Brothers in Arms. The National Liberation Front (EAM) and the Jews of the Greece

DOI

The book is an attempt to describe the relationship between the Eamic resistance movement and the Jewish element of Greece during the Occupation and is formed around the following themes: contacts of Jewish and Eamic resistance organizations from the beginning of the Occupation, contacts during the period of persecution, the grounded experience of survival in Free Greece, the persecution of Jews as communists during the Civil War. The presence of Jews in ELAS is studied separately as a pre-eminent condition for the formation of a resistance Jewish identity. In an attempt to assemble the divergent stories - and periodicals - of the Resistance and the Holocaust into a coherent narrative, the study attempts to outline the participation of Jews in the Eamic Resistance, to record and evaluate in their local and temporal context, specific actions of the EAM during of racial persecution and discuss issues of identity, ideology and memory. The book is both a product of archival and bibliographic research, as well as a study of oral testimonies, part of which were collected by the author himself in the framework of the periodical exhibition "Competitor. Greek Jews in the National Resistance "of the Jewish Museum of Greece (EME), 2014-2015, which he curated.
