I have placed another piece of mine that was published in 2008 on my
academia.edu page. The print version appeared as J. Otto Pohl, “Loss, Retention, and Reacquisition of Social Capital by
Special Settlers in the
USSR,
1941-1961” in Cynthia Buckley, Blair Ruble, and Erin Trouth Hofmann, eds.,
Migration,
Homeland and Belonging in Eurasia (
Washington
DC:
Woodrow
Wilson Center
and
Baltimore,
MD:
John Hopkins University
Press, 2008). An electronic version can now be found
here. Feel to leave any comments you have about the work here.

ReplyDeleteHas anyone prepared an indictment of Stalin in absentia for his manifold crimes? Perhaps there should have been a script for a trial in allegory?
