Judith M. Hughes, Ph.D. has published The Holocaust and the Revival of Psychological History (Cambridge University Press, 2014). In it she asks: Why did men--and women--in one of the best educated countries in the western world set out to get rid of Jews? Questions of this sort have once again come to the fore in the study of the Holocaust. In The Holocaust and the Revival of Psychological History, Hughes focuses on how historians' efforts to grapple anew with matters of actors' meaning, intentions, and purposes have prompted a return to psychoanalytically-informed ways of thinking.
