The essay presents the first results of an ongoing research about judicial and extrajudicialpunitive strategies on women who had been on the side of or close to the fascistRepubblica Sociale Italiana (Rsi) and the Nazi occupiers. The research is based on thedossiers of the trials for collaboration celebrated in post-war Italy.First the paper explores the varied profiles of women on trials, and it highlights theircomplexity. It therefore deconstructs the popular stereotypes of both the collaborator (theyoung and attractive mistress of Nazis and Fascists, who seduces and then betrays men),and the chaste auxiliaries, serving the Nation without losing the distinctive character offemininity. Secondly, the paper examines how lawyers, magistrates and judges shapedwomen's representations, which influenced the narrative on «female collaborationism»in the following decades. Finally, the author considers the role played by the trials againstwomen collaborators in the transition from wartime to peacetime, and in re-defining agendered national identity.
