Through a series of regional case studies, this book presents the Holocaust not as a single monolithic or one-dimensional event, but as a complex process with many human actors and local contexts.

Covering Western and Eastern Europe, this book looks at the Holocaust on the local level. It compares and contrasts the behaviour and attitude of neighbours in the face of the Holocaust. Topics covered include deportation programmes, relations between Jews and Gentiles, violence against Jews, perceptions of Jewish persecution, and reports of the Holocaust in the Jewish and non-Jewish press.

About the Author

Georgi Verbeeck is Professor of German History at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (Belgium) and Senior Lecturer at Maastricht University (the Netherlands).

About the Editor

Beate Kosmala is Senior Researcher at The German Resistance Memorial Center, Berlin.
