Since 1963, the state of Israel has awarded the title of "Righteous
among the Nations" to individuals who risked their lives sheltering
Jews during the Holocaust. This distinction remained solely an
Israeli initiative until the late 1990s, when European governments
began developing their own national categories, the most prominent
of which was the "Righteous of France," honoring those who
protected Jews during the Vichy regime. In National Policy, Global
Memory, Sarah Gensburger uses this dramatic episode to lend a new
perspective to debates over memory and nationhood. In particular,
she works to combine two often divergent disciplines-memory studies
and political science-to study "memory politics" as a form of
public policy.
