The Holocaust and the Nakba are foundational traumas in
Israeli-Jewish and Palestinian societies and form key parts of each
respective collective identity. This book offers a parallel
analysis of the transmission of these foundational pasts in
Israeli-Jewish and Palestinian societies by exploring how the
Holocaust and the Nakba have been narrated since the signing of the
1993 Oslo Accords. The work exposes the existence and perpetuation
of ethnocentric victimhood narratives that serve as the theoretical
foundations for an ensuing minimization - or even denial - of the
other's past. Three established realms of societal memory
transmission provide the analytical framework for this study:
official state education, commemorative acts, and mass mediation.
Through this analysis, the work demonstrates the interrelated
nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the
contextualization of the primary historical events, while also
highlighting the universal malleability of mnemonic practices.
