This is a study of the web of decisions and events that led to the Holocaust. It works as both a factual reconstruction and as a close interpretation, as well as providing an analysis of the initially uncertain but, in the end, implacable process that, triggered by specific circumstances, led from the ideological premises to the murderous outcome.

Hodder Headline

From 1940 to 1944, the French people adapted in a variety of ways to life under the domination of Nazi Germany. France under the Germans is the definitive study of the choices made by ordinary French citizens during that turbulent historical period, exposing for the first time the degree of their complicity with the Nazis. Acclaimed Swiss historian Philippe Burrin makes use of a wide variety of newly discovered sources: the records of businesses, industrial organizations, and banks; police files; and reports on mail censorship and telephone conversations. France under the Germans is an extraordinary analysis of the ways in which people respond under extreme pressure, and of how people can betray not only their countries but themselves.

POINTS

Durante cuatro años, los franceses vivieron bajo la dominación de la Alemania nazi. Reaccionaron a esta situación extraordinaria de distintas formas: algunos, oponiéndose a ella; la mayoría, sometiéndose y resignándose; y otro grupo, bastante numeroso, adaptándose o intentando establecer un pacto con el vencedor. Este libro intenta analizar por primera vez las reacciones de la sociedad francesa ante la presencia del ocupante: el gobierno de Vichy, los grupos políticos, la opinión pública, la Iglesia, los empresarios, los banqueros, los editores, los escritores... Y para ello estudia la diversidad y la evolución de sus comportamientos, desde el compromiso colaboracionista hasta las formas más cotidianas, manifiestas o subrepticias de cohabitar con los vencedores: la búsqueda de trabajo, el aprendizaje del alemán, los contactos con el ocupante, las visitas a conciertos o conferencias organizados por los nazis... Ante una situación extraordinaria, los franceses tuvieron que establecer la línea divisoria entre lo aceptable y lo inaceptable, distinguir entre lo digno y lo indigno, entre el bien y el mal, a partir de la imagen que tenían de sí mismos, de su país y de sus intereses. El resultado de su respuesta ambigua y vacilante fue una herida que todavía permanece abierta.
