New Eastern Europe  |  Issue 3 (IV) - 2012
The Summer 2012 issue of New Eastern Europe takes a closer look at the political and cultural developments taking place in the region. The theme of this issue, “New Europe, Old Problems” highlights the fact that even though we are in the 21st century, many of the problems these countries faced over 20 years ago before the collapse of the Soviet Union are still present today.
Included in the issue: Belarusian journalist Katerina Barushka tells the story of the 2011 Minsk metro attack and the execution of two young boys who were found guilty in carrying out the attack, while Paweł Kowal, a member of the European Parliament, advocates for a new approach toward Belarus. In addition, Adam Bodnar and Irmina Pacho from the Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights in Warsaw provide their perspective on Poland’s participation with the American CIA in the imprisonment of terror suspects on Polish soil.
An interview with Timothy Garton Ash convinces us “that we cannot talk about a new Iron Curtain. The lines are both more fluid and more complex.” while Tad Taube, of the Taube Foundation for Jewish Life and Culture advocates for Poland to rediscover its Jewish heritage in 21st century Eastern Europe.
