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.

诺齐克在《苏格拉底的困惑》中提到纽康姆悖论,结论是要两个箱子都拿,因为他提出,要么是“逆向因果”,你后来的决定,决定了当初欧米伽是否往第二个箱子里放了百万美元。这个逻辑是,你决定拿第二个箱子,那么就放了钱;你两个都拿,就没放。如果是这个逻辑,那么你就只能选...

評分 評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...
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?
