This symposium explores communal violence in the destruction of ethnic communities in Eastern Europe during World War II, and the memory of it in remaking and building national identities after the war. Its conception is inspired by recent scholarly work on the commission and memory of Nazi occupation policies in that region, including the work of Omer Bartov, Wendy Lower and Joshua Rubenstein.
