| description | The issue of Holocaust tourism might be a quite sensitive, but nevertheless
very important topic in the domain of the Holocaust remembrance. As tourism
is often associated with leisure activities, it is quite challenging to put
tourism into darker contexts of history and death. Also, different people
coming to the Holocaust-related places with different motives make the issue
of designing educational tours even more complex. This paper will try to
expose questions related to dark tourism, Holocaust tourism, auratic
memorial places, and to discuss ethical approaches to the Holocaust memory
in the beginning of the 21st century. The text argues for the tourist
experience as a memorable and educational tool with an active
transformational potential, which will turn the visitor into a witness who
further contributes to survival of the legacy of the Holocaust in the
future. |
