Beskrivning

This pedagogical and sociological analysis of Shoah (Holocaust) education in Israeli state schools is based on an empirical survey conducted in 2007-2009 among junior high school and high school students, teachers, principals in general and religious schools, and experts in the field. It explores issues such as materials and methods, beliefs and attitudes, messages imparted, pedagogical challenges, and implications for national and religious identity and universal values. Comparative and multi-dimensional analyses of sub-populations, such as by age and type of school, were conducted. The practical and theoretical implications of the findings are considered in the context of Shoah education in Israel and other educational settings over the past half century.

âErik Cohenâs important volume becomes increasingly pertinent as we face the challenges of teaching the Holocaust to new generations. With the publication of Identity and Pedagogy, his conclusions regarding the phenomenon of Holocaust education, both in Israel and other countries, will inform a wider audience, helping them both meet and overcome those challenges.â âAvner Shalev, Chairmen of the Directorate, Yad Vashem|âA visit at Auschwitz shall not be understood solely in the categories of remembrance and education. This is a contemporary rite of passage. This is the time when a man has to ask oneself a difficult question on their own responsibility for the shape of our world. The book constitutes the most complete analysis of the process of introducing and the outcomes of education programs about the Shoah.â âPiotr M. A. Cywinski, Director of the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum
