The Soviet Occupation of Estonia in 1940–41 and the Jews

Anton Weiss-Wendt

New York University

This article examines the Jewish experience during the Soviet occupation of Estonia. While the Soviets eliminated certain legal and social restrictions on the Jews, the latter suffered at least as much as other nationalities from Soviet repression. Nevertheless, many Estonians' perception of a special relationship between the Jews and the Soviet regime induced some Estonians to regard Nazi genocide with indifference or sympathy, and others to collaborate in the elimination of Estonia's Jews.
