Despite the availability of only fragmentary sources for these areas, a comparison can be made of certain aspects of these Councils with the pattern described by Trunk mainly for the central and western Polish territories.Among the issues discussed in the article are the establishment, composition and functions of the Jewish Councils, the role of women, the issue of Jewish social welfare and the attitudes of Jews toward the Councils. While the evidence confirms that many Jewish Councils acted as a break on the development of resistance, other documentation shows that they energetically intervened to ameliorate living conditions in the ghettos. It was personal corruption rather more than obedience to impossible German demands (made with the threat of death) that alienated some Jews from their leaders.Cairn free access
