Opis

This book analyses four case studies of Holocaust memory activist groups in Poland, contextualized within recent debates about Polish-Jewish relations and approached through a theoretical framework informed by critical theory. Each case is located in a different region of Poland-Lublin, Kraków, Sejny and Auschwitz-and each activist group is presented with attention to the local context and specific dynamics of its vision and strategy. Using research based on extensive fieldwork, including interviews and direct observation, the author argues that these advocacy groups demonstrate a range of interpretations of memory studies concepts such as "reconciliation" and "identity." Further drawing on works from semiotics and critical trauma studies, the volume analyzes the assumptions each group makes about three dimensions of Holocaust memory: 1) the relationship of the individual to Polish national identity; 2) the possibility of a reconciled Polish-Jewish history; and 3) the assignment of traumatic suffering to a particular group or event.
