 ic LectureKamil Kijek (University of Wroclaw)'Transnationalism of Polish J
 ews in the First Years after the Holocaust: Sources, Methods and Relevanc
 e for Today''s Global Jewish Historiography'In my lecture I will speak abo
 ut the transnationalism of Polish Jewish community in the first years afte
 r the Holocaust (1945-1950). By defending somewhat controversial hypothesi
 s that both in the dimensions of collective, institutional and private Je
 wish transnational contacts between Poland, Western Europe, North and So
 uth America, Land of Israel – this phenomenon had reached its peak in thi
 s period (and not in the years 1918-1939), I will show the relevance of t
 his problem, as well as sources and research methods connected to it, fo
 r new directions in global post-Holocaust Jewish historiography.Kamil Kije
 k is a Assistant Professor at the Jewish Studies Department, University o
 f Wrocław, Poland. He has been a Prins Foundation postdoctoral fellow at

 tudies he held various fellowships in Israel, Germany and United Kingdom.
