This is a 4 page paper discussing the non-violent opposition to the Ruhrkampf occupation. The occupation of the Ruhr, one of Germany’s chief industrial centers, from 1923 to 1925 is one of the significant examples of non-violent opposition (called the Ruhrkampf) to occupation in post World War I Europe. The Versailles Treaty after World War I required that Germany pay reparations to the allies who were victorious in the war. Due to disastrous economic conditions after the war however, Germany was unable to make any payments and therefore defaulted. As a response to the default in payments, French and Belgian troops occupied the Ruhr region in Germany near the French and Belgium borders. Unable to militarily respond to the occupation, the German government instead called for non-cooperation and resistance to the occupation which lead to a further economic decline in the region. The resistance was also met violently by the French whose actions in the region were unpopular internationally and within France as well. The resistance to the forces led eventually to a new reparation agreement and the withdrawal of occupying forces.
