At the end of World War II, the vast majority of people in France, living in small towns or rural areas, had suffered through a series of traumas-economic depression, war and occupation, the absence of millions of POWs, deportees and forced laborers, widespread destruction. The resulting disruptions continued to reverberate in families for several years after the Liberation. In the decades following the war, France experienced radical economic and social transformations, becoming an urban, industrial, affluent nation. In less than thirty years, French ideas about gender and family life underwent dramatic changes. This book provides a broad view of changing lives and ideas about love, courtship, marriage, giving birth, parenting, childhood, and adolescence in France from the Vichy regime to the sexual revolution of 1960s. To understand how such changes influenced ideas about family life, From Vichy to the Sexual Revolution explores inexpensive guide books on marriage, childbirth and parenting, advice columns and popular magazines directed at readers from a variety of backgrounds. Sarah Fishman puts these sources into context, by exploring juvenile court family case studies. She links economic and social changes to the evolution of thinking about gender, the self, and the family, throwing new light on the emergence of a new vision of the family, one based on dynamic relationships rather than a set structure.

While most people who have waited in grocery or newsstand checkout lines today will recognize the magazines Elle and Marie-Claire, few know that two journalists, Marcelle Auclair and Marcelle Ségal, were critical to the success of these magazines when they began publication in France. True celebrities of the postwar decades, they wielded greater influence on French society than Jean-Paul Sartre, Jacques Lacans, or Michel Foucault. Through their columns and their appearances on radio and television, Auclair and Ségal became familiar figures in everyday life. Bridges to Feminism is a dual biography of these trailblazing French journalists--Marcelle Auclair of Marie-Claire and Marcelle Ségal of Elle--who helped reshape how women saw themselves in postwar France. Through their writing, they built powerful connections with readers, offering advice, empathy, and a vision of womanhood that defied convention. Their lives vividly distill the tumult of the twentieth century and its impact on women: war and peace, collaboration and resistance, race and gender, marriage and divorce, parenting and loss. Although they both followed the expected paths of marriage and motherhood, life had other plans and they were forced to reinvent themselves. By 1939, they were uprooted by the German invasion of France, and after the war, they rebuilt their lives and careers, becoming beloved voices for women across France. They used their platforms to encourage women to trust themselves, embrace their strength, and challenge traditional roles. Together, Auclair and Ségal inspired French women to imagine new possibilities for their futures and created personal, powerful bridges to feminism.

Providing an up-to-date synthesis of the history of an extraordinary nation--one that has been shrouded in myths, many of its own making--France and Its Empire Since 1870 seeks both to understand these myths and to uncover the complicated and often contradictory realities that underpin them. It situates modern French history in transnational and global contexts and also integrates the themes of imperialism and immigration into the traditional narrative.Authors Alice L. Conklin, Sarah Fishman, and Robert Zaretsky begin with the premise that while France and the U.S. are sister republics, they also exhibit profound differences that are as compelling as their apparent similarities. The authors frame the book around the contested emergence of the French Republic--a form of government that finally appears to have a permanent status in France--but whose birth pangs were much more protracted than those of the American Republic. Presenting a lively and coherent narrative of the major developments in France's tumultuous history since 1870, the authors organize the chapters around the country's many turning points and confrontations. They also offer detailed analyses of politics, society, and culture, considering the diverse viewpoints of men and women from every background including the working class and the bourgeoisie, immigrants, Catholics, Jews and Muslims, Bretons and Algerians, rebellious youth, and gays and lesbians.

A new history of modern France built around five innovative features that reviewers strongly support. The text will maintain the 'traditional' narrative that students need and integrate the themes of imperialism and immigration into the narrative, while situatiing French history in both transnational and global contexts. It will also integrate recent work in social, intellectual, and cultural history, which, as readers stressed, the three authors and their complementary strengths are ideally suited to accomplish. The book also includes ample illustrations, maps and vignettes that will make the book inviting to students and facilitate classroom discussion. There is no consensus concerning the text's chronology, owing to the fact that courses in modern French history do not have standard dates. Some courses cover 1789 to the present, others start in 1815, 1870, even 1914. The field of modern France is moving generally toward a greater emphasis on the twentieth century and on France's interaction with other parts of the globe.

The Battle for Children links two major areas of historical inquiry: crime and delinquency with war and social change. In a study based on impressive archival research, Sarah Fishman reveals the impact of the Vichy regime on one of history’s most silent groups—children—and offers enlightening new information about the Vichy administration.Fishman examines how French children experienced the events of war and the German occupation, demonstrating that economic deprivation, not family dislocation, sharply drove up juvenile crime rates. Wartime circumstances led authorities to view delinquent minors as victims, and provided the opportunity for reformers in psychiatry, social work, and law to fundamentally transform France’s punitive juvenile justice system into a profoundly therapeutic one. Vichy-era legislation thus formed the foundation of the modern juvenile justice system in France, which rarely incarcerates delinquent youth.In her examination of the critical but unexpected role the war and the authoritarian Vichy regime played in the transformation of France’s juvenile courts and institutions, Fishman has enriched our knowledge of daily life in France during World War II, refined our understanding of Vichy’s place in the historical development of France, and provided valuable insights into contemporary debates on juvenile justice.

This volume about the Vichy years and the German Occupation of 1940-1944 uses as a starting point Robert Paxton's Vichy France: Old Guard and New Order, which provided a meticulously documented portrait of a nation consumed by indecision and self-doubt. The essays by the foremost scholars in the field place the Occupation of France in the context of other episodes in French history, and in the context of other occupied countries during World War II. They consider communities of belief during the Vichy years, examine how the experience of war and occupation shaped the everyday lives of people, and look at the ongoing reconstruction of the memory of the Vichy years.This collection of essays takes up where Paxton left off and shows how the last twenty-five years of scholarship have made problematic the tidy categories used to describe behaviour during the Vichy years. The authors point to new directions in the field and address both the myth of the 'nation of forty million resisters' that Paxton demolished and the creation of a new myth -- that the French have failed or refused to confront their past.

This book aims to provide the reader with a comprehensive overview of the most recent advances in the use of technology to support the treatment of diabetes. It discusses not only the evidence supporting these technologies, but also the practicalities of their use. Few resources are available to guide the clinical provider in the choice and application of glucose sensing systems and insulin delivery devices to improve clinical outcomes. Advances in Diabetes Technology is intended to provide such a resource.While the use of these technologies is relatively common in the outpatient setting, their use in the inpatient setting is becoming increasingly common. This book is designed to help the both the inpatient and outpatient clinical provider to recognize and understand diabetes technology and the ways in which it can be used during acute and critical illness. In addition, it explores software algorithms used to develop automated treatment plans and apps used by patients independently of direct involvement by their physician. Lastly, this book discusses do-it-yourself technologies used and developed by patients outside of the traditional care setting and without the professional guidance to modify and enhance existing technologies for customized use. The use of DIY diabetes technologies is promoted on social media and has been adopted by many younger patients. Familiarity with this emerging brand of diabetes technology is needed to ensure clinicians understand their patients and their management of diabetes.
