. In its thematic breadth and its
broad geographical coverage it is quite distinctive." . Mark
Roseman, Indiana University, Bloomington
In 1945, Europeans confronted a legacy of mass destruction and
death: millions of families had lost their homes and livelihoods;
millions of men in uniform had lost their lives; and millions more
had been displaced by the war's destruction, and the genocidal
policies of the Nazi regime. From a range of methodological
historical perspectives-military, cultural, and social, to film and
gender and sexuality studies-this volume explores how Europeans
came to terms with these multiple pasts. With a focus on
distinctive national experiences in both Eastern and Western
Europe, it illuminates how postwar stabilization coexisted with
persistent insecurities, injuries, and trauma.
