In this talk, Professor Pető tells the story of erecting a memorial for women who were raped in World War II by German, Soviet and Hungarian soldiers in Hungary. Her talk explores various socio-political aspects surrounding it, such as the dramatic shift in the portrayal of wartime rape: from a silenced, unspeakable phenomenon, to a tangible spectacle; and the need to negotiate between the emerging national politics of remembrance and the maintenance of political and economic relations with Germany and Russia.

Andrea Pető is Professor in the Department of Gender Studies at Central European University, Vienna Austria and a Doctor of Science of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. She is teaching courses on European comparative social and gender history, gender and politics, women’s movements, qualitative methods, oral history, and the Holocaust.  Author of 7 monographs, editor of 31 volumes, as well as 266 articles and chapters in books published in 23 languages. Her articles have appeared in leading journals including East European Politics and Society, Feminist Theory, NORA, Journal of Women’s History, European Journal of Women’s Studies, Clio, Baltic Worlds, European Politics and Society, International Women’s Studies Forum, The Journal of Intelligence History, Journal of Genocide Research, Contemporary European History.
