This book is the first comprehensive, as well as impartial, account
of the various ways the people of the state of Israel, beginning
with their social integration in the 1950s, grappled with the still
fresh memory of the Holocaust and with finding a suitable way of
commemorating it and passing that memory on to future generations.
The public debate in Israel in the 1950s over the question of the
Jewish response to the Nazi policy of extermination in areas under
German domination during the Holocaust is the core of the book.
Contrary to common assumption the book exposes the disagreements
and differences of opinion which guided, and disturbed, Israeli
society and its leadership, and raised fundamental questions
concerning the collective memory of the Holocaust. Thus it throws
light on the nature of Israeli society in the fifties as well as on
the fears and the needs of its political leaders.
