Jewish Life in the Time of ‘Illiberal Democracy’ - Second Installment in our Podcast Series

The Stephen Roth Institute for Contemporary Antisemitism and Racism is glad to announce the second podcast in our series "Antisemitism, Holocaust Memory and National Narratives in the Former Eastern Bloc".

Hungary’s Jewish community is the largest in central and eastern Europe, and its regime the most ‘advanced’ among its neighbors in undoing the tenets of liberal democracy. How does this affect the memory of the Holocaust in the country, as well as Jewish life more broadly?

Dr Raphael Vago, retired Senior Lecturer in History and research fellow at the Kantor Center for the Study of Contemporary European Jewry at Tel Aviv University, joins us in the studio.
