The Future of the Holocaust: Between History and Memory

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lang, Berel, PUBLISHER: Cornell University Press, In ong>Theong> Future of ong>theong> Holocaust, Berel Lang continues his inquiry inong>toong> ong>theong> causal mechanisms of decision-making and conduct in Nazi Germany and inong>toong> responses ong>toong> ong>theong> ong>genocideong> by individuals and nations -- an inquiry that he began in Act and Idea in ong>theong> Nazi ong>Genocideong> and pursued in Heidegger's Silence. Raising ong>theong> question now of what ong>theong> future of ong>theong> Holocaust is, he addresses among oong>theong>r ong>toong>pics how hisong>toong>ry and memory ong>toong>geong>theong>r shape views of ong>theong> Holocaust; how ong>theong> concept of "intention" -- which played a crucial part in ong>theong> events of haft a century ago -- shapes hisong>toong>ry and memory ong>theong>mselves; and how future views of this ong>genocideong> may alter those of ong>toong>day. In addition, Lang explores cultural representations of ong>theong> "Final Solution" -- from monuments ong>toong> public school curricula -- within ong>theong> Jewish and German communities. He analyzes ethical issues concerning such concepts as intention, responsibility, forgiveness, and revenge, and puts forward a ong>theong>ory of ong>theong> hisong>toong>ry, of evil which provides a context for ong>theong> Holocaust both hisong>toong>rically and morally. Addressing ong>theong> claims that ong>theong> Nazi ong>genocideong> was unique, Lang argues that ong>theong> Holocaust is at once an actual series of events and a still future possibility. If ong>theong> Holocaust occurred once, he argues, it can occur twice -- and this view of ong>theong> future remains an unavoidable premise for anyone now writing or thinking about that event in ong>theong> past.
