The murder of six million Jews during the Holocaust is a crime that
has had a lasting and massive impact on our time. Despite the
immense, ever-increasing body of Holocaust literature and
representation, no single interpretation can provide definitive
answers. Shaped by different historical experiences, political and
national interests, our approximations of the Holocaust remain
elusive. Holocaust responses-past, present, and future-reflect our
changing understanding of history and the shifting landscapes of
memory. This book takes stock of the attempts within and across
nations to come to terms with the murders. Volume editors establish
the thematic and conceptual framework within which the various
Holocaust responses are being analyzed. Specific chapters cover
responses in Germany and in Eastern Europe; the Holocaust industry;
Jewish ultra-Orthodox reflections; and the Jewish intellectuals'
search for a new Jewish identity. Experts comment upon the changes
in Christian-Jewish relations since the Holocaust; the issue of
restitution; and post-1945 responses to genocide. Other topics
include Holocaust education, Holocaust films, and the national
memorial landscapes in Germany, Poland, Israel, and the United
States.
