The various ways in which the Dresden bombings have been remembered and commemorated has contributed a great deal towards this city’s enduring legacy. This thesis examines the wartime bombings of Dresden to investigate how the memory, commemoration and narrative of the Dresden raids have been shaped and framed in public and academic discourses since 1945. To do so, this study focuses on the city of Dresden during the phase of Allied occupation, the period of East Germany and briefly beyond reunification to demonstrate the ongoing and changing discursive legacy of this controversial event. -

Material Cultures of Childhood in Second World War Britain
Material Cultures of Childhood in Second World War Britain How do children cope when their world is transformed by war? This book draws on memory narratives to construct an historical anthropology of childhood in Second World Britain, focusing on objects and spaces such as gas masks, air raid shelters and bombed-out buildings. In their struggles to cope with the fears and upheavals of wartime, with families divided and familiar landscapes lost or transformed, children reimagined and reshaped these material traces of conflict into toys, treasures and playgrounds. This study of the material worlds of wartime childhood offers a unique viewpoint into an extraordinary period in history with powerful resonances across global conflicts into the present day. Gabriel Moshenska is Associate Professor in Public Archaeology at University College London, UK. Material Culture and Modern Conflict Series editors: Nicholas J. Saunders, University of Bristol, Paul Cornish, Imperial War Museum, London Modern warfare is a unique cultural phenomenon. While many conflicts in history have produced dramatic shifts in human behaviour, the industrialized nature of modern war possesses a material and psychological intensity that embodies the extremes of our behaviours, from the total economic mobiliza- tion of a nation state to the unbearable pain of individual loss. Fundamen- tally, war is the transformation of matter through the agency of destruction, and the character of modern technological warfare is such that it simulta- neously creates and destroys more than any previous kind of conflict. The material culture of modern wars can be small (a bullet, machine-gun or gas mask), intermediate (a tank, aeroplane, or war memorial), and large (a battleship, a museum, or an entire contested landscape). -

Japan, 1944-47 Keywords: Migration; War; Demographic Change
The Geography of Wartime Demographic Change: Japan, 1944-47 Keywords: Migration; war; demographic change; Japan; census; World War II Abstract This study examines the geography of demographic change in Japan at the end of World War II (1944-47) in relation to its preceding population growth trajectory. The trajectory is estimated using Japanese Census data at the prefecture level between 1920 and 1940, and subsequent annual population counts for 1944, 1945, 1946, and 1947 are compared to this trajectory to characterize and understand the impact of the War. The findings illustrate and highlight the highly unusual geographic and temporal patterns of population change at the close of the War. Key findings include a systematic characterization of prefectures according to their experience over the four years in four groups, the two largest cities, other urban prefectures, a ring of rural prefectures surrounding these urban prefectures, and peripheral rural prefectures. Similarly, each of the four years is characterized based on the unique pattern of population change specific to that year. In keeping with broad pre-War patterns, 1944 reveals a slight loss of population in rural areas and a slight gain in urban areas. 1945 is dominated by urban-to-rural migration as urban dwellers fled the cities to take refuge in rural areas from the Allied strategic bombing campaign. 1946 shows a partial reversal of the trend seen in 1945. The highlight of 1947 is the repatriation of large numbers of Japanese citizens from the territories lost by Japan in the aftermath of the War. Keywords: Migration; war; demographic change; Japan; census; World War II Introduction In terms of loss of life, World War II was “history’s deadliest quarrel” (Clodfelter, 2008, p.581). -
