  The Allied Occupation of Germany Revisited

  New Research on the Western Zones of Occupation, 1945-1949

  The Allied occupation of Western Germany after the Second World War has long constituted a classic component in academic histories of post-war Germany. After having been the subject of sustained scholarly attention in the 1970s and 1980s, the subject has subsequently faced a decline in academic interest. This two-day conference is intended to showcase new research and provide a forum for the presentation of innovative approaches to the history of the three western zones of occupation. It also aims to stimulate dialogue between historians of the different zones of occupation and so bring together hitherto almost entirely segregated historiographies. We are inviting papers from both emerging scholars and established specialists.

  1940-1950: war, occupation and social changes

  New perspectives in the 1940s

  L'année 1945 est souvent perçue comme une césure profonde. Or, cette vision occulte les continuités, les traumatismes et les règlements de compte de l’après-guerre qui ne peuvent se comprendre que lorsqu’on appréhende la décennie comme un ensemble. Cette approche sera au centre du colloque international organisé par l'université du Luxembourg, les 23 et 24 octobre 2015. Ce colloque a pour objectif d'éclairer les mutations profondes (politiques, idéologiques, culturelles, économiques) que connurent la société luxembourgeoise et les autres sociétés européennes, entre le déclenchement de la seconde guerre mondiale et le début de la Guerre froide.
