Geneviève Zubrzycki, professor of sociology and director of the Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia, has been called upon to use her expertise on Polish-Jewish identity to comment on the Polish bill signed into law this month that outlaws accusations of Poland's cooperation in the Holocaust. Not only has Zubrzycki addressed the new law and how it impacts Polish relations with Israel and the United States, she has also given historical context to the issue and how it speaks to broader questions of Polish identity. Links to articles and interviews are below.
