The Destruction of Romanian and Ukrainian Jews During the Antonescu Era (East European Monographs)

More about the book

The Romanian chapter in the history of European Jewry during the Nazi era is replete with complex and controversial issues, including the anti-Jewish measures of the late 1930s, the pogroms of the early 1940s, and the mass murders of Jews in Romanian-occupied parts of Ukraine. Divided into four parts, the book includes an analytical view of anti-Semitism as reflected in the 1940-1944 records of the Council of Ministers; the genocidal drive against Romanian and Ukrainian Jews during the Antonescu era; the "foreign factor" in the history of the Holocaust in Romania; and the myths and history-cleansing campaigns spearheaded by Roman nationalists.
