First Year Seminar: Resistance and Collaboration in Nazi-Occupied Europe

Nazi Germany occupied much of Europe between 1938 and 1945. In this seminar we will explore the varied responses to an always brutal and evolving occupation. What constituted resistance or collaboration under Nazi rule, and what forms did it take in different national contexts? We will focus on the motivations of individuals who resisted or collaborated, as well as on the ways in which social, cultural, religious, and ideological identities informed individual choices.
