    Divided memories, shared memories: Poland, Russia, Ukraine

    History mirrored in literature and cinema

    In Central and Eastern European countries, memorial questions appeared right after the demise of the communist regimes in 1989–1991, revealing long-denied processes. The phenomenon of the rise of repressed memories along with the rewriting of history, and the political uses of the past are noticeable in Poland, Russia, and Ukraine, three countries whose histories are as often shared as their memories are divided. The “memory wars” in which these three states have sometimes been engaged since the end of the 1980s have been the subject of an abundant historiography.

    The confiscation and destruction of archives and libraries during the 20th Century

    A la suite du retour de Russie, à la fin du XXe siècle, d'archives françaises qui avaient été saisies une première fois par les nazis, puis par les soviétiques, les historiens ont commencé à étudier plus en profondeur l’étrange périple à travers l’Europe de ces documents et bibliothèques d’administrations publiques, d’associations, de syndicats, de partis politiques et de particuliers souvent juifs. Le moment paraît venu de faire le bilan des recherches effectuées et d’ouvrir de nouveaux champs d’investigation.
