Women and Nonviolent Resistance to Nazism in WWII: Media, Sabotage, Smuggling and Hiding

Abstract

<p>This article aims to add to the small body of literature on non-violent resistance to Nazism and help reverse historiographic gender imbalance by highlighting the contribution of women active in the resistance to Nazism. It focuses on the use of underground media, the smuggling and hiding of people and sabotage. It considers whether sabotage can be construed as non-violent in some contexts and concludes by evaluating the contribution of women's non-violent resistance to Nazism.</p>
