| Abstract: | Britain and France understood and remembered the two world wars in very different ways, they extracted divergent policy lessons from each conflict and they developed contrasting patterns of remembrance. How France and Britain came to terms with the two world wars helps explain some of their contrasting attitudes to the second half of the twentieth century. |
