Description
Summary:Zaleski describes the pathogenic mechanisms that come into play in Polish society: in the processes of forgetting the extermination of our fellow citizens, Polish Jews, during the last war, as well as in the reasons behind the construction of a false historical imagination/ imaginarium of collective memory. In the Polish affective economy, ‘the Jews’ are a symptom that allows a noisy ‘neurotic minority’ to cast the collective in the role of victim, to give permanence to phantasms and pathological structures in our collective identity. Zaleski also expresses his alarm at the fact thatcurrently, official public discourse once again sanctions those practices.
