Whose suffering counts?

Competing memories and conflicts of representation in memorial site work on Nazi crimes

Panel discussion with Dr. Manuela Bauche, Prof. Dr. Axel Drecoll, Prof. Dr. Detlef Garbe and Liane Schäfer

Moderation: Cornelia Siebeck

Memorial work on Nazi crimes has always had to deal with competing memories and conflicts of representation: Which stories of persecution become visible in the design on site, which remain marginalized or invisible? The following questions will be discussed in the panel discussion: Is there a "hierarchy of victims", what space is given to perpetrators? What is the relationship between Nazi crimes and other historical complexes of injustice? Where do such conflicts of remembrance and representation actually come from, what are the driving forces here, what role do they play in concrete work on the ground - and can they ever be "resolved" to everyone's satisfaction?Translated with DeepL
