Deconstructing The Destruction of Gaza with Prof Omer Bartov | The Probe Interviews

In conversation with The Probe, Professor Omer Bartov deconstructs the recent ceasefire in Gaza, the current situation of the war between Israel and neighbouring belligerents, the developments that took place post-October 7th 2023 and possible and probable outcomes that can come out of the conflict in Gaza. Professor Omer Bartov is the Samuel Pisar Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University. Born in Israel and educated at Tel Aviv University and St. Antony's College, Oxford, Omer Bartov's early research concerned the Nazi indoctrination of the Wehrmacht and the crimes it committed in World War II, analyzed in his books, The Eastern Front, 1941-1945 (1985), and Hitler's Army (1991). He then turned to the links between total war and genocide, discussed in his books Murder in Our Midst (1996), Mirrors of Destruction (2000), and Germany's War and the Holocaust (2003). Bartov's interest in representation also led to his study, The "Jew" in Cinema (2005), which examines the recycling of antisemitic stereotypes in film. His more recent work has focused on interethnic relations in the borderlands of Eastern Europe. His book Erased: Vanishing Traces of Jewish Galicia in Present-Day Ukraine (2007), investigates the politics of memory in West Ukraine, while Anatomy of a Genocide: The Life and Death of a Town Called Buczacz (2018), is a microhistory of ethnic coexistence and violence.
