Snitches in Communist Prague
Show notes
In this episode of Terribly and Terrifyingly Normal, we speak with Barbora Hola, Professor at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
She conducted research on informers in communist Prague. How many were there? How important were they to the regime? Why did people become informers? And how should they have been treated after the fall of the regime?
No only an interesting, but also a deeply personal conversation, as Barbora's own father was also an informer.
