• Description

  Babi Yar: Realities The Kiev ravine of Babi Yar is one of the “capitals” of the Holocaust, the site of a record one-time murder of Jews, treacherously, under threat of death, gathered here supposedly for eviction. Almost 34 thousand were executed in just one and a half days - September 29 and 30, 1941 - a tragic record, half a percent of the Holocaust! The genre of the book is a historical and analytical chronicle, written on the principles of critical historicism, on a solid factual foundation and in a free objective journalistic manner. Its composition is strictly defined: in the center is the history of the executions at Babi Yar, along the edges is their prehistory and posthistory, the latter broken down into Soviet and Ukrainian parts. The focus, replacing each other, invariably turned to traditional concepts of anti-Semitism of different eras and colors - Russian (imperial), German (national socialist), Soviet (internationalist, but with a characteristic local originality) and Ukrainian (young nationalist). Includes English summary and index.
