With a Foreword by Desmond M. Tutu
This volume aims to make a unique and significant contribution to
the proliferating literature on German-Israeli relatedness in the
post-Holocaust era. It is both a record and a testimony to a novel
and vitally important approach to this work, demonstrating the
possibility of dealing with Germans and Israelis in a way that is
immediate, direct, and powerfully evocative. Its power lies in that
it is not work aimed at rapprochement or exoneration. It focuses on
the two groups by using highly skilled and trained professionals -
psychoanalysts and psychotherapists - from both countries. And it
employs a unique methodology: the magnifying lens of Group
Relations working conferences. It is in this sense that it may well
be said that this volume lies at the intersection of a number of
crucial human, social and heuristic developments that have
characterized the twentieth century.
This book shows the unique meaning and importance of the other as
one engages in ones own work of change. The bottom line of these
conferences is a demonstration of how crucial the actual presence
of the other is to desirable changes that may take place in ones
identity. This becomes all the more powerful when this other is not
a »neutral« presence, but the one to whom ones own identity
relates. This cannot be emphasized too strongly. It is one of the
major and most poignant contributions and outcomes of the
conferences and of this book.
