Uses and Abuses of History
from post-WWII Trials to the Russia's War in Ukraine
December 4-5, 2022
A two days international conference revealed how Russian state propaganda exploits variants of the Soviet narrative and its constructed memory of World War II and the Holocaust to justify its military aggression. These developments invited a discussion on the role of the Holocaust, the “Great Patriotic War”, and subsequent trials in nation-building, international law, and memory politics in Russia and in the former Socialist Bloc more broadly
