After the Holocaust
Polish-Jewish conflict in the wake of World War II
by Marek Chodakiewicz
- 1 Want to read
"After the Holocaust explores the multifaceted sources of conflict between the Jewish minority and Christian Polish majority immediately following the retreat of the Nazis from Poland and during the first three years of Soviet occupation (1944-1947). It argues that this conflict was not a continuation of the Holocaust, but rather a distinct phenomenon that developed within the context of the Soviet takeover and postwar retribution and counter-retribution and was exacerbated by the break-down of law and order and an insurgent Polish resistance to communism." "This book presents the case that Polish anti-communism, and not anti-Semitism, led to a tragic climate of distrust, one that ensured that the killings would continue after the Holocaust."--Jacket.
