Why we stayed: Confessions of postwar Polish Jews
Prof. Marian Turski, Chairman of the Museum of the History of Polish Jews, talks about Jewish life in Poland after the end of WWII, and explains why he and a handful other Polish Jews chose to stay in their native country despite persistent attempts to uproot them.
The social psychology of the conflict
Ruthie Pliskin, a social psychologist at Tel Aviv University and the Interdisciplinary Center in Herzliya, talks about the role of emotions in determining political action, and where left-wingers and right-wingers differ in this respect.
