Attempting to provide a sociological explanation of the Holocaust, the main theme of this work is the demonstration that the Holocaust has to be understood as deeply involved with the nature of modernity - neither a single event nor a simple outpouring of barbarism. The author discusses what sociology can teach us about the Holocaust, but more particularly concentrates upon the lesson which the Holocaust has for sociology. There are two ways, he points out, in which the significance of the Holocaust can be side-stepped in our understanding of modernity. One way is to present the Holocaust as something which happened to the Jews, as an event in Jewish history. A second way is to regard the Holocaust as representing loathsome aspects of social life which the progress of modernity will increasingly overcome. Neither of these views stand up to scrutiny, according to the author.

评分 评分大屠杀作为近代历史中最为深刻的一次集体记忆,惊动着所有人的同情心与羞耻心。而随着时间的流动,大屠杀记忆的深刻性正不断减弱,另一方面,大屠杀逐渐成为德国人与犹太人的独特历史,渐渐远离我们的当下生活。正是由于遗忘敌不过时间的洗刷,而大屠杀也渐渐被理解为历史的一...
评分若说大屠杀的造成是由于理性制度的衍生物而来,譬如与受害者的隔离、技术化、官僚组织运作等等,那么是否也可以说,如果我们试图通过同样这般冷漠的理性制度来给予众人幸福,其实也是一种徒劳与妄想?进而言之,不论是怎样的制度,奴隶的、君主的、民主的,或者社会主义的,只...

Q:When one finds himself in a society wherein almost every condition that gave rise to the Holocaust could find its modern parallel, how should he feel and act? Is it merely historical contingency that prevents him from becoming complicit in the monstrosity that could materialize almost independent of his (and indeed, his fellow compatriots') will?
