Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A searing account of the French Catholic Church's complicity in the Holocaust, revealing how the nation's most influential bishops shaped the course of Nazi persecution through closed-door negotiations and hollow promises. When German occupiers rolled into Paris in June 1940, they arrived wary of the French Catholic Church. In a country where more than 80 percent of citizens were Catholic, bishops held enormous moral sway. During the 1930s, many used their positions to forcefully condemn the rise of Nazism. But as the persecution of Jews escalated during the Occupation, every bishop in France maintained a deafening silence. In fact, the Church stood publicly alongside Marshal Petain's collaborationist Vichy regime. Even those bishops who famously broke silence to protest the deportation of Jews in 1942-a moment long remembered as one of moral awakening-quickly retreated, discouraging further defiance. The French Church's public silence during the Holocaust is no secret. But as Aliza Luft shows, private interactions between bishops, French Jewish leaders, and Vichy officials were just as consequential. Turning to letters, diaries, and records of private conversations, Luft traces the moral dilemmas and calculated choices that shaped these hidden negotiations. As Jewish leaders turned to the Church for information and protection, bishops repeatedly assured them of the Church's sympathy and support. These guarantees from the nation's highest moral authorities, combined with the false promises of Vichy officials, encouraged French Jews to place their faith in relationships and republican ideals that proved tragically hollow. Drawing on years of archival research, Sacred Betrayal is a harrowing account of how genocide unfolds day by day-not only through spectacular violence, but also through misleading assurances, quiet capitulations, and broken promises. It is well known that the French Catholic Church, which opposed Hitler before 1940, silenced itself during the German Occupation. But Aliza Luft shows that the Church was more than silent: it was complicit. Behind closed doors, bishops repeatedly assured Jewish leaders of the Churchs supportonly to betray their trust amid the Nazi threat.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This handbook articulates how sociology can re-engage its roots as the scientific study of human moral systems, actions, and interpretation. This second volume builds on the successful original volume published in 2010, which contributed to the initiation of a new section of the American Sociological Association (ASA), thus growing the field. This volume takes sociology back to its roots over a century ago, when morality was a central topic of work and governance. It engages scholars from across subfields in sociology, representing each section of the ASA, who each contribute a chapter on how their subfield connects to research on morality.This reference work appeals to broader readership than was envisaged for the first volume, as the relationship between sociology as a discipline and its origins in questions of morality is further renewed. The volume editors focus on three areas: the current state of the sociology of morality across a range of sociologicalsubfields; taking a new look at some of the issues discussed in the first handbook, which are now relevant in sometimes completely new contexts; and reflecting on where the sociology of morality should go next.This is a must-read reference for students and scholars interested in topics of morality, ethics, altruism, religion, and spirituality from across the social science.…
