This conference explores the changing patterns of Jewish families and Jewish childhood in Europe during and after the Holocaust, and the impact of the war on Jewish women, men, and children. It will bring together diverse analytical approaches and explore differences and similarities among various East and West European cases. The overall goal of the conference is to explore how the field of the Holocaust and East European Jewish history has changed as a result of new research in the areas of families, women and children, and how it might develop in the future.
