Ebook: My Brother's Keeper: Recent Polish Debates on the Holocaust

In this volume, Antony Polonsky has translated and edited the most important contributions to this very public and very controversial debate. The contributors grapple with the terrible moral questions surrounding the treatment handed out by one set of the Nazis' victims to another. What could the Poles have done, and what were they willing to do? Many Poles vehemently argue their innocence, pointing to their utter helplessness before the Nazis, while others resolutely refuse to make excuses for standing by--or even aiding--the slaughter. This collection meets these dilemmas head-on, in a tough and troubling debate.
