Examining the future of Holocaust studies
Almost 70 years after the liberation of the concentration camps, the future of Holocaust studies has been discussed at a unique conference at the Universities of Southampton and Winchester, organised by the Parkes Institute for Jewish/non-Jewish Relations.
Uniquely, it featured talks by around 60 academic researchers from countries including Israel, the USA and China, museum professionals and 40 teachers from the south of England.
Topics covered included the role of interactive story-telling in Holocaust education, children’s memories and treatments of genocide stories in popular film and television.
