In the long-awaited follow-up to her Pulitzer Prize-winning Gulag , acclaimed journalist Anne Applebaum delivers a groundbreaking history of how Communism took over Eastern Europe after World War II and transformed in frightening fashion the individuals who came under its sway.
At the end of World War II, the Soviet Union to its surprise and delight found itself in control of a huge swath of territory in Eastern Europe. Stalin and his secret police set out to convert a dozen radically different countries to Communism, a completely new political and moral system. In Iron Curtain , Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Anne Applebaum describes how the Communist regimes of Eastern Europe were created and what daily life was like once they were complete. She draws on newly opened East European archives, interviews, and personal accounts translated for the first time to portray in devastating detail the dilemmas faced by millions of individuals trying to adjust to a way of life that challenged their every belief and took away everything they had accumulated. Today the Soviet Bloc is a lost civilization, one whose cruelty, paranoia, bizarre morality, and strange aesthetics Applebaum captures in the electrifying pages of Iron Curtain .
Those Germans who had suffered as political prisoners in Hitler's concentration camps never enjoyed the confidence of the Soviet occupation authorities. It was as if their very presence in Nazi Germany had tarnished them in Soviet eyes. (查看原文)
A moaning by the walls half muffled:
The mother's wounded, still alive.
The little daughter's on the mattress,
Dead. How many have been on it
A platoon, a company perhaps?
A girl's been turned into a woman,
A woman turned into a corpse.
It's all come down to simple phrases:
Do not forget! Do not forgive!
Blood for blood! A tooth for a tooth! (查看原文)

Anne Applebaum’s book begins with one group of women in the Polish city of Lodz and ends with another. The 45 years between the end of the Second World War and the emergence of a free, non-communist Poland separate them. But the younger women have decided ...

和某国某朝各种共鸣 各种似曾相识；作者在尾声中指出 集权政治对社会传统价值造成了巨大的 有时甚至是永久性的伤害 而要重建则绝非那么简单 可谓一针见血；唯一缺点是因为要处理的维度过多（不同国家，以及政治经济社会生活各方面）而略嫌凌乱和琐碎

读完。作者在书前后介绍的波兰妇联的历史是个镜子，波兰妇联成立于二十世纪初，起初是一个公益性的妇女组织，二战后后被共产党政府控制，成为与中国妇联相同的一个橡皮图章，89年后获得独立，又恢复成为一个公益组织，成为多元化的民主波兰的一部分。

所以我朝和USSR都没有完全逆转的关键因素是人口吧。危急关头一支人够多、驻地够远以至于对当地居民没有感情的军队总能坏事儿。

这个副标题应该是1945-1953吧……完全在意料之内，因为这就是我们每天都在过的生活。从体例上来看，逻辑性不是很强，基本还是时间为序，研究的量和细节惊人。

书是好书，可东欧国家本就数量多，这本书虽主要集中于波兰匈牙利东德三地，但涉及内容过广过杂，阅读体验可忽略不计。从美式主义的乐观到苏联史到二战后斯大林化的东欧史，到头来我也终究是踏上了这条悲观的道路。 “冷”知识：纳粹集z营多为苏联红军所解放，但因一直被灌输“东欧穷困潦倒民不聊生，需要共c主义救赎”，于是在红军发现就连最贫困的东波兰都比苏联生活水平高了不知多少倍时，他们终于信仰崩塌，开始无差别疯狂劫... 书是好书，可东欧国家本就数量多，这本书虽主要集中于波兰匈牙利东德三地，但涉及内容过广过杂，阅读体验可忽略不计。从美式主义的乐观到苏联史到二战后斯大林化的东欧史，到头来我也终究是踏上了这条悲观的道路。 “冷”知识：纳粹集z营多为苏联红军所解放，但因一直被灌输“东欧穷困潦倒民不聊生，需要共c主义救赎”，于是在红军发现就连最贫困的东波兰都比苏联生活水平高了不知多少倍时，他们终于信仰崩塌，开始无差别疯狂劫掠随机杀人并不分年龄强暴妇女，反犹反徳反一切，可谓「妖魔鬼怪齐聚一堂」。假如说以上这些都离我们太过“遥远”，那接下来发生的绝保老生常谈：国有化产业，宗教压迫，秘密jc，教育渗透（从幼儿园起贯彻党的伟大思想），对竞技体育的执着（运动会歌舞太平的宏大仪式），社会主义形式的艺术作品等等不一而足。 (展开)

在古拉格跟这本之间犹豫了一下还是先看了这本，古拉格九百多页我真的吃不消，还是老老实实去听有声书吧。Anne Applebaum的文笔实在是好，阅读体验么，就，太阳底下无新事我已经说倦了。一个格外令人毛骨悚然的时刻，是我发现自己看着看着，潜意识里开始点评（）这里做得不够绝、那里明显掉链子，这要是换成【】，活计干得肯定比这利索得多。反应过来那一瞬间，真的彻骨恶寒。
