New Allies–Old Foes: Ethnic Relations on the Pages of the Lithuanian Press during the German Occupation, 1941–44
Abstract
The vast majority of scholarly literature about Nazi propaganda is usually focused on Nazi Germany, occupied Poland, or France. At the same time, the language of hatred and antisemitic stereotypes used on a daily basis during Nazi occupation in the Baltic states have received relatively less attention. This chapter examines different images and stereotypes directed against the Lithuanian Jews, Poles, and Russians, and tries to answer the question of what role Lithuanian intellectuals and journalists played in providing these stereotypes in the press.
