The Holocaust’s conceptual unity was constructed after the events themselves

Evidence

Jay (1992:103) suggests that the Holocaust is “a post facto conceptual entity not in use at the time”; its power as a set of historical events is thus inseparable from discourses about it. James Young (1993: viii) argues that the construction of the Holocaust in memory “varies from land to land, political regime to regime and is mediated by the memorials and museums.” — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 294
