| Итог: | As the author of this wonderful, short work observes, “there has been no comprehensive scholarly treatment of … four related subjects: collaboration, accommodation, resistance, and retribution” (p. 11). Based on existing literature, Deák fills this gap with a rich and complex analysis of the most controversial and neglected aspects of the war. Unbiased, it destroys various national myths and presents a sad story about political and human weaknesses. If a few details could be debated, overall the work deserves the warmest reception., The greatest strength of Europe on Trial is its virtuoso elaboration of the striking paradoxes of the behavior of nation-states' governments and populations. |
