This edited volume serves as a sequel to and a significant expansion of The Long Aftermath: Cultural Legacies of Europe at War, 1936 – 2016 (2016). It specifically delves into the six major European countries and states that maintained official neutrality throughout World War II: Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the Vatican. By adopting a transnational, comparative, and interdisciplinary approach, the book addresses intricate and multifaceted inquiries related to collective remembrance, national policies, politics, and intellectual and cultural responses to neutrality during and after the conflict. The contributions in this volume come from a diverse array of scholars from various disciplines, including history, literature, film, media, and cultural studies. Their thought-provoking chapters challenge prevailing notions about neutrality in the post-war European and global context, thereby contributing to a gap in existing scholarship.
Common themes woven throughout the volume include the interconnected and evolving relationship between neutrality and moral responsibility during and after World War II, the significance of memory politics and popular culture in shaping collective memories, and the profound impact of the Holocaust on reshaping traditional perspectives on neutrality since the 1990s. This volume will appeal to undergraduates, postgraduates, scholars engaged in the field of memory studies, as well as non-specialist readers with an interest in understanding the complexities of neutrality in historical and contemporary contexts.
