Description
Amos Goldberg's article focuses on Zygmunt Bauman's role in conceptualizing the relationship between the Holocaust and modernity, and the discussion generated by his book. Central to our understanding is the question: to what extent were the Nazi regime and the mass political violence of the past fundamentally related to major aspects of the modern era?
