Zander, Ulf LU orcid (2003) p.255-292
Abstract
The television series Holocaust: The Story of the Family Weiss (1978) had an enormous impact in USA and Western Europe. As a result of the broadcasting, a growing interest for the Holocaust became visible and caused a number of debates. In this article, I discuss the debates in USA, West Germany, Denmark and Sweden.
