Abstract

"Holocaust memory constitutes a central component of historical consciousness and political culture in unified Germany, Israel, United States. Yet can we make the same claim about other parts of the world? How have societies that were not affected by Nazi occupation and extermination policies engaged with the legacies of the Holocaust? How have minority groups with their own experience of violence or persecution responded to manfestations of Holocaust memory? How has demographic change affected this memory in countries that have a historical link to the Holocaust? How have immigrants engaged with the crucial role that Holocaust history plays in Western political culture, the media, and educational systems? Taking a global perspective, 15 international experts analyze the development of Holocaust memory in Europe, North and South America, Israel, South Africa, and Asia. The volume locates and discusses contradictions within, and challenges to, a development that scholars have come to refer to as the "globalization" or "universalization" of Holocaust memory."

Abstract

Exchanges between different cultures and institutions of learning have taken place for centuries, but it was only in the twentieth century that such efforts evolved into formal programs that received focused attention from nation-states and empires. Global Exchanges provides a wide-ranging overview of this underresearched topic, examining the scope and scale of organized exchanges around the globe through the twentieth century. In doing so it dramatically reveals the true extent of organized exchange and its essential contribution to the formation of global networks so often taken for granted today.
