This book analyses the process of 'reshaping' liberated societies in post-1945 Europe. Post-war societies tried to solve three main questions immediately after the dark times of occupation: Who could be considered a patriot and a valuable member of the respective national community? How could relations between men and women be (re-)established? How could the respective society strengthen national cohesion? Violence in rather different forms appeared to be a powerful tool for such a complex reshaping of societies. The chapters are based on present primary research about specific cases and consider the different political, mental, and cultural developments in various nation-states between 1944 and 1948. Examples from Italy, France, Norway, Denmark, Greece, Ukraine, Lithuania, Belarus, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary demonstrate a new comparative and fascinating picture of post-war Europe. This perspective overcomes the notorious East-West dividing line, without covering the manifold differences between individual European countries. Ota Konrád is Associate Professor of Modern History at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. He has worked on topics dealing with the history of East-Central Europe in the twentieth century. Recently, he co-edited In the Shadow of the Great War: Physical Violence in East-Central Europe, 1917-1923 (2021). Boris Barth is Professor of Modern and Contemporary History at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. His publications include Europa nach dem Großen Krieg. Die Krise der Demokratie in der Zwischenkriegszeit 1918-1938 (2016) and Civilizing Missions in the Twentieth Century (edited with Rolf Hobson, 2020). Jaromír Mrňka is Researcher at the Institute for the Study of Totalitarian Regimes, and Junior Research Fellow at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. He has studied the social mechanisms of denunciation, collective violence, and conflict-related acts of sexual violence in the Czech Lands during the Second World War and its aftermath.

Les relations économiques et financières franco-allemandes ont leur spécificité qui en fait un champ d’étude à la fois varié et susceptible de maints prolongements. Cet ouvrage rassemble seize communications, également réparties entre les deux pays, dont plusieurs issues de recherches menées à partir de sources inédites. Toutes ont été présentées et discutées lors d’un colloque qui formait lui-même l’aboutissement de trois années durant lesquelles s’est réuni, au rythme de quatre à cinq séances par an, un atelier placé sous le double parrainage du Comité pour l’histoire économique et financière de la France et de l’Institut historique allemand de Paris. Les sujets abordés sont variés : études sectorielles ; monographies d’entreprises ; place des politiques publiques ; importance de certains espaces de confrontation et de coopération, proches ou lointains ; rôle de la construction européenne... Leur mise en perspective devrait apporter des éléments de réponse et fournir des pistes de réflexion à propos de problèmes qui, loin d’être inédits et particuliers à la période présente, forment autant de permanences dans les relations franco-allemandes, quelle que soit l’époque considérée : déséquilibres structurels, poids des facteurs politiques, multiples ambivalences des regards croisés où s’articulent fascination et répulsion, admiration et rejet, modèle et contre-modèle.
