In France the sixtieth anniversary of the end of the WW II has produced a number of publications, some of which are not always new but frequently associated with the fortieth and fiftieth anniversaries. Their authors focused on European and world issues, with a conspicuous departure from exclusively French topics in favour of European themes, often involving the application of the comparative method and the introduction of an interdisciplinary approach. Publications of photographic material are particularly noteworthy. Works devoid of an anniversary character also strongly accentuate the events of 1945 despite the fact that they frequently relate to the postwar period. Despite the fact that numerous phenomena were enrooted in the war years, 1945 is regarded as already a fragment of later developments. One of the features distinguishing the most recent French publications is research into memories of the war, including national memory, together with an attempt at depicting the impact exerted by the whole war period upon French society, including all the complicated determinants linked with collaboration and the Resistance. The discussed studies reveal greatly scattered research trends and workshop methods, although the 'Annales' school, already in a reformed version, continues to occupy an important rank and to inspire further investigations.
