History: Understanding the Holocaust
The course will examine the background to one of the defining events of the C20th. How and why did the German people come to perpetrate arguably the largest crime of a troubled century? Was this the actions of a relatively small number of antisemitic zealots or did the responsibility go much wider within German society? How far were the populations in the countries where the Holocaust took place active participants in mass murder.
As we pause to remember on each Holocaust memorial day, to what extent is our perception and remembrance partial and distorted?
These are some of the questions this course will address. The subject matter is inevitably difficult but it remains important to understand how these events came to pass.
This course is funded by Greater London Combined Authority.
