Research in English

English functions as the 'lingua franca' for research into teaching and learning about the Holocaust (TLH). This chapter makes some observations about the research literature in English in general, and some trends in the literature regarding the US and UK; fewer studies address Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Canada. Allied powers opposed to the Axis in World War II hold themselves in relatively heroic positions with respect to the war and the Holocaust. Shared historical patterns of antisemitism, racial science or racial thinking are scarcely discussed
