Book Synopsis LABOUR CAMP JASENOVAC by : Igor Vuki_
Download or read book LABOUR CAMP JASENOVAC written by Igor Vuki_ and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ustasha camp in Jasenovac is a sensitive historical theme, which still provokes strong political conflicts more than 70 years after the closure of the camp. During the time of the second Yugoslavia, the camp was made into a myth and one of the main levers for disciplining the society of the time. The Communist Party imposed the number of 700,000 victims and an exaggerated view of the alleged crimes and methods of killing inmates. The aim was to present itself as sole guarantor of security, because in the case of its "reigning-in", the fratricidal war would happen again, with Jasenovac as its main symbol. Before 1990, an attempt to point out the absurdity of the 700,000 alleged victims of Jasenovac entailed going to prison or compulsory psychiatric treatment. The documents referenced in this book indicate the need to continue with research of the Jasenovac camp and that in a democratic atmosphere, as far as possible, its realistic historical picture may be reached.
Book Synopsis Jasenovac Concentration Camp by : Andriana Benčić Kužnar
Download or read book Jasenovac Concentration Camp written by Andriana Benčić Kužnar and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-04-21 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents state-of-the-art discussions around the concentration camp Jasenovac. Initially one of the largest camps of the Second World War, Jasenovac became a symbol of supra-national unity during the Yugoslav period and in the 1990s re-emerged as a contested symbol of narrational victimhood. By analyzing some of the most controversial topics related to the Second World War in south-eastern Europe – the Holocaust, the genocide of Serbs and Roma, the issues of political prisoners and state-sponsored crimes, censorship during Communist Yugoslavia, the use of memory in war propaganda, and representation of tragedies in museums and art – the book allows for a greater understanding of the development of intergroup violence in the former Yugoslavia. It will be of interest to scholars and students of history, genocide studies, memory studies, and sociology as well as professionals working in the field of conflict resolution and reconciliation.

Book Synopsis The Death Camps of Croatia by : Raphael Israeli
Download or read book The Death Camps of Croatia written by Raphael Israeli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Death Camps of Croatia, Raphael Israeli shows that throughout Yugoslavia during World War II, anti-semitism was both deeply rooted and widespread. This book traces the circumstances and the historical context in which the pro-Nazi Ustasha state, encompassing Croatia and Bosnia, erected the Jadovno and Jasenovac death camps. Israeli distills fact and historical record from accusation and grievance, noting that seventy years later, the gap in research and the collection of data, memoirs, and oral histories has become almost irreparable. This volume meets the challenge, basing its conclusions on evidence from participants from the period. The battle between the Serbs and the Croats is not likely to be settled any time soon. Both sides have accused the other of the wrongdoings that everyone knows occurred. While the German Nazis, Croat Ustasha, Serbian collaborators, Cetnicks, and Bosnian Hanjar recruits are often seen as the wrongdoers, there were individuals who helped the Jews, hid them at great risk, and enabled them to survive. These people absorbed the Jews in their own ranks, and gave them the means to fight; they were the only people who helped the Jews. This volume is not about judging one side or the other; it is about acknowledging the evil all sides inflicted upon the Jewish minority in their midst. Serbs, Muslims, and Croats continue to dominate the ex-Yugoslavian scene. It has been their arena of battle for centuries, while the flourishing Jewish minority culture in that area has all but come to a historical standstill and has almost completely vanished. Yet the struggle over the historical record continues.
Book Synopsis Jasenovac Then and Now by : William Dorich
Download or read book Jasenovac Then and Now written by William Dorich and published by . This book was released on 2016-02-15 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After Hitler brought Ante Pavelic to power in 1941, Pavelic created 34 "summary" courts throughout Croatia. He empowered every Croatian to arrest and kill Serbians without being charged with a crime. Any Croat could sit on these "courts," including former convicts who issued arrest warrants and passed out death sentences. Mobile courts roamed the countryside in which Serbs were arrested, tried, convicted and hanged-within hours of their capture. Numerous photographs of this period show thousands of victims hanging from trees and lamp posts throughout Croatia and Bosnia. Not a single person was brought to justice for these crimes against humanity. While the crimes of Jasenovac have finally, after 55 years, become the subject of discussion at an American college, it is paramount that we do not over-emphasize Jasenovac, as the vast majority of Serbian victims in the Holocaust were eliminated without being prisoners of any death camp, and were spared the grotesque deaths at camps like Jasenovac where victims were bludgeoned to death to save bullets, or worse, slowly dismembered to the pleasure of their tormentors.This book is the presentation of William Dorich at the First International Conference and Exhibition on the Jasenovac Concentration Camp sponsored by the Holocaust Resource Center at Kingsborough Community College, C.U.N.Y., New York. Its 60 pages reveal first person testimonies of some of the worse crimes of the 20th century including a partial list of 430 Roman Catholic priests who participated in the slaughters of tens of thousands of Serbs, then fled to Argentina with false passports created inside the "Vatican Ratline."

Book excerpt: Memoirs of a Jew born in 1923 in Sarajevo. In December 1941 the Croatian Ustasha arrested him and his father, and in February 1942 deported them to the Jasenovac concentration camp. Describes the bestial atrocities and wanton killings of prisoners, Jewish and Serbian, perpetrated by the Ustasha guards. In April 1942 Danon Braco and his father were transferred to the Stara Gradiška camp, and later to the agricultural labor camps of Ferićanci and Obradovci. In September 1942 Danon Braco and six other prisoners escaped from Obradovci and joined the partisans. His father was killed; his mother and two sisters survived in Italian-occupied Dalmatia. After the war he settled in Belgrade.
Book Synopsis Yellow Star, Red Star by : Jelena Subotić
Download or read book Yellow Star, Red Star written by Jelena Subotić and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-12-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yellow Star, Red Star asks why Holocaust memory continues to be so deeply troubled—ignored, appropriated, and obfuscated—throughout Eastern Europe, even though it was in those lands that most of the extermination campaign occurred. As part of accession to the European Union, Jelena Subotić shows, East European states were required to adopt, participate in, and contribute to the established Western narrative of the Holocaust. This requirement created anxiety and resentment in post-communist states: Holocaust memory replaced communist terror as the dominant narrative in Eastern Europe, focusing instead on predominantly Jewish suffering in World War II. Influencing the European Union's own memory politics and legislation in the process, post-communist states have attempted to reconcile these two memories by pursuing new strategies of Holocaust remembrance. The memory, symbols, and imagery of the Holocaust have been appropriated to represent crimes of communism. Yellow Star, Red Star presents in-depth accounts of Holocaust remembrance practices in Serbia, Croatia, and Lithuania, and extends the discussion to other East European states. The book demonstrates how countries of the region used Holocaust remembrance as a political strategy to resolve their contemporary "ontological insecurities"—insecurities about their identities, about their international status, and about their relationships with other international actors. As Subotić concludes, Holocaust memory in Eastern Europe has never been about the Holocaust or about the desire to remember the past, whether during communism or in its aftermath. Rather, it has been about managing national identities in a precarious and uncertain world.
Book Synopsis Visions of Annihilation by : Rory Yeomans
Download or read book Visions of Annihilation written by Rory Yeomans and published by University of Pittsburgh Pre. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fascist Ustasha regime and its militias carried out a ruthless campaign of ethnic cleansing that killed an estimated half million Serbs, Jews, and Gypsies, and ended only with the defeat of the Axis powers in World War II. Rory Yeomans analyzes the Ustasha movement's use of culture to appeal to radical nationalist sentiments and legitimize its genocidal policies. He shows how the movement attempted to mobilize poets, novelists, filmmakers, visual artists, and intellectuals as purveyors of propaganda and visionaries of a utopian society. Yeomans chronicles the foundations of the movement, its key actors and ideologies, and reveals the unique conditions present in interwar Croatia that led to the rise of fascism.

Book Synopsis The Independent State of Croatia 1941-45 by : Sabrina P. Ramet
Download or read book The Independent State of Croatia 1941-45 written by Sabrina P. Ramet and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special issue provides important new scholarship from a variety of perspectives on the structure, ideology and political history of the central fascist group in interwar and Second World War Yugoslavia, the Croatian Ustasha. It is the first volume in English to closely explore the Ustasha’s Independent State of Croatia between 1941 and 1945, a period when it was an active collaborator with Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy, and largely responsible for Yugoslavia suffering the highest proportion of national casualties in the Second World War. By using the top scholars in the field to explore the nature of the NDH, The Independent State of Croatia 1941-45 contributes to scholarly understandings of Croatian nationalism, Balkan politics, European fascism, and genocide in the Second World War.
Book Synopsis Balkan Holocausts? by : David Bruce Macdonald
Download or read book Balkan Holocausts? written by David Bruce Macdonald and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Balkan Holocausts? compares and contrasts Serbian and Croatian propaganda from 1986 to 1999, analyzing each group's contemporary interpretations of history and current events.
