Nakładem Wydawnictwa CSNE pojawiła się kolejna publikacja Polish and German Perspectives on Transitional Justice. World War Two and its Aftermath pod redakcją Wolfganga Froma oraz Dominiki Uczkiewicz.

Książka stanowi cenny wkład w badania nad sprawiedliwością okresu przejściowego. Jej wartość polega przede wszystkim na ujęciu spostrzeżeń polskich i niemieckich, które pomagających zrozumieć proces radzenia sobie z niewygodnymi prawdami i niepokojącą przeszłością – zarówno odgórną (polityka rządowa), jak i oddolną (ruchy obywatelskie i reakcje społeczne).

W ostatnich latach wyraźnie widać, że badania nad sprawiedliwością okresu przejściowego – a także leżące u ich podstaw ewolucje i wysiłki polityczne i społeczne – pozostają sprawą niedokończoną. Znaczenie polityki pamięci rośnie w aktualnych programach wielu krajów na wschodzie i zachodzie, dlatego niezwykle ważne jest, aby dyskusja na temat historii pozostała przynajmniej moderowana, jeśli nie aranżowana, przez naukowców.

In view ofthe high relevance in the past and present as well as the global relevance, the Willy Brandt Center has decided to dedicate a Summer School to the topic of regions in Europe and the world in 2022. The project aims to give especially young researchers fromthe worldwide DAAD Centre Network the opportunity for academic exchange and networking and at the same time to make a significant contribution to the academic discussion of the study of the region. The academic part of the Summer School will be accompanied by a cultural program that will trace the paths ofregional identity constructionsince the end of communist rule in 1989, based on the special history of Lower Silesia as a disputed border region.
