The essays in this book reflect on the significance of the
Holocaust sixty years afterwards. In this time it has become
embedded in collective memory This book explores the idea that even
thought the tenets of Nazism--racism, dictatorship, expansionism
--have become unacceptable in the western world, little has
actually changed. Since 1945 crimes against humanity and human
rights have occurred throughout the world. The Holocaust thus
pre-figures a "death-drive" in contemporary culture: the idea that
the ability to deliver death is the supreme expression of
self-affirmation.
