The particular nature of the transformation depends on people’s historical perspectives and how they position themselves and their nation or community vis-à-vis the tragedy. Understandably, European Muslims perceive the Holocaust as less central to their history than do other Europeans. Yet while the acknowledgement and commemoration of the horrors of the Holocaust are increasingly important in Europe, Holocaust denial and biased views on the Holocaust are widespread in European Muslims’ countries of origin. In this book, a number of distinguished scholars and educators of various backgrounds discuss views of the Holocaust. Problematic views are often influenced by a persistent attitude of Holocaust denial which is derived, in part, from discourses in the Muslim communities in their countries of origin. The essays collected here explore the backgrounds of these perceptions and highlight positive approaches and developments. Many of the contributions were written by people working in the field and reflecting on their experiences. This collection also reveals that problematic views of the Holocaust are not limited to Muslim communities.Muslims in Global Societies Series,2543-053X ;5Religion and sociologyHistoryEmigration and immigrationSociology of ReligionHistoryHuman MigrationReligion and sociology.History.Emigration and immigration.Sociology of Religion.History.Human Migration.940.531503924Jikeli Gunther1623932Allouche-Benayoum Joelle1750500MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910438331303321Perceptions of the holocaust in Europe and Muslim communities4185145UNINA
