« Monuments in gratitude » to the Red Army in Poland are among the most
numerous and well-known commemorative structures from the communist period.
This does not mean, however, that the history of their construction and
existence has already been extensively studied and described. In post-
communist Poland, the « monument heritage » is regarded as an important part
of recent history of Poland or of Central-Eastern Europe, even though the
topic still gives rise to much controversy. Dominika Czarnecka's book is the
first attempt at a synthetic presentation of the history of monuments to the
Red Army erected outside of permanent cemeteries in post-war Poland. The work
was awarded a distinction at the Wladyslaw Pobóg-Malinowski Contest for the
Historical Debut of the year (2014). The Polish-language edition was also
among the nominees of the Polityka News Magazine History Award (Polish History
Book of the Year) in the debut category (2016).
