Difficult Legacies of 1989 and the New Hegemonies in Eastern Europe

Podiumsgespräch mit Andrzej Leder und Magdalena Grabowska in englischer Sprache

Moderation: Magdalena Waligórska-Huhle

Andrzej Leder's controversial "Polen im Wachtraum: Die Revolution 1939-1956 und Ihre Folgen" (Klio, 2019) triggered one of the most interesting historical debates of the last years. His thesis of how the expropriation of Jews and the destruction of the landowning class enabled the emergence of middle-class that later became the new elite after 1989, revisits some of the central traumas of Poland's recent history. Magdalena Grabowska, in turn, explores in her recent "Broken Lineage" (Scholar 2018) the marginalization of feminism and women's rights in the Polish post-1989 public discourse.

This panel conversation with both authors will trace these and others taboos at the root of the 1989 revolution, shedding a new light on its forgotten and overlooked aspects.

The next day a Workshop will follow up on the subject in the university.
