Description
Addresses the deterioration of relations in Subcarpathian Rus' between Jews and Carpatho-Ruthenians in the interwar period and during the Holocaust. It presents an analysis of archival material and survivors' accounts in order to understand why and how Carpatho-Ruthenians assumed the role of indifferent bystanders as their Jewish neighbours fell victim to discrimination, persecution and genocide between 1938 and 1944
