Holocaust Politics

"More than half a century after Nazi Germany's genocidal assault on the Jewish people, the Holocaust grips our attention as never before, raising hotly-debated questions: How is the Holocaust best remembered? What are its lessons? Who gets to answers those questions? Who owns the Holocaust? Those issues provoke disagreements that can be cutthroat or constructive. Taking its point of departure from the controversy that swirled around John Roth's aborted appointment as director of the Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies, a senior post at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., Holocaust Politics shows how contemporary attitudes and priorities compete to determine that all-important difference."--BOOK JACKET.

המשפט הראשון: A Jewish survivor of the Holocaust, Nazi Germany's destruction of the European Jews and millions of others who were caught in that genocidal web, Jean Amery (1912-1978) was a philosopher who thought long, hard, and well about what he had experienced in Auschwitz, the Nazi concentration camp and killing center that has nearly become synonymous with the Holocaust itself.
