Eastern Europe was a crucial site of atrocity, complicity, and resistance during the Second World War; examining it today helps us understand the dangers of normalizing hate.

 

Professor Marci Shore is an historian of totalitarianism, with a focus on the intellectual history of twentieth and twenty-first century Central and Eastern Europe. In this lecture, Professor Shore situates Eastern Europe as a critical area for understanding the impact of absolute state power, exploring how individuals suffered from the parallel and overlapping experiences of Nazism and Stalinism.

 

This analysis will identify the patterns and dynamics that enable tyranny and lead to societal breakdown.
