"Even those jaded by the seemingly-endless flow of holocaust studies will find reward in this innovative study. It is beautifully researched, well written, and beautifully (even elegantly) published. We owe a debt of gratitude to its editor and contributors for raising a question no one had previously asked, thereby holding a mirror to our too-frequent propensity toward silence and getting along."
(Bradley Shavitt Artson Conservative Judaism)"A solid, sensible, and exceedingly instructive volume. The scholarly standard is high, the contributions informative, the articlesm despite the essentially encyclopediac nature of the enterprise, clearly written."
(David Vital Jewish Studies)"A fascinating attempt to trace the cultural and political afterlife of the Holocaust in various national contexts... There is much outstanding scholarship from an impressive array of international scholars."
(Jewish Chronicle)" This work is a tremendous source for those interested in comparative analysis."
(Karen Bjornson Canadian Jewish Studies)The vast body of knowledge assembled about the Holocaust has reconstructed nearly every aspect of that tragedy. Monographs, document collections, memoirs, oral histories, novels, and films have all contributed to an understanding of the events that shocked the world into stunned silence in 1945. But what happened in the aftermath―as stunned silence gave way to a full realization of the horror―has not been as thoroughly studied. Indeed, there exists no systematic examination of how countries around the world have responded to the Holocaust after 1945.
Sponsored by the Holocaust Memorial Center and under the editorship of David S. Wyman, The World Reacts to the Holocaust is a major new reference work that chronicles, country-by-country, the impact of the Holocaust on world history. Covering twenty-two countries and the United Nations, the volume carefully traces the contentions and controversies involved in the efforts to come to terms with the Holocaust, from the attitudes and perceptions of 1945 to the political, economic, and cultural legacies of the 1990s.
Following a standard format, the essays, all written by prominent scholars, begin with a brief history of the Jews in each country prior to the Holocaust. They next address the characteristics of the Jewish settlements, the presence of anti-Semitism and any related violence, the role of Jews in the society, and the nature of the relationship between Jews and non-Jews. A brief narrative of the Holocaust in each country follows. Among the issues examined are the extent of the human destruction, the degree of collaboration, Jewish reactions, and efforts to save the Jews. The essays then proceed to the post-World War II era and recount the treatment of Holocaust survivors upon their return; the postwar trials of war criminals; the changes in the culture and economy of the postwar Jewish community and its position in the society; the political, literary, and historical responses to the Holocaust; and the evolving attitudes toward Jews and Jewish culture.
