"Collaboration is one of the most notorious, controversial and dramatic topics of the 20th century, yet paradoxically one of the most neglected. Peter Davies' unique account of collaboration during World War Two explains that the war crimes trials of Barbie and Papon and the recent Balkans conflict show that collaboration remains as relevant now as it was immediately after the liberation of Europe." "Dangerous Liaisons looks beyond Hitler's role in collaboration and examines the reasons why treacherous relationships were developed from the perspective of Berlin's 'puppet states', such as France, Norway, and a host of countries in Central and Eastern Europe. The full spectrum of political, social, economic and 'horizontal' collaboration is explored in detail."--BOOK JACKET.
