Professor Hana Kubatova teaches at the Faculty of Social Sciences at Charles University. Her main research interests are the Holocaust and its aftermath, topographies of violence, how ideas and ideologies travel, political religions, and more.
Prof. Kubatova is the author of The Jew in Czech and Slovak Imagination, 1938-89: Antisemitism, the Holocaust, and Zionism and Nepokrades!: Nalady a Postoje Slovenske Spolecnosti k Zidovske Otazce, 1938-1945.
Her upcoming book’s previous title was Where the Foxes Say Goodnight: Christian Nationalism and the Making of the Holocaust in Slovakia. The present working title is Christian Nationalism Nation-building and the Making of the Holocaust in Slovakia. It is set to be published in 2025 by Oxford University Press.
Small note: we do not touch on this change in the title until the end of the episode, so bear that in mind when listening.
The overall theme of this episode is on Slovakia’s role in the Holocaust and how that history has been revised since 1945. I hope you enjoy.
