Offener Brief zur Verteidigung der akademischen Freiheit und des deutsch-polnischen Holocaust-Historikers Grzegorz Rossoliński-Liebe

 

Wir, die Unterzeichner*innen, protestieren gegen die staatlich-geförderten und diffamierenden Angriffe auf Grzegorz Rossoliński-Liebe und die anhaltende Einschüchterungskampagne gegen Wissenschaftler*innen und die akademische Freiheit in Polen und Deutschland. Nach der Veröffentlichung seiner Monographie im August 2024 über polnische Bürgermeister und den Holocaust im Generalgouvernement wurde Grzegorz Rossoliński-Liebe zum Ziel koordinierter Angriffe der polnischen Regierung, des Instituts für Nationales Gedenken, der polnischen Botschaft in Berlin, der Kulski-Stiftung, der Polnischen Akademie der Wissenschaften und rechtsradikaler Journalisten.

 

Die Kampagne begann, als das Buch erschienen ist. Zu dieser Zeit verlangte die Kulski-Stiftung von dem De Gruyter Verlag, das Buch nicht zu veröffentlichen, weil auf dem Cover ein Foto des Warschauer Bürgermeisters Julian Kulski zu sehen ist. Gleichzeitig behaupteten der ehemalige polnische Ministerpräsident Mateusz Morawiecki und polnische rechtsradikale Journalisten, dass das Buch geschrieben wurde, um „die Verantwortung für den Holocaust auf die Polen zu verschieben” – eine Darstellung, die vom damaligen Direktor des Instituts für Nationales Gedenken, Karol Nawrocki und heutigen Präsidenten Polens, in einem Beitrag auf X auch geäußert wurde.

 

Im November 2025 veröffentlichte das Institut für Nationales Gedenken eine 47-seitige „Rezension" des Buches (https://czasopisma.ipn.gov.pl/index.php/pjs/article/view/2761/2735), in der die Behauptungen des polnischen Präsidenten Nawrocki und polnischer rechter Kreise wiederholt wurden. Der polnische Botschafter in Berlin, Jan Tombiński, schüchterte die Organisatoren einer Buchvorstellung in der Topographie des Terrors ein, die um mehrere Wochen verschoben wurde. Dies führte zu weiteren Angriffen und Verleumdungen. Das YouTube-Kanal „Kanał Zero“, das über 2 Millionen Abonnenten hat, veröffentlicht ein diffamierendes Video über das Buch. Es folgten öffentliche Anfeindungen, Hassnachrichten und persönliche Drohungen gegen Grzegorz Rossoliński-Liebe. Die Situation wurde durch die Kulski-Stiftung weiter eskaliert, die einen öffentlichen Brief gegen das Buch und Institutionen verfasste, die es wagen würden, eine Buchpräsentation zu organisieren. Nachdem die Kulski-Stiftung über 150 Unterschriften von Wissenschaftler*innen und Persönlichkeiten des öffentlichen Lebens gesammelt hatte, überzeugte sie die Polnische Akademie der Wissenschaften, den Brief auf ihrem Facebook-Account zu veröffentlichen.

 

Das Buch von Grzegorz Rossoliński-Liebe basiert auf langjährigen gründlichen Archivforschungen. Es erklärt, wie polnische Bürgermeister während der deutschen Besetzung Polens handelten, und argumentiert, dass polnische Bürgermeister mit den deutschen Besatzern kollaborierten. In der Wissenschaft wird weiterhin diskutiert, was „Kollaboration” ausmacht und wie der Begriff definiert werden sollte; es gibt keinen wissenschaftlichen Konsens. Dieses Buch bietet eine Perspektive innerhalb dieser breiteren Debatte. Selbst wenn man mit Aspekten der Darstellung des Autors oder seinen Schlussfolgerungen nicht einverstanden ist, müssen Meinungsverschiedenheiten in die wissenschaftlichen Diskussionen getragen werden und nicht durch unbegründete und verallgemeinernde Angriffe angegangen werden. Die Aktionen derjenigen, die das Buch angreifen, zielen darauf ab, die wissenschaftliche Debatte zu unterdrücken, Forscher*innen einzuschüchtern und eine nationalistische Interpretation des Zweiten Weltkriegs und des Holocaust zu fördern.

 

Hassbriefe und Drohungen gegen Wissenschaftler*innen – nur weil sie eine historische Interpretation vertreten, mit der andere nicht einverstanden sind – sind niemals akzeptabel. Solche Kampagnen gegen wissenschaftliche Arbeiten stellen eine ernsthafte Bedrohung für akademische Freiheit und demokratische Werte dar. Unabhängig davon, wie man zu den Argumenten des Autors steht, ist es unabdingbar, dass die akademische Gemeinschaft in dieser Frage geschlossen auftritt.
