  • Jewish and Romani Families in the Holocaust and its Aftermath

    by Eliyana R. Adler, Katerina Capková, Natalia Aleksiun, Viktoria Banyai, Laura Hobson Faure, Robin Judd, Dalia Ofer, Anja Reuss, Helena Sadílková0, Joachim Schlör1, Michal Unger2, Sarah Wobick-Segev3, Volha Bartash4 ...
    Diaries, testimonies and memoirs of the Holocaust often include at least as much on the family as on the individual. Victims of the Nazi regime experienced oppression and made decisions embedded within families. Even after the war, sole survivors often described their losses and rebuilt their lives with a distinct focus on family. Yet this perspective is lacking in academic analyses.In this work, ...

  • Children in the Holocaust and its Aftermath

    Historical and Psychological Studies of the Kestenberg Archive

    Edited by Sharon Kangisser Cohen, Eva Fogelman, Dalia Ofer ...
    The testimonies of individuals who survived the Holocaust as children pose distinct emotional and intellectual challenges for researchers: as now-adult interviewees recall profound childhood experiences of suffering and persecution, they also invoke their own historical awareness and memories of their postwar lives, requiring readers to follow simultaneous, disparate narratives. This ... Read more

  • Wartime Rape and Sexual Violence

    An Examination of the Perpetrators, Motivations, and Functions of Sexual Violence Against Jewish Women During the Holocaust

    by Alana Fangrad ...
    Given the extensive body of Holocaust literature, it may be surprising to note that there is a distinct gap of reflection, analysis, and qualification in the area of sexual violence. The subject of sexual violence during the Holocaust, in particular, the sexual violation of Jewish women, is a subject that has been largely repressed and silenced. Thus, this thesis is an attempt to not only rectify ... Read more

  • Fascism

    by Roger Griffin ...
    Series series Key Concepts in Political Theory
    The word ‘fascism’ sometimes appears to have become a catch-all term of abuse, applicable to anyone on the political right, from Hitler to Donald Trump and from Putin to Thatcher. While some argue that it lacks any distinctive conceptual meaning at all, others have supplied highly elaborate definitions of its ‘essential’ features. It is therefore a concept that presents unique challenges for any ... Read more

  • An Analysis of Daniel Jonah Goldhagen's Hitler's Willing Executioners

    Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust

    by Simon Taylor, Tom Stammers ...
    Series series The Macat Library
    Daniel Goldhagen's study of the Holocaust offers conclusions that run directly counter to those reached by Christopher Browning, whose book Ordinary Men is also the subject of a Macat analysis. As such, the two analyses make possible some interesting critical thinking exercises focused on evaluation of the evidence used by the two historians. For Goldhagen, a chief reason for German actions was ... Read more

  • An Analysis of Timothy Snyder's Bloodlands

    Europe Between Hitler and Stalin

    by Helen Roche ...
    Series series The Macat Library
    A flagbearer for the increasingly fashionable genre of "transnational history," Timothy Snyder's Bloodlands is, first and foremost, a stunning example of the critical thinking skill of evaluation. Snyder's linguistic precocity allows him to cite evidence in 10 languages, putting fresh twists on the familiar story of World War II fighting on the Eastern Front from 1941-45. In doing so, he works to ... Read more

  • Free as a Jew

    A Personal Memoir of National Self-Liberation

    by Ruth R. Wisse ...

Their daughter, Ruth, grew up in the shadow of genocide—but in tandem with the birth of Israel, which remained her lodestar. She learned that although Jewishness is biologically transmitted, democracy is not, and both require intensive, intelligent transmission through education in each ... Read more

    In the decade after the Second World War, 35,000 Jewish survivors of Nazi persecution and their dependants arrived in Canada. This was a watershed moment in Canadian Jewish history.

  • The Oxford Handbook of Holocaust Studies

    Edited by Peter Hayes, John K. Roth ...
