Magdalene Gross has published articles in the Journal of Curriculum Studies, History of Education Quarterly, and Intercultural Education on Holocaust memorialization in Polish schools and textbooks, and is expanding her research into heritage tourism, murals, and reconciliation. She might have some ideas about sources.
Hi, I am researching the uses of ‘performativity’ in Holocaust memorialization. I seek to examine case studies of audience-participatory projects (e.g. artworks, new media, museum exhibitions, performances) which commemorate the World War II and the victims of the Holocaust.
Projects of interest for this study:
- ask participants to perform symbolic rituals and gestures of commemoration; or to contribute with written or oral responses

Encountering Perpetrators of Mass Killings, Political Violence and Genocide
University of Winchester, 1-3 September 2015
The conference will be held at the King Alfred Campus of the University of Winchester. The programme of the conference can be found here: https://encounteringperpetrators.wordpress.com/
The successful Conflict Resolution, Management and Negotiation Graduate Program at Bar-Ilan University has recently launched the International Summer Program in Identity-Based Conflict Resolution. This interdisciplinary Summer Program offers the opportunity to earn 11 academic credits in a period of four weeks (July 5-30) and get a certificate.
After seeing Curt Dunagan’s recent post in H-Holocaust about a study abroad program in Poland, I would like to announce a similar initiative with a few key differences that I have organized for summer 2015. My “Holocaust in Europe” tour and related field course at the University of Winnipeg is a 15-day exploration of key sites in central Europe focusing on Jewish life before the Second World War, Nazi genocide, and post-war memorialization.
