Product Description

Review
From the hardback review: ‘… Marcuse has definitely identified something both strangely disturbing and of great symbolic importance.’ Times Literary Supplement

From the hardback review: ‘Clearly and sensitively written, the book is accessible to a broad audience. It belongs in every library.’ Choice

From the hardback review: '… Marcuse extends his story well into the present … Marcuse's book comprehensively documents the tug-of-war between the interests of local and regional authorities … ' German Historical Institute London

Product Description
Auschwitz, Belsen, Dachau. These names still evoke the horrors of Nazi Germany around the world. This book takes one of these sites, Dachau, and traces its history from the beginning of the twentieth century, through its twelve years as Nazi Germany’s premier concentration camp, to the camp’s postwar uses as prison, residential neighborhood, and, finally, museum and memorial site. With superbly chosen examples and an eye for telling detail, Legacies of Dachau documents how Nazi perpetrators were quietly rehabilitated to become powerful elites, while survivors of the concentration camps were once again marginalized, criminalized and silenced. Combining meticulous archival research with an encyclopedic knowledge of the extensive literatures on Germany, the Holocaust, and historical memory, Marcuse unravels the intriguing relationship between historical events, individual memory, and political culture, to offer a unified interpretation of their interaction from the Nazi era to the twenty-first century.
