Jan Gross addresses the politics and memory of anti-Jewish violence in Poland after the Holocaust. Commenting on Polish-Jewish relations in the immediate postwar period, as well as on the ways in which Polish society has attempted to confront and master its own past, Gross considers questions of inter-ethnic conflict and genocide, institutions of social memory and national identity, and neighborly politics.
