Title: Bringing the Dark Past to Light: The Reception of the Holocaust in Postcommunist Europe
Description: "This volume of original essays explores the memory of the Holocaust and the Jewish past in postcommunist Eastern Europe. Devoting space to every postcommunist country, the essays in Bringing the Dark Past to Light explore how the memory of the "dark pasts" of Eastern European nations is being recollected and reworked. In addition, it examines how this memory shapes the collective identities and the social identity of ethnic and national minorities. As the essays make clear, memory of the Holocaust has practical implications regarding the current development of national cultures and international relations." -- Publisher's description.
