Until now we were familiar with the external results of such policies but this book will facilitate the understanding of how things worked from the inside of the Soviet and Stalinist apparatus.
This book presents a documented history of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee in the Soviet Union during the Second World War, the Holocaust and the immediate post-war years, up to the end of 1948. It centers upon the tragic fate of Soviet Jewry under both Hitler and Stalin. This is the first publication of documents from the newly opening Russian Archives, primarily from the Russian State Archive and the former Archive of the Communist Party with new insight of how Soviet and Stalinist policies towards Jews and the JAFC were shaped and the decision making process involved.
