Abstract
ABSTRACT This article deals with the debate over Dirk Moses' essay “The German Catechism,” which sparked controversy after its publication in May 2021. In his piece, Moses argues that the Holocaust should be examined in unison with the genocides perpetrated during colonialism. This article criticizes Moses' interpretation that questions the singularity of the Holocaust, stressing instead that the Shoah is fundamentally different from other historical crimes. It reveals the inherent flaws in Moses' essay, while pointing to the potentially dangerous influence of the postcolonial thought advocated by Moses on anti-Israel sentiment and the rise of antisemitism.
本文探讨了德克·摩西(Dirk Moses)的论文《德国教理问答》(the German Catechism)在2021年5月发表后引发的争议。在他的文章中，摩西认为，应该将大屠杀与殖民主义期间犯下的种族灭绝结合起来进行审查。这篇文章批评了摩西质疑大屠杀的独特性的解释，强调大屠杀与其他历史罪行有着根本的不同。它揭示了摩西文章的内在缺陷，同时指出了摩西所倡导的后殖民思想对反以色列情绪和反犹主义兴起的潜在危险影响。
