The file contains the personal efforts of Alfred Wiener and Johan Wolfgang Brügel into researching the resistance of the German churches against Nationalsocialist rule from 1933-1945 and the coverage within the British media. It contains press coverage in England, as well as personal correspondence with other researchers and intellectuals who were also interested in the resistance of the churches towards the Nationalsocialist regime. The file discusses these aspects in detail, including instances, examples and limits of resistance, but also the extent of collaboration between the religious establishment and the Nazi regime.
