Croatian Book on Jasenovac Distorts Holocaust History<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A new book about Croatia\u2019s WWII Jasenovac concentration camp distorts historical facts to suggest that inmates weren\u2019t interned because they were Jews, Serbs or Roma, and that they weren\u2019t systematically killed.<\/p>\n

\u2018Radni logor Jasenovac\u2019 (\u2018Jasenovac Labour Camp\u2019), the latest work by Croatian author Igor Vukic on the Croatian World War II concentration camp Jasenovac, published by Naklada Pavicic this year, seems like it is inspired by the publications of established Holocaust deniers.<\/p>\n

Instead of studying all the available archival records, testimonies and other publications, Vukic avoids confronting the totality of known information on the Jasenovac concentration camp system, and instead cherry-picks and publishes only carefully selected data which supports his ideologically-motivated agenda \u2013 the fabrication that Jasenovac was merely a labour camp where no mass murders took place.<\/p>\n

The argumentation and evidence cited by Vukic – who is not a history academic and has no degree or PhD in the field – is incomplete, distorted, and occasionally completely wrong.<\/p>\n

The footnoted sources are often lacking important data which makes corroboration of his writing very difficult, if not impossible.<\/p>\n

It is no coincidence that there are no peer reviews of Vukic\u2019s book by established scholars as is usually the case with historical works.<\/p>\n
