Podcasts about humane the expulsion

On this week's episode, Peter would like to know why we suddenly think it's okay to assassinate people again and Sarah is asking why would anyone want to clasp the poisoned chalice that is DG of the BBC? And the pair pore over our latest mailbag to talk about the unblinking horror of war, the justice system and Lucy Letby and dead guests at dinner parties (don't hold your breath waiting on an invitation from Peter, no-one's getting in his house).On our reading and watch list this week: · A Variety of Lives: Biography of Sir Hugh Greene - Michael Tracey· Rogue Male - Geoffrey Household· Black Lamb and Grey Falcon - Rebecca West· Orderly and Humane: The Expulsion of the Germans After the Second World War – R.M.

I imagine everyone who listens to this podcast knows about the Nazi effort to remake Central and Eastern Europe by expelling and murdering massive numbers of Slavs, Jews, and Gypsies. The results, of course, were catastrophic. Fewer listeners are probably well informed about the Allied effort after the War to remake Central and Eastern Europe by expelling massive numbers of Germans. The results, as R. M. Douglasdemonstrates in his well-researched, even-handed book Orderly and Humane: The Expulsion of the Germans after the Second World War (Yale University Press, 2012), were catastrophic. As many as 14 million Germans were displaced and somewhere between 500,000 and 1.5 million parished. Of course the Nazi and Allied “ethnic cleansings” (if that’s the right word) were not equivalent, a point that Douglas goes to great pains to emphasis. But the one is well known and the other is not. Until now. I urge you to read this book and find out what happened in this largely forgotten (and very disturbing) episode in the history of the Second World War and its aftermath.
