In this monumental new account of the Vichy years, Julian Jackson examines French experiences of Occupation during the 'Black Years' of 1940-4. Pulling together previously separate 'histories' of occupation, resistance, and collaboration he presents a definitive history of the period. This isa more complex history than the traditional dichotomy between 'collaboration' and 'resistance', one in which the ideological frontiers between Vichy and the Resistance were often blurred. This study ranges from the politics of Marshal Petain's regime to the experiences of the ordinary Frenchpeople, from surrender in 1940 to the purges of liberation. The author restores the organized Resistance to a more central role than has been customary in recent years and presents a new social history of the resistance which takes in the roles of foreigners, women, Jews, and peasants. He uncoversthe long term roots of the Vichy regime in political and social conflict and cultural crisis stretching back to the Great War and concludes by tracing the lasting legacy and memory of Occupation since 1945.… (más)
A superbly written account of France during WWII, especially Vichy. Since reading A Woman of No Importance, I discovered that my studies of and U.S. textbooks about Vichy, France, are quite distorted. After reading this I can categorically say that Vichy, France, was by no means a "free zone", and in fact, perhaps more dangerous than Paris. Well worth the 608 pages ( )
This book is a magnificent study of the grimmest period in France's history. Yet as Julian Jackson demonstrates, the origins of France's "dark years" lay not with Germany's defeat of France in 1940, but with the divisive and polarizing politics of the 1930s, during which many of the trends that played out during the Vichy years were established. Many conservative politicians saw France's humiliation as a product of social and political trends fostered by the Third Republic. Under Marshal Petain the Vichy regime sought to forge a stronger nation, only to be frustrated by the demands of the German war economy and the threat to French sovereignty it posed. The Resistance would eventually serve as a more enduring ideal for France, yet Jackson shows just how complicated its legacy became, with Charles de Gaulle seeking to assert a degree of control so as to cement his own claims to post-Liberation rule. Jackson draws upon decades of memoirs and historical research to recount this, providing what is likely to be the best English-language account of France's years of division, occupation, and humiliation for decades to come.

INTRODUCTION
En janvier 1945, Charles Maurras, qui avait passé sa vie à polémiquer contre la République, était reconnu coupable de collaboration avec l’Allemagne. « C’est la revanche de Dreyfus ! » observa-t-il à l’énoncé du verdict. Maurras avait la mémoire notoirement longue, mais il y eut certainement des échos de l’affaire Dreyfus sous l’Occupation. [...]
