Z tymi co zostali...

Książka nie jest historią Związku Harcerstwa Polskiego poza granicami Kraju ani powojenną historią harcerstwa krajowego. Ma za zadanie ukazać słabo zbadany i szerzej nieznany problem relacji tych struktur i organizacji na tle ich ówczesnych dziejów. Ponieważ jednak rozeznanie i stan badań na temat krajowego harcerstwa są już znaczące, to w pracy tej główny nurt ustaleń badawczych dąży w kierunku spraw związanych z ZHPpgK. Przyjęta w ten sposób perspektywa i założenia powodują, że prezentowane tu ustalenia tworzą wybrany obraz dziejów tej organizacji i są zaledwie elementem większej całości.

Violence analyzes both the violence exerted on the societies of Central and Eastern Europe during the twentieth century by belligerent powers and authoritarian and/or totalitarian regimes and armed conflicts between ethnic, social and national groups, as well as the interaction between these two phenomena. Throughout the twentieth century, Central and Eastern Europe was hit particularly hard by war, violence and repression, with armed conflicts in the Balkans at the start and end of the period and two world wars in between. In the shadow of these full-scale wars, ethnic, social and national conflicts were intensified, found new forms and were violently played out. The interwar period witness...

Stalin and Europe

Stalin and Europe

The Soviet Union was the largest state in the twentieth-century world, but its repressive power and terrible ambition were most clearly on display in Europe. Under the leadership of Joseph Stalin, the Soviet Union transformed itself and then all of the European countries with which it came into contact. This volume considers each aspect of the encounter of Stalin with Europe: the attempt to create a kind of European state by accelerating the European model of industrial development in the USSR; mass murder in anticipation of a war against European powers; the actual contact with Europe's greatest power, Nazi Germany, first as ally and then as enemy; four years of war fought chiefly on Soviet territory and bringing untold millions of deaths, including much of the Holocaust; and finally the reestablishment of the Soviet system, not just in prewar territory of the USSR, but in Western Ukraine, Western Belarus, the Baltic States, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, and East Germany.

Re-examines the events in Jedwabne in 1941, exposing many methodological and factual weaknesses in the account by Jan Tomasz Gross in his book "Neighbors" (2000). Dismisses Gross's account of the massacre of Jews on 10 July 1941 as based on insufficient and unreliable sources, and lacking broader perspective, and presents a different account. Argues that, before the war, Jewish-Polish relations in Jedwabne were not hostile. The Soviet occupation and the collaboration of some Jews with the Soviets damaged these relations. Contends that the number of Jews killed on 10 July 1941 was 300-500, and not 1,600, as Gross stated. Many Jews fled and some were hidden by Poles. The action in Jedwabne was...

Najkrwawszy konflikt w historii i jego długi cień. Czy sprawiedliwość po wojnie w ogóle jest możliwa? Zgładzeni w obozach śmierci, zagłodzeni w gettach, zabici podczas czystek etnicznych, rozstrzelani w publicznych i potajemnych egzekucjach, spaleni żywcem we własnych domach, piwnicach i stodołach, spopieleni podczas bombardowań... Katalog zbrodni drugiej wojny światowej zdaje się nie mieć końca. Ile jest ofiar? Nawet nie umiemy tego policzyć! Dziesiątki milionów... Większość spośród nich to cywile. Ci, którzy przeżyli, wychodzą z konfliktu nie z bliznami, ale z otwartymi ranami, Zanim się zagoją, potrzebna jest sprawiedliwość, albo choć odwet i zemsta. Bo be...

Collective Identities and Post-War Violence in Europe, 1944–48

This book analyses the process of ‘reshaping’ liberated societies in post-1945 Europe. Post-war societies tried to solve three main questions immediately after the dark times of occupation: Who could be considered a patriot and a valuable member of the respective national community? How could relations between men and women be (re-)established? How could the respective society strengthen national cohesion? Violence in rather different forms appeared to be a powerful tool for such a complex reshaping of societies. The chapters are based on present primary research about specific cases and consider the different political, mental, and cultural developments in various nation-states between 1944 and 1948. Examples from Italy, France, Norway, Denmark, Greece, Ukraine, Lithuania, Belarus, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary demonstrate a new comparative and fascinating picture of post-war Europe. This perspective overcomes the notorious East-West dividing line, without covering the manifold differences between individual European countries.
