Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"This is a well-conceived volume that addresses a significant problem in the history of the Jews in the twentieth century - how survivors of the Holocaust resettled in many parts of the world, rebuilt (or failed to rebuild) their personal lives, and contributed (or did not contribute) to the development of Jewish communities and cultures in their new countries of residence. It is unique in both its interdisciplinary character and geographical scope." * David Engel, New York University "...an important contribution to the evolving field of research on Jewish life in the aftermath of the Holocaust. Almost every chapter introduces new research on unexamined areas of postwar Jewish history... By framing the study in a broad comparative manner, the book is one of the first of its kind and will make for essential reading in the field." * Avinoam Patt, University of Hartford

Reseña del editor:

Many books on Holocaust survivors deal with their lives in the Displaced Persons camps, with memory and remembrance, and with the nature of their testimonies. Representing scholars from different countries and different disciplines such as history, sociology, demography, psychology, anthropology, and literature, this collection explores the survivors' return to everyday life and how their experience of Nazi persecution and the Holocaust impacted their process of integration into various European countries, the United States, Argentina, Australia, and Israel. Thus, it offers a rich mix of perspectives, disciplines, and communities.
