Recenzje

'Laurien Vastenhout has written the first major comparative study of the 'Jewish Councils' of Nazi-occupied Western Europe. Deeply researched and nuanced in its judgements of the councils' room for manoeuvre, Between Community and Collaboration is a significant contribution to scholarship which helps us understand the Holocaust as such.' Dan Stone, Royal Holloway, University of London
