About this trip

Students of Psychology and Sociology can study how this once thriving Jewish community of the 19th Century tragically fell in to decline with Nazi occupation, until their well-documented demise. Krakow is an ideal location to analyse the persecution that took place study the many questions that the Holocaust raises in terms of conformity, obedience, ethics, morality, and persecution.
