Our Living Legacy

Contains excerpts from papers delivered at the international conference "The Legacy of Holocaust Survivors - the Moral and Ethical Implications for Humanity", held by Yad Vashem's International School for Holocaust Studies, in association with the Center of Organizations of Holocaust Survivors in Israel, in Jerusalem in April 2002. The excerpts are arranged in four groups: Legacy, Faith, Memory, and Antisemitism. The latter category includes one six-page extract in which Per Ahlmark stresses that non-Jews, like himself, also have a duty to resist antisemitism and that dangerous antisemites want a world without a Jewish state. The other participants were Aharon Appelfeld, Walter Zwi Bacharach, Aharon Barak, Emil Fackenheim, Israel Gutman, Moshe Halbertal, Imre Kertesz, Beate and Serge Klarsfeld, Israel Meir Lau, Limor Livnat, Michael McGarry, Michael Melchior, Sallai Meridor, Samuel Pisar, Moshe Sanbar, Avner Shalev, Israel Singer, Simone Veil, and Elie Wiesel.
