We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "National Policy, Global Memory: The Commemoration of the “Righteous” from Jerusalem to Paris, 1942-2007" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Since 1963, the state of Israel has awarded the title of Righteous among the Nations to individuals who risked their lives sheltering Jews during the Holocaust. This distinction remained solely an Israeli initiative until the late 1990s, when European governments began developing their own national categories, the most prominent of which was the Righteous of France, honoring those who protected Jews during the Vichy regime. In National Policy, Global Memory, Sarah Gensburger uses this dramatic episode to lend a new perspective to debates over memory and nationhood. In particular, she works to combine two often divergent disciplinesmemory studies and political scienceto study memory politics as a form of public policy.

National Policy, Global Memory
BERGHAHN MONOGRAPHS IN FRENCH STUDIES
Editor: Michael Scott Christofferson, Associate Professor and Chair of Department of History, Adelphi University
France has played a central role in the emergence of the modern world. The Great French Revolution of 1789 contributed decisively to political modernity, and the Paris of Baudelaire did the same for culture. Because of its rich intellectual and cultural traditions, republican democracy, imperial past and post-colonial present, twentieth-century experience of decline and renewal, and unique role in world affairs, France and its history remain important today. This series publishes monographs that offer significant methodological and empirical contributions to our understanding of the French experience and its broader role in the making of the modern world.

Because of the great diversity of fieldwork sites, languages, and disciplines mobilized in this research, this book received support from so many sources it would be impossible to name them all. My apologies to all those who have not been mentioned specifically; you have not been forgotten.
I would like to begin by expressing my deep gratitude to all those who agreed to meet with me and to tell their stories. I also thank the members of the French Committee for Yad Vashem. I hope that they understand my approach and will find in this book a new perspective on their practices and their environment. Many thanks also to the team at the Department of the Righteous of Yad Vashem in Jerusalem for welcoming me during the summer of 2003.
Finally, thanks to all the community groups: Hidden Children (France), Aloumim/Living Memory (Jerusalem), French Association in Honor of the Righteous among the Nations (Paris), Association of the French Righteous for Yad Vashem (Marseille), Claims Conference (New York), Chambon Foundation (Los Angeles), Children of the Holocaust (Warsaw), and the Jewish Historical Institute (Warsaw). To this list can be added the various political, administrative, and institutional leaders who met with me and sometimes even gave me access to their archives.
