She discusses the factors that provoked the war and how they affected Spanish women - both the "visible" women who during the turbulent 1920s and 1930s tried to become part of mainstream politics and the "invisible" women who came to the fore during the revolutionary years of the Second Spanish Republic from 1931 to 1936 and became activists in the protest against the military insurrection of 1936.

This book investigates cinematic representations of the murder of European Jews and civilian opposition to Nazi occupation from the war up until the twenty-first century. The study exposes a chronology of the conflict’s memorialization whose geo-political alignments are demarcated by vectors of time and space—or ‘chronotopes’, using Mikhail Bakhtin’s term. Camino shows such chronotopes to be first defined by the main allies; the USA, USSR and UK; and then subsequently expanding from the geographical and political centres of the occupation; France, the USSR and Poland. Films from Western and Eastern Europe and the USA are treated as primary and secondary sources of the conflict. These sources contribute to a sentient or emotional history that privileges affect and construct what Michel Foucault labels biopolitics. These cinematic narratives, which are often based on memoirs of resistance fighters like Joseph Kessel or Holocaust survivors such as Primo Levi and Wanda Jakubowska, evoke the past in what Marianne Hirsch has described as ‘post-memory’.

This book investigates the importance of gender and resistance to silences and denials concerning human rights abuses and historical injustices in narratives on transnational memories of three violent conflicts in Indonesia. Transnational memories of violent conflicts travel abroad with politicians, postcolonial migrants and refugees. Starting with the Japanese occupation of Indonesia (1942–1945), the war of independence (1945–1949) and the genocide of 1965, the volume analyses narratives in Dutch and Indonesian novels in relation to social and political narratives (1942–2015). By focusing on gender and resistance from both Indonesian and Dutch, transnational and global perspectives, the author provides new perspectives on memories of the conflicts that are relevant to research on transitional justice and memory politics.

Memories of Kreisau and the German Resistance is the personal account of Freya von Moltke, a member of the Kreisau Circle, a German resistance group that participated in the attempt to assassinate Hitler on July 20, 1944. Freya?s husband, Helmuth von Moltke, was a cofounder of the circle and was executed after the failed assassination attempt. ø Freya recounts both personal details and sweeping historical events. She describes the resistance work carried out during the meetings of the circle as well as the last days of Kreisau, after many of the members of the resistance were executed for their roles in the failed assassination attempt. When the war ended in 1945, Freya was evacuated from Kreisau, and the von Moltke estate was given to Poland.

“This wonderful monograph treats a subject that resonates with anyone who studies the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and particularly Palestinian nationalism: that how Palestinian history is remembered and constructed is as meaningful to our understanding of the current struggle as arriving as some sort of ‘complete empirical understanding’ of its history. Swedenburg . . . studies how a major anti-colonial insurrection, the 1936–38 strike and revolt in Palestine [against the British], is remembered in Palestinian nationalist historiography, western and Israeli ‘official’ historical discourse, and Palestinian popular memory. Using primarily oral history interviews, supplemented by archival material and national monuments, he presents multiple, complex, contradictory, and alternative interpretations of historical events. . . . The book is thematically divided into explorations of Palestinian nationalist symbols, stereotypes, and myths; Israeli national monuments that simultaneously act as historical ‘injunctions against forgetting’ Jewish history and efforts to ‘marginalize, vilify, and obliterate’ the Arab history of Palestine; Palestine subaltern memories as resistance to official narratives, including unpopular and controversial recollections of collaboration and assassination; and finally, how the recodification and revival of memories of the revolt informed the Palestinian intifada that erupted in 1987.” —MESA Bulletin

"Something You Never Forget? Memories of resistance and liberation in the Dutch villages of Abcoude and Baambrugge near Amsterdam" provides stories of personal experiences of citizens during WWII based on interviews and adaptations of reports and speeches. Some interviewees told about the way they survived daily life, and others risked their lives in a true display of courage for freedom. This English translation of the 1995 commemorative publication of "Dat vergeet je nooit meer..." has been revised by the Dutch author Else Flim in 2021 and includes explanations of German terms and special Dutch circumstances. The author wrote stories in the first person singular about the life of several ordinary citizens of the villages of Abcoude and Baambrugge during World War II while their country was occupied by the Germans. This book covers a range of topics: the rationing of food, the creation of the resistance groups, a weapons depot on a farm, the dangerous work of the female couriers distributing their secret messages by bike, the hiding of Jews and young men called to serve in forced labor, the forced departure of the Jewish families during the Holocaust who lived in the heart of Abcoude, the reception of the evacuees from the front lines, the hiding of the mayor, the consequences of this action for the civil servants staying behind, the flooding strategy of the Germans which flooded large parts of land, the hunger trips of people from Amsterdam and surrounding areas to the villages, the bomb that fell in the center of Abcoude in October 1944, the food shortage and the efforts of the Economic Commission, the emergency hospital in the rectory in Baambrugge, the distribution service, the raid where the men were taken from the marketplace, the dangerous assignment of the resistance and the death of a member of the resistance group, the fifth of May when he was buried, liberation day that brought liberation, but also uncertainty, because of the capture of the Mayor who returned from hiding and the military commander. And finally, May 7, the entry of the British and Scottish Canadian troops.
