Politics, Violence, Memory highlights important new social
scientific research on the Holocaust and initiates the integration
of the Holocaust into mainstream social scientific research in a
way that will be useful both for social scientists and historians.
Until recently social scientists largely ignored the Holocaust
despite the centrality of these tragic events to many of their own
concepts and theories. In Politics, Violence, Memory the editors
bring together contributions to understanding the Holocaust from a
variety of disciplines, including political science, sociology,
demography, and public health. The chapters examine the sources and
measurement of antisemitism; explanations for collaboration,
rescue, and survival; competing accounts of neighbor-on-neighbor
violence; and the legacies of the Holocaust in contemporary Europe.
Politics, Violence, Memory brings new data to bear on these
important concerns and shows how older data can be deployed in new
ways to understand the "index case" of violence in the modern
world. -- Cornell University Press
