Biography
Joshua Cohen is Honorary Visiting Fellow at the Stanley Burton Centre for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at the University of Leicester, UK.
‘This timely and important new study captures the dynamics of British antifascism and the importance of the memory of the Holocaust. Lucid, thoughtful and humane, it is a highly welcome addition that adds valuable new insights into growing academic study of antifascism and its activists.’
Dr Paul Jackson FRHS FHEA, Professor in the History of Radicalism and Extremism at the University of Northampton, UK
'British Antifascism and the Holocaust is among the best recent books on antifascism...It is fair to say this is a stellar debut for an emerging scholar, one who has breathed incredible life into a well-considered topic.'
