 After the
Holocaust : Rebuilding Jewish Lives in Postwar Germany - Michael Brenner, Barbara Harshav (Translator) / Hardcover / Published 1997
- This landmark book is the first comprehensive account of the
lives of the Jews who remained in Germany immediately following the war. Gathering
never-before-published eyewitness accounts from Holocaust survivors, Michael Brenner
presents a remarkable history of this period. Brenner brings to life the psychological,
spiritual, and material obstacles they surmounted as they rebuilt their lives in Germany.
At the heart of his narrative is a series of fifteen interviews Brenner conducted with
some of the most important witnesses who played an active role in the reconstruction -
including presidents of Jewish communities, rabbis, and journalists.

in Germany, 1945-1993 : The Building of a Minority
- Michael Cohn / Hardcover / Published 1994
Most Jews who now live in Germany have lived elsewhere. They
are neither the remnant of those who survived the Holocaust nor those who are in transit
to Israel or the United States. They are a disparate but vibrant and growing community of
over 80,000 people. Forty thousand of them are members of official Jewish communities in
today's Germany. Because of the Nazi past, this proportionately small number of
individuals plays an out-of-scale role in German politics and world consciousness. As a
study in the formation of minority communities within European national matrices, Cohn's
work has interest for sociologists, political scientists, and anthropologists as well. It
is the only published work on the Jewish community in Germany today
