In this volume the conflicted memories of Communist repression and the Holocaust in the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Russia, Austria, Sweden, Switzerland, France, Germany, the former Yugoslavia, and Bulgaria are discussed between the poles of politics of history and communicative memories. The results contribute to a deeper understanding of the memory clashes in the different national arenas. The comparative approach allows also for the identification of transnational memory patterns. Finally, the country specific case studies are completed by a theoretical section, in which historians and cultural scientists reflect on contradictory aspects concerning memory, historiography, and learning in contemporary Europe.
