Descrizione
Discusses representation of the Shoah in Israeli Holocaust films. Suggests that representation of the Shoah has changed from films in the 1940s and 1950s which advocated Israel as an alternative to the Diaspora (socialist Zionism), to an ideological instrumentalization in the 1970s by integrating the Shoah into the fear of isolation and threat of extermination, to post-Zionist themes in the 1980s.
