National Cleansing: Retribution against Nazi Collaborators in

National Cleansing: Retribution against Nazi Collaborators in Postwar Czechoslovakia (Studies in the Social and Cultural History of Modern Warfare, Series Number 19)

This comprehensive history of postwar Czech retribution examines the prosecution of more than one-hundred thousand suspected war criminals and collaborators by Czech courts and tribunals after the Second World War. Based on archival sources that remained inaccessible during the cold war, the book provides a new perspective on Czechoslovakia's transition from Nazi occupation to Stalinist rule. Frommer asserts that the Czechs made a genuine, if flawed, attempt to confront past war crimes, including their own.
