Descriptionof Aux ordres de Vichy

Admittedly, given the anti-Semitic, xenophobic and racist Vichy government, the French police's scope for action was limited. Nevertheless, how could thousands of police officers arrest so many defenceless people and escort them to the deportation trains without ever resisting the orders? Raphaël Delpard's investigation goes beyond a simple indictment. It shows how, in a society unsettled by the arrival of communism, seditious movements exploited the poisoned atmosphere to impose the inhuman regime under Pétain and Laval. Little-known sources, revelations (notably about a heinous atrocity committed by René Bousquet against a thousand Jewish children), a thorough investigation of all facets of this drama: this work is essential for understanding what divided France was like during the Second World War and for forming an opinion. Documents, investigations and witness statements for a remarkable work of remembrance.
