Description

Considers the representation of Jews and the Holocaust in postcommunist Poland from the year when the public debate about the Jedwabne massacre of 10 July 1941 culminated in the publication of the report of the Institute of National Memory until 2011. This debate was the most profound and the longest on any historical issue in Poland since the political transformation of 1989. Some individuals involved in memory work claim that the country is a unique state in Europe with regard to the 'recovery' and commemoration of the Jewish past.
