Fear and deference in Holocaust education. The pitfalls of “engagement teaching” according to a report by the British Historical Association This article questions the effectiveness of “engagement teaching” when dealing with controversial subjects by exploring the role of fear in contemporary education about the Holocaust in the United Kingdom. It begins by assessing a governmental report about education and a series of related press reports and chain emails, whose assumption that secondary school teachers are afraid of teaching controversial subjects triggered an international scandal about Holocaust education in the UK in April 2007. The author argues that three forms of respectful fear or deference are undermined in Holocaust teaching: epistemological; political; and intergenerational . The article further demonstrates that the object of fear expressed by journalists and the public was not the Holocaust itself, but the reversal of deferential relations between teachers and pupils in the school classroom and the supposition that we may not learn from history. Whereas history education is held up by policy-makers as a safeguard of social stability and of the transmission of values, the application of “engagement teaching” to controversial subjects may in fact undermine the authority of historical education and the enlightenment principles on which it is founded.

L’enseignement de l’histoire et les mémoires douloureuses du XXe siècle. Enquête sur les représentations enseignantes This article discusses the teaching of sensitive topics related to the memory and history of the 20th century, mainly the issues of the extermination of Jews and the wars of national liberation. The survey, conducted between 2000 and 2003 at the Academie de Versailles, highlights the specific difficulties in this teaching from primary school to secondary school, in different disciplines ‒ literature, history and philosophy. The report also leads to an analysis of the representations that are formed on these subjects, both by students and teachers. (By the author - Translation)
Quand les mémoires déstabilisent l’école. Mémoire de la Shoah et enseignement This work is based primarily on the subject of the Holocaust, but it attempts to define cross-cutting issues in the category of teaching “sensitive” subjects, assuming we can build a common paradigm. To do this, it brings together the perspectives of historians, philosophers, teachers and participating witnesses, inviting us to return to the fundamental questions underlying the act of transmission. Each contribution brings us to reflect on what it is we are trying to transmit, and suggests a systematic exploration of the difficulties inherent in these transmissions: the magnitude and complexity of the historical problem, the extreme moral and political exigencies, the intricate intermingling of memory, the historian’s work, and civic commitment. What to do with negative commemorations? We cannot forget, repent, deny or trivialize. We can only question our modern societies and their ambivalence. (By the author - Translation)
Analysing the dominant discourses on the Holocaust in grade 9 South African history textbooks The Holocaust has become a focal point in many History classrooms in recent years as a direct result of linking the teaching of the Holocaust with Human Rights Education. Whilst there may be many studies on the Holocaust as a historical event, this study has analysed how the Holocaust has been embedded as a narrative in the Grade 9 GET South African History textbooks and which dominant discourses emerge from this. This research is phenomenological in nature and was situated within an interpretivist paradigm. I employed Narrative Inquiry and Fairclough's three dimensions of discourse as the analysis methodologies. The analysis was completed through an instrument in which the various aspects that aid in the construction of a narrative were interrogated. The study concluded that the Holocaust has a deeply-rooted link to education and the History curriculum in South Africa, as there has been a shift in ideological thinking emanating from western consciousness and finding a place in African consciousness due to the former's prevalence globally. The focus of the narrative of the Holocaust ‒as seen in the four selected Grade 9 GET History textbooks which constituted the sample for this study ‒ has shifted from a purely historical perspective to a perspective which is more social in nature.
