Seventy-five years after the Holocaust, Poland's approach to its
murdered Jewish community still remains a highly debated and often
politicized issue. This book addresses this contested topic in an
interdisciplinary way, integrating the approaches of memory
studies, social anthropology and sociology. The authors revisited
the material from the fieldwork carried out 25 years ago and
compared it with the interviews collected recently with the younger
generation of Poles. The result is a fascinating account of the
process of collective forgetting that offers not only an original
insight into Christian-Jewish relations after the Holocaust, but
also a significant contribution to the reflection on the social
mechanisms of remembrance and identity-building.
