| Σύνοψη: | In 2018 Poland celebrated the centenary of the reestablishment of national independence following World War I. But that period was also a time of immense danger for the Jews of East Central Europe. William Hagen’s book explains the centrality of Judeophobia in pogroms that killed hundreds in the Polish lands and up to 50,000 more further east, where Polish, Ukrainian, and Russian (both Red and White) forces clashed. While the pogroms are well studied, Hagen provides an overarching framework to explain these murderous anti-Jewish events. Rather than focusing on economic competition or modern antisemitic ideology as the key motivations, Hagen explores how more deeply engrained Christian and peasant cultural notions led to the outbreaks of violence. |
