The author discusses and quantifies the results of recent research of the German repressions for help offered to Jews in occupied Poland during World War II. Another layer of the paper covers an analysis of the political underpinnings of research on this subject conducted in today’s Poland, and its entanglement in the official politics of memory. Analysis of the construction and of the language of the publication which presents the research results, reveals areas of existing taboos and shows the defensive character of the contemporary discourse of rescuing Jews.

The author discusses the interdisciplinary volume Świadek: jak się staje, czym jest? [Witness: how does one become one, what it is?], edited by Agnieszka Dauksza and Karolina Koprowska that summarizes the long debate on the significance of testimony and the function of witness of various forms of violence. She focuses on the Holocaust witness that plays a substantial role in the research of the attitude of Poles to Jews during the war, showing how imprecise this category is and how it calls for more precision in its formulation. She also touches upon a problem of non-human witnesses as well as the scope of power of the witness and the testimony, and the institution that control it in different ways.

Povijest Nijemaca na europskom istoku i jugoistoku, i u bivšoj Jugoslaviji, napose u Podunavlju, predmet je mnogih radova povjesničara i publicista, u prvom redu njemačkih. Unatoč svemu, do danas nema cjelovita, objektivna prikaza povijesti jugoslavenskih Nijemaca. Naime, pred historiografijom su još uvijek mnoga otvorena i neriješena pitanja.

The article reviews the newest monograph of professor D. Kochenov on the critical analysis of the institution of citizenship. The main argument of the book consists in the injustice reinforced globally by the institution of citizenship from the perspective of the rights of an individual. The review refers to the issues discussed in the monograph concerning citizenship as a legal relation between an individual and the state, civil rights and obligations in a critical perspective. The author of the review underlines the significance of critical depiction rarely found in the Polish literature. However, he indicates possible areas for polemics with the reviewed monograph, in particular from the perspective of consular law. Polemic notes do not undermine the significance of this work as an important voice in the analysis of international law from the perspective of the rights of an individual.
