Beschreibung
Post-Holocaust Religious Education focuses on experiences of second- and
third generation non-Jewish German women, highlighting their dual roles as
both descendants of a perpetrator community and victims of a patriarchal
system. How can they learn to face this perpetrator heritage and integrate
it into their identity as women, as Germans, and as Christians? Drawing
from a review of literature and empirical field studies, Mayer concludes
by offering a relational approach to religious education; an approach
towards a more constructive interaction between Jewish and Christian
communities.
