Outside Looking In

"This is a fascinating and extremely timely edited volume from a diverse group of scholars who tackle intriguing topics, situated across the globe, with aplomb. I particularly appreciate that the editors have assembled pieces that both examine the global development of Holocaust universalization (Part I) as well as texts that focus on the limits of this universalization and its critics (Part II). This integrated and thoughtful approach is among the volume's great strengths." • Katrin Paehler, Illinois State University

“Taken together, most of the contributions to this volume offer a much-needed expansion of our knowledge of how the memory of the Holocaust has been universalized in particular settings. In addition to exploring Holocaust remembrance in places that have received little to no attention from scholars, overall the volume undermines simplistic characterizations of Holocaust memory as, at best, uncomplicated and, much worse, as a tool of past and ongoing oppression.” • Steven P. Remy, Brooklyn College
