The volume focuses on the years following the First World War (1918–1923), when political, military, cultural, social and economic developments consolidated to a high degree in Eastern Europe. This period was shaped, on the one hand, by the efforts to establish an international structure for peace and to set previously oppressed nations on the road to emancipation. On the other hand, it was also defined by political revisionism and territorial claims, as well as a level of political violence that was effectively a continuation of the war in many places, albeit under modified conditions. Political decision-makers sought to protect the emerging nation states from radical political utopias but simultaneously had to rise to the challenges of a social and economic crisis, manage the reconstruction of the many extensively devastated landscapes and provide for the social care and support of victims of war.

When in 1989 the communist system tumbled, the whole world was astounded. Since the onset of the Round Table talks in Poland in February until the execution of Elena and Nicolae Ceauşescu in December, Central and Eastern Europe underwent a tempestuous yet relatively non-bloody process of breaking free from the communist regime. Today, thirty years down the road, the perspective seems distant enough to attempt comparative studies without being too emotional.

This publication is a summary of the authors' research commissioned by ENRS, which, in connection with its academic and educational activities, asked a group of scientists: what is worth learning about contemporary youth to create a reliable diagnosis of potentially dangerous attitudes or beliefs? The knowledge gained in this way is to help "vaccinate" young people against totalitarian inclinations.

The publication presents the 2020 catalogue of the exhibition 'Between Life and Death. Stories of Rescue during the Holocaust.'

The publication presents the 2019 edition of the Sound in the Silence project held at the Denkort Bunker Valentin memorial.

The volume reflects on the Oldenburg intellectual Enno Meyer (1913–1996). Scientists, companions, former students and family members provide information about the work and biographical background of the teacher, who became the "Spiritus Rector" of the German-Polish Textbook Talks and led efforts to educate on the discrimination and extermination of Jews in the region of Oldenburg.

In addition to his early imprints in the small-town milieu of Oldenburg and the German-national youth and student unions of the 1920s and early 1930s, the volume also covers his drastic experiences as a soldier in the Second World War. The period after 1945 was a cautious recommencement for Meyer. As a history teacher, he dealt from then on intensively with the German-Polish and the German-Jewish relationships, bringing awareness of the crimes committed during the Nazi period to his students and readers.
