Beskrivning
The aftermath of the Holocaust has been long and wide-reaching. Any act of mass murder and genocide leaves powerful traces: the trauma of the survivors, the challenge of punishment for the perpetrators and justice for the victims, and questions of how to properly commemorate and memorialize the loss and how to rebuild and restore. This is all the more true for the Holocaust, which has come to serve as a global cultural touchstone for evaluating mass violence. The legacy of the Holocaust has impacted every area of political and cultural life in many different countries since 1945. What is the state of aftermath studies for the Holocaust? How do we periodize the post-Holocaust landscape? Where are there continuities and where are there changes? How, when, and where has the Holocaust been globalized? In what areas did the Holocaust generate a fundamental rethinking of human relations and state institutions? And where did it not? This volume offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary account of the impact and legacy of the Holocaust around the world and demonstrates its enduring significance, from the postwar period to the present day.

Recensioner i media

'… the editors have assembled a truly international and intergenerational roster of contributors that reflects the vigor and breadth of the field and the diversity of the people who work in it. One particularly salutary consequence is that numerous chapters make a great deal of research in languages that are not usually accessible to English-speakers available to them … a compendium of multi-faceted and hard-won learning.' Peter Hayes, H-Soz-Kult
