An Evening About Flight, Borders, and the Great Question of Responsibility
This online event of the vhs Fürth focuses on a topic that connects historical depth with contemporary relevance: Susanne Heim talks about The Isolation of the World: When Jews Faced Closed Borders. 1933–1945. The lecture examines the international refugee policy during the Nazi era, the failed Évian Conference of 1938, and the life-threatening paths of the persecuted into emigration.

History as a Literarily Condensed Diagnosis of the Times
Susanne Heim combines scientific precision with a clear, narrative perspective. As a historian and political scientist with many years of research on the persecution and murder of European Jews, she represents expertise that merges sources, context, and political dimensions. Her book is published by C.H.Beck and is presented there as a fundamental representation of Jewish emigration during the Nazi era.

The Atmosphere of a Digital Reading
Even online, this evening unfolds the density of a literary experience: concentrated, reflective, and supported by the unique author encounter in the digital space. The event is part of vhs.wissen live and ends with a subsequent discussion that broadens the view on historical responsibility and international politics.

Why This Topic Resonates Today
The isolation of states, the struggle for acceptance, the powerlessness of international institutions, and the failure of humanitarian politics make the lecture more than just a historical retrospective. It opens a cultural-historical discourse on flight, exile, memory, and the question of how societies respond to persecution. Therein lies the literary and educational power of this evening.
