The panel discussion focused on the new ground forged by the authors’ recent studies of the Second World War, including key arguments relating to dissent, national identity, and public responses to state measures. Professor Goldman discussed her award-winning book Fortress Dark and Stern: The Soviet Home Front during World War II; Dr Michelle Moffat her newly published study Scottish Society in the Second World War: Tradition, Tension, Transformation; and Professor Wanhalla her upcoming publication Te Hau Kainga: The Māori Home Front.
