Combining Burzlaff’s historiographical overview with a chapter from Fulbrook’s recent book, these readings explore the relations between social groupings and the Holocaust. They raise questions about how to reconcile the Holocaust as a defining event in people’s lives with the variety of wartime experiences, bringing together debates on categorization, politics, geography and community.
