Censorship of Historical Thought
Baets, Antoon De / de Baets, Antoon
History is an important, dangerous, and fragile subject. Historical thought can be censored in widely diverging political and historiographical contexts. Yet the problems of censorship, often thought to be obvious, are rarely studied. Filling a significant void, this guide supplies information on the censorship of historical thought and the fate of persecuted historians in over 130 countries from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe and from 1945 to 2000.
