Produktinformationen zu „Holocaust Denial “
Holocaust denial is a particularly malevolent form of racist incitement - the most up-to-date rationalization for hating Jews, thinly disguised under the mask of revising history. Not for nothing have the deniers been called assassins of memory, fanatics engaged in a new kind of symbolic genocide against the Jewish people. Where the mobs once cried "death to the Jews," the deniers now cynically proclaim that "the Jews never died" and "this truth will make you free." This interdisciplinary volume of essays analyzes the phenomenon of Holocaust denial and sheds light, among others, on the Jedwabne Debate, the trials of Ernst Zündel, and the Garaudy Affair.
Klappentext zu „Holocaust Denial “
Holocaust Denial. The Politics of Perfidy provides a graphic and compelling global panorama of past and present variations on this toxic phenomenon. The volume examines right and left wing French negationism, post-Communist Holocaust deniers in Eastern-Europe, the spread of denial to Australia, Canada, South-Africa and even to Japan. Leading scholarly experts also explore the close connection between Holocaust denial, global conspiracy theories, antisemitism and radical anti-Zionism - especially in Iran and the Arab world.
