  • Crimes Committed by U.S. Soldiers in Europe
    Journal of Interdisciplinary History, XLVII:1 (Summer, 2016), 53–84. Thomas J. Kehoe and E. James Kehoe Crimes Committed by U.S. Soldiers in Europe, 1945–1946 American soldiers engaged in all manner of criminal activity as they made their way across Europe after World War II. But in comparison with the well-established criminality accom- panying the Soviet occupation in the East, the rate of violent and nonviolent American criminality, and its impact on occupied and liberated European societies, has been difficult to determine because of the lack of adequate statistics. At the time, civilians in France, Italy, the Benelux countries, and especially Germany made frequent reference to such American criminal activity as looting, petty thievery, drunkenness, rape, and murder. U.S. military reports confirm American soldiers’ predilection for theft and black-market racketeering, often couched in the euphemisms “fraternization” and “harassment”; some of them even suggest more violent incli- nations. These depictions, however, had little effect on the early his- toriography of American soldiers in Europe. The first historical narratives were shaped mainly by the accounts of witnesses and vic- tims, along with a few crime statistics. Scholars writing between the 1940s and 1960s acknowledged the looting and drunkenness but downplayed the violence, preferring to portray American soldiers as liberators and valiant conquerors of Nazism, war weary and prone to excessive drinking but not rapists and murders.1 Thomas J.

  • Betwee N Trauma and Resilience a Transnational Reading of Women’S Life Writing About Wartime Rape in Germany and Bosnia and Herzegovina
    p Betwee n Trauma and Resilience A Transnational Reading of Women’s Life Writing about Wartime Rape in Germany and Bosnia and Herzegovina Agatha Schwartz and Tatjana Takševa ABSTRACT This article discusses the personal narratives (both published and personal interviews collected for the purpose of this study) of female survivors of wartime rape in post– World War II Germany and postconfl ict Bosnia and Herzegovina. The authors exam- ine how the women succeed in fi nding their words both for and beyond the rupture caused by the rapes through examples of life writing that challenge the dominant mas- culinist historical narrative of war created for ideological reasons and for the benefi t of the nation-state. Using theories of trauma and insights by feminist scholars and historians, the authors argue that a transnational reading of survivors’ accounts from these very diff erent geopolitical and historical contexts not only shows multiple points of mutual infl uence, but also how these narratives can make a signifi cant contribution, both locally and globally, when it comes to revisiting how wartime rape is memorial- ized, and how lessons learned from the two contexts can be relevant and applicable in other situations of armed confl ict as well. KEYWORDS: agency, memory, narratives of women survivors, trauma, wartime rape p In this article, through the narratives of women survivors we explore the eff ects and transgenerational consequences of rape during two twentieth-century episodes of armed confl ict: the end of World War II in Germany and the war in Bosnia and Herze- govina (former Yugoslavia), 1992–1995.

University of Cape Town ABSTRACT The study explored the experiences of expatriate mothers’ pregnancy, childbirth and motherhood in a host city. This included identifying how expatriate mothers access public healthcare, and adapt to motherhood in a host country in a subsequent pregnancy. These expatriate mothers had previously experienced childbirth in their country of origin. A descriptive qualitative approach was utilised as it describes individuals’ lived experiences. Purposive sampling was chosen and I had an in-depth conversation with nine expatriate mothers. Thematic analysis was used to identify themes and sub-themes. Findings: The participants established that antenatal care was easily accessible. Mothers were confronted with a lack of respectful care in labour wards. They also had personal challenges. This all led to the development of the four themes.
