As part of a worldwide vocabulary, that language helps set the tenor of the era of globalization. This volume addresses manifestations of Holocaust-engendered global discourse by critically examining their function and inherent dilemmas, and the ways in which Holocaust-related matters still instigate public debate and academic deliberation. It contends that the contradiction between the totalizing logic of globalization and the assumed uniqueness of the Holocaust generates continued intellectual and practical discontent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“Goldberg and Hazan must be congratulated on bringing together an important and exciting collection of essays that in their sheer interdisciplinary range are essential reading for scholars across the arts and humanities.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e· Holocaust Studies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“This is a superb, original, brave and powerful book… the readings of texts are fresh and provocative, and the book benefits from its wide range of approaches to the question of global memory… I was sent off in many different directions all at once after reading this—who can ask for more from a book, especially one on an ostensibly overcrowded field such as Holocaust Studies?”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e· Dan Stone\u003c\/strong\u003e, University of London\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003ePreface\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eAmos Goldberg and Haim Hazan\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eSECTION I: INTRODUCTIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 1.\u003c\/strong\u003e Ethics, Identity and Anti-Fundamental Fundamentalism: Holocaust Memory in the Global Age (a cultural-political introduction)\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eAmos Goldberg\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 2.\u003c\/strong\u003e Globalized Holocaust: An Anthropological Oxymoron (an anthropological- theoretical introduction)\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eHaim Hazan\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eSECTION II: HOW GLOBAL IS HOLOCAUST MEMORY?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 3.\u003c\/strong\u003e The Holocaust isn’t--and isn’t Likely to Become--a Global Memory\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e Peter Novick\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 4.\u003c\/strong\u003e The Holocaust as a Symbolic Manual: The French Revolution, the Holocaust, and Global Memories\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eAlon Confino\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 5.\u003c\/strong\u003e “After Auschwitz”:A Constitutive Turning Point in Moral Philosophy\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e Ronit Peleg\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 6. \u003c\/strong\u003eCosmopolitan Body: the Holocaust as Route to the Globally Human\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e Nigel Rapport\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eSECTION III: MEMORY, TRAUMA AND TESTIMONY: THE HOLOCAUST AND NON-WESTERN MEMORIES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 7. \u003c\/strong\u003eHolocaust Memories and Cosmopolitan Practices: Humanitarian Witnessing between Emergencies and the Catastrophe\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e Michal Givoni\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 8.\u003c\/strong\u003e The Global Semiotics of Trauma and Testimony: A Comparative Study of Jewish-Israeli, Canadian-Cambodian and Cambodian Genocidal Descendant Legacies\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e Carol Kidron\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 9. \u003c\/strong\u003eGenres of Identification:  Holocaust Testimony and Postcolonial Witness\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e Louise Bethlehem\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 10. \u003c\/strong\u003eCommemorating the Twentieth Century: The Holocaust and Nonviolent Struggle in Global Discourse\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e Tamar Katriel\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 11. \u003c\/strong\u003eRethinking the Politics of the Past: Multidirectional Memory in the Archives of Implication\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e Michael Rothberg\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eSECTION IV: THE POETICS OF THE GLOBAL EVENT: A CRITICAL VIEW\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \tChapter 12.
