Unarmed Against Hitler: Civilian Resistance in Europe, 1939-1943

What did the peoples and governments of occupied Europe do–or not do–to impede Nazi administrators and armies, to facilitate an Allied victory, and to resist the Holocaust? These are some of the questions raised and examined in detail in Semelin’s fascinating account. Essential concepts such as “resistance” or “non-cooperation” and “legitimacy” are explored as to their implications for what happened and what the meaning may be for future proponents of non-violence in the face of aggression.
