520 _aThe memory of the Holocaust, absolutely central to Germany’s memorial culture, remains a strong political imperative in the Federal Republic, whose democratic identity has been established in total opposition to Nazism. Following the denial of Nazi crimes in the post-war period, since the 1970s the past has begun to rear its head, leading to a political representation of Judaism as a symbol of the country’s republican culture. And yet the many expressions of memorial culture in Germany (museums, monuments, etc.) have often been the subject of controversy, insofar as their public use also reflects the difficulty of prescribing collective imagery to irremediably personal traumatic memories. Despite the revival of German-Jewish communities since the country’s reunification, these do not always feel fully represented by official memorial culture and reject the excessive memorialisation.
