This chapter looks at the responses of the population towards both Vichy and the German occupier. It focuses on the period up to the end of 1942 but not beyond. This is because once the organized Resistance became a more important presence in 1943, people found themselves reacting not simply to the Germans and to Vichy but also to the Resistance.
Keywords: Vichy regime, German occupation, opposition, Resistance
