Notes

Discusses the importance of remembrance of crimes committed throughout history, both for descendants of the victims and for the nations which committed the crimes. The memory of the crimes can prevent other crimes. Ch. 2 (pp. 39-86), "Auschwitz par comparaison", protests against banalization of the Holocaust, but asserts that this crime should be compared with others committed throughout history. Brings examples of other ethnocides, such as that of the Armenians and the Indians, and finds that the specificity and singularity of Auschwitz can be discussed only by comparison with other crimes. (From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism).
