who martin pollack is

Martin Pollack was an Austrian journalist, book author, translator, Slavist and historian. "One of Austria's most distinguished public intellectuals", Pollack propagated fact-based truth and reconciliation in Austria for WWII crimes, which he saw as lacking in public discourse. Born into a family of devout Nazi supporters and war criminals at the end of World War II, Pollack managed to free himself from the beliefs of his family by way of his secondary schooling in the late 1950s in Salzburg.
