Abstract:
Surveys the changing and ambivalent views of Jews and things Jewish in West Germany from 1949 and in today's reunified Germany, focusing on reactions to the Holocaust and involving both antisemitic and philosemitic manifestations. States that the German and Jewish collective memories are inherently antagonistic and will continue to clash in light of present-day developments.
Note:
A revised version of his "Jews in the minds of Germans in the postwar period", which was delivered as the 1992 Paul Lecture at Indiana University, and published in 1993.
