Meticulous research, detailed analysis, lucid writing, captivating narration—those descriptions characterize Larissa Allwork’s impressive study of recent international initiatives to preserve memory of the Holocaust, expand education about that disaster, and promote awareness of the Shoah’s implications for the world’s future. Deftly evaluating how those efforts have tried to navigate what she calls “the ebb and flow of the space, place, and time of memory,” Allwork herself preserves memory of important moments in post-Holocaust history, reminding her readers not only that much has been accomplished but also that much remains to be done if Holocaust remembrance is to continue responsibly and effectively.
