| Résumé: | The pogroms that erupted in Poland’s eastern borderlands during the summer of 1941, as Soviet occupying forces withdrew and the Germans moved in, have drawn substantial scholarly interest. Beginning with Jan Gross’s Neighbors (Penguin, 2000), scholars have struggled to understand how Poles could turn so brutally on Jews in their communities. Tentative answers include the perpetrators’ belief in Jewish sympathy for the departing Soviet/Bolshevik regime, perpetrators’ attempts to deflect attention away from their own past Soviet collaboration, the state of lawlessness created by the collapse of state infrastructure, and their sheer greed for Jewish property., One wonders, however, whether pre war conditions in those locales also played a role. |
