LEFT OUT: At least since the 1960s Germany has attempted to deal with its Nazi past: Holocaust studies are compulsory in high schools; there is an abundance of films, articles and books on anti-Semitism and the Holocaust; and former concentrations camps have become memorials and museums to which scores of German students go on field trips.
But in spite of all the education and commemoration, in a 2005 poll half of German youth under 24 couldn't define what the Holocaust was. Many younger Germans don't want to carry guilt about what their parents or grandparents did over a half century ago. And neo-Nazism and anti-Semitism is on the rise, especially in the former East Germany. In addition, out of sympathy with Palestinians and other beleaguered Arabs, many Muslim youth in Germany deny the reality of the Holocaust and are virulently anti-Semitic. The problem with Holocaust studies in Germany, according to Stacy Perman, is that they deal dispassionately with past realities and don't touch recent ones (Utne Reader, September-October).
