Résumé
The Terezin (Theresienstadt) ghetto-camp offers an example of a memorial site dedicated to the Jews, that was totally concealed by the Communist regime according to a policy dictated from Moscow. Between 1948 and 1989, at the same time of the “Velvet Revolution”, Terezin became a site of truncated narrative in which the Jewish specificity of the acts committed was designed to disappear or to be toned-down. In the 1960s, powerful anti-Semitism found Zionism as an ideal surrogate showing its old face. While reading Munk, one is struck by the old arguments of an anti-Zionism, now-a-days so widespread in the Arab world, as well as in the extreme left wing in the West.
