The HVC is co-organising the conference, 'Colonial Paradigms of Violence: Comparative Analysis of the Holocaust, Genocide and Mass Killing', together with the Center for Holocaust Studies, Leibniz Institute for Contemporary History (IfZ) to be held on 11-13 November 2020. This conference will address the recent contributions and challenges of considering the Holocaust from a colonial perspective. Such an approach includes considering European colonialism from a genocide perspective, as well as examining the practices of violence from European colonialism and how these may have fed back into Europe throughout World War II.
