EXHIBITING ATROCITY Memorial Museums and the Politics of Past Violence Amy Sodaro Exhibiting Atrocity documents the emergence of the memorial museum as a new cultural form of commemoration.

The ideas and information presented in this exciting volume greatly expand our knowledge of a highly important, yet understudied, subject.” —Tony Michels, University of Wisconsin 288 pp • 22 photographs • 978-0-8135-5308-5 Paper • $29.95S $20.97 The Jewish Encounter with American Capitalism Edited by Rebecca Kobrin Chosen Capital THE NEW JEW IN FILM Exploring Jewishness and Judaism in Contemporary Cinema Nathan Abrams “Abrams adds fresh perspectives on emerging global film depictions of Jews in an investigation of how old, fixed catego- ries of stereotypes have been subverted since 1990. Abrams shows how cinema has become the vehicle for normalizing Jews, generally stereotyped and mocked, but now framed in ordinary ways. Highly recommended.” —Choice 272 pp • 23 photographs • 978-0-8135-5341-2 Paper • $29.95S $20.97 THE INTERNATIONAL JEWISH LABOR BUND AFTER 1945 Toward a Global History David Slucki “The International Jewish Labor Bund after 1945 offers intriguing insights about how a movement so deeply rooted in the Yiddish- speaking working masses of Eastern Europe struggled to find a new role and fashion a new identity in the aftermath of the Holocaust.” —Israel Journal of Foreign Affairs 284 pp • 10 photographs • 978-0-8135-5168-5 Cloth • $53.95S $37.76 THE INTERNATIONAL JEWISH LABOR BUND AFTER 1945 TOWARD A GLOBAL HISTORY DAVID SLUCKI HOLOCAUST ICONS Symbolizing the Shoah in History and Memory Oren B. Stier Stier traces the lives and afterlives of certain remnants of the Holocaust and their ongoing impact. He shows how and why four icons—an object, a phrase, a person, and a number—have come to stand in for the Holocaust: where they came from and how they have been used and reproduced; how they are presently at risk from a variety of threats such as commodification; and what the future holds for the memory of the Shoah. 224 pp • 41 photographs • 978-0-8135-7402-8 Paper • $29.95S $20.97 JEWISH STUDIES BOOKS from RUTGERS UNIVERSITY PRESS 30% OFF ON ALL JEWISH STUDIES BOOKS USE DISCOUNT CODE 02BJEW17 FREE SHIPPING ON ONLINE ORDERS RUTGERS, THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW JERSEY 106 SOMERSET STREET 3RD FLOOR NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ 08901 RUTGERSUNIVERSITYPRESS.ORG USE CODE 02BJEW17 TO RECEIVE 30% OFF ON YOUR ORDER ORDER ONLINE AT: RUTGERSUNIVERSITYPRESS.ORG OR CALL 1-800-848-6224 FREE SHIPPING ON ALL ONLINE ORDERS!

Auschwitz. His surprisingly dystopian vision,
filled with familiar characters in unfamiliar
and intriguing roles, is sure to challenge—
and, quite possibly, to infuriate.”
