The March of the Living: A Follow-Up Study of Its Long Range Impact and Effects
New York: William B. Helmreich, ca. 1992. First edition. Spiral Bound. 4to. 47pp. Spiral-bound plastic covers. Fascinating study by Professor William B. Helmreich, Ph.D., Professor and Chairman, Departments of Sociology and Judaic Studies at CUNY Graduate Center & City College of New York. "The March of the Living has been in operation since 1988. During this period thousands of students from over forty countries, including about 2,500 from North America, have traveled to Poland to participate in the March of the Living and from there to Israel. The March, which takes place every two years---1988, 1990, and 1992---has grown in popularity, with a record 6,000 participants expected in 1994. Until now, no in-depth effort had been made to discover what the long-term impact of the experience was on past participants. What aspects of the program are most effective? What types of participants benefit most from the experience? What are those benefits? Are those who go sensitized to the suffering of other groups? These are just a few of the many questions and issues explored in this study?" Age toning and scuffing to front cover, otherwise in near fine condition. Scarce. vg. Item #26063
