With the end of World War II in Europe in May 1945, civilians and former combatants in formerly Nazi-occupied countries in Western, Central, and Eastern Europe began a long process of taking stock and rebuilding in the wake of what had been the most destructive war in human history. In the Jewish world, over two-thirds of prewar European Jewish communities had been wiped out, and in many instances there was no home or surviving family to return to, or with the division between Soviet-dominated communist rule and the West, survivors had no interest in living under Stalinism and in the bloodlands that had claimed their families and communities. This course will not focus on the Holocaust per se, but rather its aftermath, as the surviving remnant, scattered all over the Middle East, Asia (Shanghai, specially), Europe, and North and South America began to rebuild, and the legacy that this generation bequeathed to the Jewish community over the last 80 years. This includes in the USA, Canada, UK, and Western Europe, and also Poland, Argentina, Australia, and Israel.
