How is the Holocaust taught in schools? How do students make
sense of this challenging subject? How are people affected by
visits to Holocaust memorial sites?
Empirical research on teaching and learning about the Holocaust
that tackles these and other questions has grown rapidly over
the past fifteen years, a period marked by the professionalization
and expansion of the field.
In 2013, the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance
(IHRA) decided to carry out a study to establish a picture of this
emerging field of research. A multilingual expert team mandated
to collect and review research in fifteen languages identified
nearly 400 studies resulting in more than 600 publications.
Three years of work resulted in this book, which carries the field
beyond anecdotal reflections and moral arguments.
This systematic review includes research conducted in most IHRA
Member Countries as well as several non-member countries. The
multilingual focus of the project enables cross-cultural analyses
and the transfer of knowledge between various regions and
countries. The book’s two parts present the research by language
and by selected themes. This innovative transnational, translingual
study reflects IHRA’s core mission: to shape and advance
teaching and learning about the Holocaust worldwide.
