ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

The idea for this book came out of a conversation between the co-editors in 2014. At the time, we both agreed on the importance of exploring petitions as tools of contestation and enlisting a range of scholars with expertise in different European countries and languages. As one of many next steps, we organized a panel at the 2015 annual meeting of the Association for Jewish Studies in Boston to test this volumes approach. Marion A. Kaplan expertly chaired this panel and offered valuable advice. With the title Rethinking Jewish Petitions during the Holocaust: Toward Integrated Histories of Collective and Individual Acts of Contestation, our panel prompted a lively discussion and raised new questions. We were pleased and grateful to the scholarssome long-time colleagues and friends, others new collaboratorswho responded to our subsequent call for essays for this volume.

Over the years, one or both of the editors discussed the topic of Jewish petitioning with many colleagues in North America, Europe, and Israel, who offered advice and constructive criticism. We are particularly grateful to Jacob Borut, Christopher R. Browning, Richard Cohen, Dan Diner, Havi Dreifuss, Luca Fenoglio, Shmuel Feiner, Gaby Finder, Amos Goldberg, Philipp Graf, Atina Grossmann, Konrad Kwiet, Jrgen Matthus, Beate Meyer, Dan Michman, Guy Miron, Dalia Ofer, Eliot Nidam-Orvieto, Iael Nidam-Orvieto, Rene Poznanski, the late Reinhard Rrup, Alan Steinweis, Stefanie Schler-Springorum, Bill Van Norman, Michael Wildt, and Moshe Zimmermann.

Thomas Pegelow Kaplan is indebted to the International Institute for Holocaust Research, Yad Vashem; the Memorial Foundation for Jewish Culture, New York City; and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Bonn, for granting him research fellowships for his work on Jewish petitioning practices. He also wishes to thank the organizers and participants of the research colloquium on the History of National Socialism at the Humboldt University of Berlin, the research colloquium at the Center for Research on Anti-Semitism at the Technical University of Berlin, the lunch talk at the Leibniz Institute for Jewish History and CultureSimon-Dubnow, Leipzig, and the annual lecture of The John Najmann Chair of Holocaust Studies at the International Institute for Holocaust Research, Yad Vashem, for excellent opportunities to discuss approaches and arguments used in this volume.
