Publisher's Synopsis
This is the first comprehensive and comparative survey of resistance to National Socialism and Fascism in Europe. The Handbook presents the foundations, forms and conflicts of resistance, relates it to post-war developments in Europe and analyses its reception after 1945. It is structured geographically, dealing with resistance first within the Axis Powers, then in the occupied territories and finally with resistance from emigration and exile. The accounts are complemented with maps and important documents relating to the resistance movements.
