Zusammenfassung: | Some 60 million people died during the Second World War; millions more were displaced in Europe, Africa, and Asia. The war resulted in the creation of new states, the acceleration of imperial decline, and a shift in the distribution of global power. Despite its unprecedented impact, a comprehensive account of the complex international experiences of this war remains elusive. The Peoples' War? offers fresh approaches to the challenge of writing a new history of the Second World War. Exploring aspects of the war that have been marginalized in military and political studies, the volume foregrounds less familiar narratives, subjects, and places. Chapters recover the wartime experiences of individuals - including women, children, members of minority ethnic groups, and colonial subjects - whose stories do not fit easily into conventional national war narratives. The contributors show how terms used to delineate the conflict such as home front and battle front, occupier and occupied, captor and prisoner, and friend and foe became increasingly blurred as the war wore on. Above all, the volume encourages reflection on whether this conflict really was a "Peoples' War."Challenging the homogenizing narratives of the war as a nationally unifying experience, The Peoples' War? seeks to enrich our understanding of the Second World War as a global event |

spelling | The peoples' war? the Second World War in sociopolitical perspective Alexander Wilson, Richard Hammond, Jonathan Fennell Montreal McGill-Queen's University Press [2022] vii, 400 Seiten Illustrationen, Diagramme txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier Some 60 million people died during the Second World War; millions more were displaced in Europe, Africa, and Asia. The war resulted in the creation of new states, the acceleration of imperial decline, and a shift in the distribution of global power. Despite its unprecedented impact, a comprehensive account of the complex international experiences of this war remains elusive. The Peoples' War? offers fresh approaches to the challenge of writing a new history of the Second World War. Exploring aspects of the war that have been marginalized in military and political studies, the volume foregrounds less familiar narratives, subjects, and places. Chapters recover the wartime experiences of individuals - including women, children, members of minority ethnic groups, and colonial subjects - whose stories do not fit easily into conventional national war narratives. The contributors show how terms used to delineate the conflict such as home front and battle front, occupier and occupied, captor and prisoner, and friend and foe became increasingly blurred as the war wore on. Above all, the volume encourages reflection on whether this conflict really was a "Peoples' War."Challenging the homogenizing narratives of the war as a nationally unifying experience, The Peoples' War? seeks to enrich our understanding of the Second World War as a global event Sozialgeschichte gnd rswk-swf Zweiter Weltkrieg (DE-588)4079167-1 gnd rswk-swf c 1939 to c 1945 (including WW2) ca. 1938 bis ca. 1946 (Zeitraum des Zweiten Weltkriegs) HISTORY / Essays HISTORY / Military / World War II Second World War Social & cultural history Sozial- und Kulturgeschichte Zweiter Weltkrieg (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Zweiter Weltkrieg (DE-588)4079167-1 s Sozialgeschichte z DE-604 Wilson, Alexander (DE-588)1054748624 edt Hammond, Richard 1985- (DE-588)1214309259 edt Fennell, Jonathan 1979- (DE-588)1012091171 edt Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, PDF 978-0-2280-1589-5 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, EPUB 978-0-2280-1590-1 http://www.dietmardreier.de/annot/426F6F6B446174617C7C393738303232383031343731337C7C434F50.jpg?sq=4 Verlag Cover Digitalisierung UB Augsburg - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=033997575&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis Digitalisierung UB Augsburg - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=033997575&sequence=000003&line_number=0002&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Klappentext |
