Never Again! Yet Again!
In this remarkable introduction, Stephen D Smith, the new Executive Director of the USC Shoah Foundation Institute for Visual History and Education, describes the inspiring journey he and his family took in creating the first Holocaust centre in Britain. This story was written in response to many questions. It replies with a powerful challenge to all who think that 'never again' is really worth the struggle. The Australian Centre for Jewish Civilisation hosts this lecture by Stephen Smith, the new director of the Shoah Foundation Institute at the University of Southern California and co-founder of the Aegis Trust. In his powerful address, Smith discusses the past century of crimes against humanity and genocide: the links between them, and the ways to understand them in order to avoid them in the future.
The Trajectory of Holocaust Memory
The Trajectory of Holocaust Memory: The Crisis of Testimony in Theory and Practice re-considers survivor testimony, moving from a subject-object reading of the past to a subject-subject encounter in the present. It explores how testimony evolves in relationship to the life of eyewitnesses across time. This book breaks new ground based on three principles. The first draws on Martin Buber’s “I-Thou” concept, transforming the object of history into an encounter between subjects. The second employs the Jungian concept of identity, whereby the individual (internal identity) and the persona (external identity) reframe testimony as an extension of the individual. They are a living subject, ra...

How was it Humanly Possible?
An educational guide for high school or college students, as well as for the general reader. Dwells, in particular, on the views of the perpetrators - their actions, thoughts, worldviews, and motivations. Discusses, also, the Jewish victims and relates the activities of four rescuers of Jews. Focusing on Germans, deals with prejudice, propaganda, and youth culture; mass murder; deportation; transports as seen by a perpetrator and a victim; high officials in the extermination camp system (Höss, Stangl, and Gerstein); and bystanders and rescuers. The approach is interdisciplinary - involving documents, testimonies, photographs, and works of literature and art.

Law, Animals and Toxicity Testing
Drawing on our growing knowledge of animal cognition, this book provides a critical analysis of the use of animals in the legal regime and the practice of toxicity testing. Although animal abuse has become a major issue, animal testing remains largely in the shadows, even though it involves substantial cruelty. Toxicity testing, in particular, imposes considerable pain, suffering and ultimately death on those laboratory animals – often mice – chosen to demonstrate the characteristics of chemicals and their commercial potential. This book documents and critically analyzes the animal protection laws of the European Union, the United States and Canada. It not only examines the tests themsel...
