”Photography and the Holocaust: Then and Now” Editor: Robert Hirsch

A journal theme that examines over a number of essays photography’s changing role in documenting, interpreting, and understanding the Holocaust (Shoah). It assesses how photographs are an element in a larger systemic universe, deriving from multiple personal and community economic/political/psychological/social and technical perspectives, and how these viewpoints affect a photograph’s construction and how this directs its interpretation and circulation.
