Recenzii
In the end, this book makes powerful interventions in a seemingly well-trodden field. Erlichman and Knowles show that when we revise the conceptual framework, occupied Germany continues to have contemporary salience. Consequently, this book is a necessary addition to the bookshelf of every historian of post-war Germany, Europe, and the Cold War, and would sit nicely in any interested reader's collection.
[.] adopting a new approach, this stimulating volume of essays offers fascinating insights into the period of occupation in the British, French and US zones.
[This] volume is timely and will be crucial reading for scholars of political transition and those who wish to encourage further study in order to contribute positively to the aftermath of conflict and military occupation wherever it occurs.
Each of the fifteen chapters adds something valuable to the existing scholarship and ensures that studies of the post-Second World War occupation of Germany will continue to develop and diversify for the foreseeable future ... An excellent summary of many of the key elements of the Allied occupation of Germany.
By showcasing military occupation as a subject in its own right, the volume explores interactions alongside outcomes and legacies of these occupations for both the occupiers and the occupied in a comparative and transnational framework, and by doing so it makes itself indispensable to post-war syllabi.
Succeeds in showing that the occupation should be studied as a complex period in its own right, which had a long-term impact not only on Germany, but also on the occupiers.
This is an exceptionally valuable volume that brings together a first-rate group of historians. It belongs on the bookshelf of anyone interested in postwar Germany or the long legacies of the Allied occupation.
This outstanding collection sheds fascinating new light on many diverse aspects of the occupation of western Germany after 1945. More than this, however, it asks that we rethink our understanding of occupation in modern history in more general terms. As such, it will be crucial reading for scholars of political transition in a wide variety of different fields.
This collection offers new insights on familiar questions and opens new lines of inquiry regarding the occupation of western Germany in the wake of the Second World War. A diverse group of younger and more established scholars examine multiple aspects of developments in all three zones from perspectives of legal, political, economic, social, cultural, and gender history. Framed in terms of occupation, the volume underscores the inherently coercive aspects of the situation, while illuminating the agency of both the occupiers and the occupied. Often casting a critical eye on the planning and practices of the western powers, the authors recount fascinating stories of conflict and cooperation between victors and vanquished that reveal the contingency and complexity of the history of occupied Germany.
These detailed studies are an important corrective to a simplistic understanding of occupation policy.
