More than 70 years after the outbreak of World War II, the issue of survivor's identity in their place of settlement has not been entirely resolved. DellaPergola offers a contemporary definition of survivors according to the following criteria: a) those who were in concentration camps or ghettos b) those who fled or subsisted illegally c) those who were subject to a regime of duress and/or a limitation of their full civil rights due to their Jewish background. His analysis demonstrates that the Holocaust still has an impact on our thinking, our self-understanding, and our culture
