Description
The author argues that the challenge of comparative genocide memory(as opposed to comparative genocide studies) consists of developing cultures of remembrance that pay similar respect to victims of different mass crimes. In this chapter, using a multidirectional approach, the boundaries of Holocaust memory are remapped by drawing on theories of media and mediation.
