Sociology and the Holocaust offers a comprehensive synthesis of the vast historical and social science literature on the before, during, and after of the Holocaust. As such, the aim of the book is not simply to describe the chronology of events, but to understand these events and the ongoing legacy of the Holocaust sociologically.
