Abstract
<p>The book demonstrates how the insufficient engagement with the Nazi past continues to fuel contemporary antisemitism, and what education can do to counter this. It analyses secondary and Israel-related antisemitism in both right- and left-wing discourses and considers the limits and potential of Holocaust education and antisemitism-critical pedagogy. The study is theoretically grounded in early critical theory and empirically based on case studies from post-Nazi societies. It demonstrates that educational work must go beyond the mere transmission of knowledge. It has to address the social functions of antisemitism, in order to foster reflection and transformation. The author is a social scientist who specialises in antisemitism, right-wing extremism, and education.</p>
