The Strange Defeat is a testimony written in 1940 by Marc Bloch, analyzing the crisis of French society and its rapid surrender to Hitler's advance. Bloch, a committed intellectual, reflects on the responsibility of those who did not get involved in the problems of their time and demands that historians contribute to collective awareness. This book offers a unique perspective on the history of France during World War II and the German occupation.
