Fall out. World War II and the shaping of postwar Europe: In this book Peter Calvocoressi addresses the impact of World War II on the shaping of Europe in a series of essays. Questions asked in the book include: Was World War II a war against fascism, or a war against Germany? Did it have to be fought to a finish, with the unconditional surrender of Germany as a necessary objective, or did the defeat of Germany unnecessarily prolong the conflict and facilitate the division of Europe? Was the Cold War, and that division, an inevitable sequel? Did the war dispose of the German Question? Where stands fascism today? The book forms a valuable prelude to the history of the post-war European integration process.
