Find out who has been talking about our publication 'Killing Sites. Research and Remembrance.'

You can download a full version of the publication as a pdf or as an Epub Version.

The European Holocaust Reseach Infrastructure (EHRI) project shared the killing sites publication on their website, commenting that the topic  "is also of great importance to the EHRI project, that in its new phase will focus more on Eastern Europe. Several institutes and researchers that have contributed to the IHRA publication have also been involved in EHRI's work."

The Centre for Historical Research and Documentation on War and Contemporary Society  underlined the fact that during the Holocaust over 2 million Jews were shot, not in camps but in thousands of 'killing sites' spread all over Europe and noted that wiith this new book, IHRA sheds light on this relatively unknown phenomenon. The CEGESOMA also profiled the book in their 2015 news bulletin.

IHRA was also pleased that the International Association of Genocide Scholars shared news of the book release with their membership and that the Wiener Library in London added the publication to its list of online learning resources.

Since the publication went online, it has been been downloaded over 250 times.

In August 2015, work began on the second book in IHRA’s publication series. The publication is entitled ‘Bystanders, Rescuers or Perpetrators? The Neutral Countries and the Shoah’ and is based on the conference papers of the international conference which was held in November 2014. The conference was originally funded through IHRA's Grant Programme and received the ‘Yehuda-Bauer Grant’ because of its particular emphasis on the multilateral aspect.
