The Town of Vichy and the Politics of Identity: Stigma, Victimhood and Decline

The Town of Vichy and the Politics of Identity: Stigma, Victimhood and Decline by Kirrily Freeman
English | EPUB | 2022 | 149 Pages | ISBN : 303093196X | 31.9 MB

“In a cautionary tale of the challenges facing a company town trying to control its ‘brand,’ Kirrily Freeman explores the complicated roots of the town of Vichy's sense of identity. While ‘Vichy’ is now synonymous with the collaborationist regime of Marshal Pétain, the roots of this town's sense of identity, and of aggrievement, victimhood and stigmatization lie farther in its past, and shape it today.”

Prisoners of War and Local Women in Europe and the United States, 1914-1956: Consorting with the Enemy by Matthias Reiss
English | EPUB | 2022 | 314 Pages | ISBN : 3030838293 | 0.5 MB

This book brings together historians from Great Britain, the United States, Germany, France, Canada, Austria, and Latvia who have worked and published on fraternisation between Prisoners of War and local women during either the First or Second World War, providing the first comparative study of this multi-faceted phenomenon in different belligerent countries. By focusing on prisoners as wartime migrants and studying the nature and impact of their interactions with the local female population, this book expands the existing framework on prisoner of war studies. Its substantial scope and comparative approach make it an important point of reference in the growing research field of POW studies.
