The Past in the Present: The Construction of Polish History - Eastern European Culture, Politics and Societies
Robert Traba
What do we remember from our national past and why? What are the dangers of history being (mis-)appropriated by politicians? The Past in the Present provides a critical analysis of recent disputes over Polish historiography. The author uses theories of Collective Memory as a guideline, and the Polish-German borderlands as his leitmotif.
