In the years following 1945, Europe faced diverse challenges connected by the overriding question of how the reconstruction of the continent should proceed. For the Central Powers, the implementation lay in the hands of the Allied occupying forces who organised the process of denazification and the establishment of a new economic order. In countries without military occupation, there was a deep gap between the new governmental forces and the former collaborators. In both cases, social movements which were formed by anti-fascists on the left of the political spectrum assumed the task of social reorganisation. The chapters in this book explore the discourses about economic systems and their elites which moved to the fore across a range of European countries, uncovering who was involved, what resistance these social movements faced and how these ultimately failed in the West to bring about change, while in Eastern Europe Stalinism forcibly imposed change. . 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in the History of Social Movements,$x2634-6559 606 $aEurope?History?1492- 606 $aLabor?History 606 $aSocial history 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aHistory of Modern Europe$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717080 606 $aLabor History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/725000 606 $aSocial History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/724000 606 $aEconomic History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W41000 606 $aPolitical History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911080 615 0$aEurope?History?1492-. 615 0$aLabor?History. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 14$aHistory of Modern Europe. 615 24$aLabor History. 615 24$aSocial History. 615 24$aEconomic History. 615 24$aPolitical History. 676 $a940.903 702 $aBerger$b Stefan$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBoldorf$b Marcel$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299796803321 996 $aSocial Movements and the Change of Economic Elites in Europe after 1945$92496478 997 $aUNINA
