Meet the Jury: Communication, Silence and Agency: Polish Bishops and the Vatican facing the Holocaust

Jan Tomasz Gross (Princeton University) – “Neighbors” and Holocaust Historiography

“There are not many other cases when one single book about history, written by an academic, not only provoked a massive and stormy nationwide debate involving mass media, political leaders and bishops, but also unleashed processes that strongly influenced the self-perceptions of a nation, opening the way for ground-breaking new historical research and, at the same time, for political responses which had a tangible impact on the direction in which the whole country moved.” (Paweł Machcewicz, Contemporary European History, 2023).
