HI 395 The Holocaust (3)
The Holocaust is one of the most horrific events in recorded human history. The systematic murder of millions by one of Western civilization's most sophisticated nations must be viewed as a radical break from the notion of the inevitability of progress; some of the elements of modernity that we consider vital to our own civilization were instrumental in implementing the Holocaust. Topics covered include racial antisemitism, the Nazi state, the creation and administration of concentration camps, survival testimony, and memorializing the Holocaust.
