REVIEW
Att bo granne med ondskan. Sveriges förhållande till nazismen, Nazityskland och Förintelsen
Göran Persson could see no reason for Sweden to be ashamed of anything it did during the war. Klas Åmark’s book is in every way a contribution to greater knowledge and vigorous debate. Those who want a powerful argument in favour of reading this work should consider this brief, simple motive: to find out how right Persson was and, later, how wrong.
