This international workshop aims at exploring thevarious modalities of non-voluntary cohabitation implied by the Allied militaryoccupation in defeated Germany after 1945. In everyday life military occupationcovered a wide range of interactions from protection to violence between mostlymale occupiers, considered the winners, andholders of many privileges, against theoccupied of both sexes, defeated and in a situation of legal, economic, as wellas moral inferiority. The relationshipsbetween occupiers and the occupied ranged from enmity to intimacy and affectedgender roles in several ways. Gender relationships were thus at the very heartof ongoing explicit and implicit renegotiation of these power struggles.Venue: Freiburg Institute for Advanced Studies (FRIAS) I Albertstr. 19 I 79104 Freiburg i.
