19901st edition, original wrappers, 4to, 28 cm. [8] pages. Includes two articles by Rosenthal: 45 years after the liberation of Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen and The unvanquished sector of the Warsaw Ghetto: its school system. He talks about the Jewish Demands After the Holocaust, saying that [t]he Jewish approach was different. The Jews did not confine their demands merely to emigration; they connected them with the complex questions of Jewish national homelessness. Their demand was not limited to socio-economic assistance; they wanted a deeper look into the causes which had decimated the Jewish people to a degree and in a manner never before experienced by any other people in the world. In short, they did not present the international community with another refugee problem, or a Jewish Displaced Persons problem, but rather with the problem of the security of the entire Jewish people as revealed by the Holocaust. They sought a national-historical meaning for the Jewish fate during this period- and they found it in the struggle for the establishment of the State of Israel.
