What, exactly, does one mean when idealizing tolerance as a solution to cultural conflict? This book examines a wide range of young adult texts, both fiction and memoir, representing the experiences of young adults during WWII and the Holocaust. Author Rachel Dean-Ruzicka argues for a progressive reading of this literature. Tolerance Discourse and Young Adult Holocaust Literature contests the modern discourse of tolerance, encouraging educators and readers to more deeply engage with difference and identity when studying Holocaust texts.
Rachel Dean-Ruzicka holds a PhD in American Culture Studies from Bowling Green State University. She is Lecturer of Writing and Communication at Georgia Institute of Technology. Her articles have appeared in Children's Literature and Education, ImageText, and Female Rebellion in Young Adult Dystopian Fiction.
