Historian Naimark offers perspective on proposed memorial to expelled Germans

News Type

Date
Paragraphs
In a Jan. 21 article published in the German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, SIIS senior fellow and historian Norman M. Naimark offered his perspective on the emotions and issues raised by a foundation that seeks to create a research center and museum in Berlin dedicated to studying forced population transfers in 20th-century Europe. Such forced transfers included the expulsion of 15 million ethnic Germans from Eastern Europe. Sentiment against a memorial to German victims is particularly high in Poland and the Czech Republic, where, Naimark noted, the treatment of Germans at the fall of the Third Reich showed all the signs of being an ethnic cleansing that was in part a reaction to Nazi atrocities. Naimark, the Robert and Florence McDonnel Professor of Eastern European Studies, suggested that the expulsion of the Germans deserves further study, and that more public discussion is needed before deciding whether to build the center and museum.

The Draft EU Constitution: A Step Forward or More of the Same?

Last year the Convention on the Future of Europe proposed a draft EU constitution. The draft was to be approved at an Inter-Governmental Conference last December, but approval was postponed due to disagreements on voting rules in the Council of Ministers. This seminar evaluates the draft constitution. On February 25 Prime Minister Jean-Luc Dehaene, Vice-President of the Convention, will give a lecture about the prospects for its adoption. A separate announcement for that lecture will follow.

Exile and Identity: Polish Women in the Soviet Union during World War II

Paragraphs

Using firsthand personal accounts and focusing on the experiences of women, Katherine R. Jolluck relates and examines the experiences of thousands of civilians deported to the USSR following the Soviet annexation of eastern Poland in 1939. Upon arrival in remote areas of the Soviet Union, they were deposited in prisons, labor camps, special settlements, and collective farms, and subjected to tremendous hardships and oppressive conditions. In 1942, some 115,000 Polish citizens - only a portion of those initially exiled from their homeland - were evacuated to Iran. There they were asked to complete extensive questionnaires about their experiences. Having read and reviewed hundreds of these documents, Jolluck reveals not only the harsh treatment these women experienced, but also how they maintained their identities as respectable women and patriotic Poles. She finds that for those exiled, the ways in which they strove to recreate home in a foreign and hostile environment became a key means of their survival. Both a harrowing account of brutality and suffering and a clear analysis of civilian experiences in wartime, Exile and Identity expands the history of war far beyond the military battlefield.
