| Synopsis: |
With the demise of the Soviet Union and the collapse of Communism in Eastern Europe, a number of questions regarding the conventional understanding of totalitarianism could now be viewed in the new light. The classical studies of totalitarianism were undertaken when Nazism and Fascism had been vanquished, while the Soviet system still existed: this created an asymmetry which could now be overcome. The ideological Cold War edge which sometimes accompanied debates about totalitarianism was similarly blunted. The impetus which these developments could give to new angles of research and historical perspective was the focus of the conference 'Reflections on Europes Century of Discontent', held at the Institute for European Studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Over a dozen participants from eight countries -- political scientists, historians, lawyers as well as political activists -- took part in what was an exciting exercise in re-evaluation and re-assessments. The results are presented in this volume. |
