Reviews

Jelena Subotic pulls no punches in showing how contemporary problems in Eastern Europe-the rise of the far-right, revival of WWII-era fascist ideologies, emergence of extreme nationalist and populist rhetoric-can be linked to the criminalization of communist and anti-fascist past. This is an outstanding book. -- Jovan Byford, Open University, author of <I>Denial and Repression of Antisemitism</I> Yellow Star, Red Star is a passionate and engaging study of the politics of Holocaust memory in Eastern Europe after communism. Jelena Subotic has produced a first-rate piece of scholarship and one that's refreshingly enjoyable to read. -- Jeffrey Kopstein, University of California, Irvine, author of <I>Intimate Violence</I>
