The Global Landscape of Holocaust Memorials since 1945
January 19, 2011 @ 12:00 am
Since the January 2000 Stockholm conference “The Holocaust – Education, Remembrance and Research,” which was attended by high-level representatives from 46 countries, there has been much discussion of a “globalization” of memory of the Nazi Holocaust. This lecture uses memorials and museums to trace the origins and spread of public awareness of “the” Holocaust and its changing meanings from the 1940s to the new millennium.
The presentation will be followed by a response from Richard Hecht (Religious Studies, UCSB).
Sponsored by the IHC’s Geographies of Place Series.
