Millionen Deutsche waren im Zweiten Weltkrieg vor den alliierten Bombern auf der Flucht aus den Städten. Pläne für die Evakuierung gab es nicht, das NS-Regime nahm die Gefährdung der Zivilbevölkerung billigend in Kauf. Als die Reichsführung im Frühjahr 1943 endlich aktiv wurde, war es zu spät: Das ganze Reichsgebiet war inzwischen Luftkriegsgebiet. Was nur als vorübergehende Notlösung geplant war, wurde für viele Evakuierte zum jahrelangen Dauerzustand: Leben in einem fremden Umfeld, in primitiven Verhältnissen, getrennt von der Familie. Eine Lösung bahnte sich erst im Jahre 1953 mit dem Erlass des Bundesevakuiertengesetzes an. In der Studie werden politische Entscheidungsprozesse und Wirkungen der Evakuierungen auf zentraler Ebene und vor Ort untersucht sowie die Erfahrungen der Betroffenen, Einheimischer wie Evakuierter, am Beispiel Bayerns aufgezeigt.

This collection of essays brings together the latest historical research on cultural production and reception during the Second World War. Its starting point is how this war was presented to, and understood by, contemporaries and how they differentiated it from earlier conflicts. Although this was particularly noticeable in the construction of ideas of inclusiveness and commonality where ‘the people’ pulled together to secure victory and a socially equitable peace, the essays also seek to explore the diversity of institutional and personal experiences. Essays look at major national institutions and industries such as the recently formed BBC, the culturally diverse and rapidly expanding commercial press, and the British film industry. The collection explores the role of the individual agent, with studies on established writers and composers, and how each related to the collective rationales of wartime.
