In view of the historical significance and the human and moral dimension of the injustice committed, it is a continuing obligation, especially towards future generations, to present and convey the historical events truthfully, to keep the memory of the suffering of the victims alive, but also to make it clear to what extent the experiences of the Nazi era have become decisive for our present state and social order and what responsibility arises from this for shaping a humane future.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
(From the foundation statutes of 14 November 1991)<\/p>\n
I come as a witness of that time, not as a judge or accuser. I explain to the pupils that they are not responsible for what happened, but they are responsible for ensuring that it does not happen again. I hope that through my contribution, young people will remain sensitive to all developments that jeopardise democracy and human rights. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
(Max Mannheimer, 1920 -2016)<\/p>\n
The Max Mannheimer Study Centre is an extracurricular institution for historical and political education located in the immediate vicinity of the former Dachau concentration camp. It is named after Holocaust survivor Max Mannheimer and is committed to his legacy of remembering the suffering of the victims of Nazi terror and his message of understanding and tolerance.
\nCritical examination and reference to the origins and history of National Socialism, as well as its aftermath and impact up to the present day, are central components of all the educational programmes offered by the centre. These are divided into three formats: <\/p>\n\n
- One-day and multi-day study programmes for young people and multipliers<\/li>\n
- Trans- and international study programmes, youth exchanges and projects<\/li>\n
- Specialist educational and scientific events and publications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The Max Mannheimer Study Centre is located as an educational institution in today’s Dachau as a place of learning and remembrance and is involved in local and regional initiatives as well as in national and international expert groups on memorial site education and the culture of remembrance.<\/p>\n
By whom for whom<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The educational programmes offered by the Max Mannheimer Study Centre are aimed at young people and young adults aged 14 and above from schools and youth work, as well as multipliers in education and remembrance work.
\nAll educational staff at the Max Mannheimer Study Centre continuously communicate with each other about a common educational approach, content objectives and methodological procedures. This communication process reflects current socio-political events as well as the interests and demands of programme participants and the changing conditions of historical-political teaching and learning.
\nWith regard to educational activities, educators agree on the importance of defining current forms of racism, anti-Semitism, right-wing extremism and other misanthropic structures and attitudes, and taking a critical stance on them.
\nThe Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site is an international place of remembrance where diverse cultural, historical and political narratives manifest themselves. International projects and youth encounters are firmly rooted in the founding idea of the Max Mannheimer Study Centre. They enable participants to understand that history and remembrance of National Socialism and the Second World War encompass different historical experiences and interpretations that continue to influence current (conflict) history in Europe and worldwide.
\nDeveloping individual judgement in relation to historical and political issues is an important contribution to social learning for programme participants and promotes an understanding of democratic values and social participation. <\/p>\nContents and goals<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The core and starting point of historical and political learning at the Max Mannheimer Study Centre is the history of events and effects of the Dachau concentration camp as an instrument of terror in the context of Nazi persecution and extermination policies.
\nRemembering the people who were imprisoned in the Dachau concentration camp, their suffering, their self-assertion and resistance is an essential part of the educational work. Individual biographies make the realities of exclusion, persecution and imprisonment visible. Engaging with the victims as self-determined actors promotes empathy and understanding.
\nThe perpetrators and their judicial punishment are part of the history of the place. The way this history has been dealt with since 1945 reflects the controversial social debates surrounding Nazi crimes as well as the experiences of social discrimination and marginalisation of groups of former victims of persecution.
\nIn the participatory educational process, participants develop an individual interest in history based on their own life experiences. A historically informed critical perspective supports the analysis and evaluation of current socio-political events.
\nThe Max Mannheimer Study Centre closely links content-related teaching goals with the applied didactic methods in a group-dynamic learning process. The aim of all courses is to enable participants to better understand and reflect on themselves and their own influences through new perspectives, as well as to appropriately assess different and even contradictory perceptions and narratives and develop their own attitudes towards them. <\/p>\nMethodological principles<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
Das Max Mannheimer Studienzentrum schafft als au\u00dferschulische Bildungseinrichtung eine Lernumgebung, in der die Teilnehmenden frei von Leistungskriterien mit den p\u00e4dagogischen Fachkr\u00e4ften zusammenarbeiten. Es entstehen offene Kommunikationsr\u00e4ume, in denen mittels vielf\u00e4ltiger Methoden und Materialien die F\u00e4higkeit zur Entwicklung eigener Fragen an die Geschichte vermittelt wird.
\nKleine Arbeitsgruppen er\u00f6ffnen Lern- und Gespr\u00e4chshorizonte f\u00fcr den konstruktiven Austausch und die Diskussion. Diversit\u00e4t in der Gruppe ist eine positive und produktive Selbstverst\u00e4ndlichkeit. Die Teilnehmerden k\u00f6nnen in allen Programmen ihre pers\u00f6nlichen Interessen einbringen.
\nDas ausf\u00fchrliche Kennenlernen und selbst\u00e4ndige Entdecken der KZ-Gedenkst\u00e4tte Dachau ist ein zentrales Element der Programmgestaltung. Dazu werden Methoden des forschenden Lernens angewandt. Multiperspektivische Zug\u00e4nge zum historischen und zum gegenw\u00e4rtigen Ort, die Zeugnisse von Opfern und \u00dcberlebenden sowie Quellen zu den historischen Orten unterst\u00fctzen die Teilnehmenden dabei, zu eigenen Deutungen der Vergangenheit zu gelangen und Bez\u00fcge zur Gegenwart herzustellen.
\nF\u00fcr die p\u00e4dagogische Arbeit des Max Mannheimer Studienzentrums ist die Bildung des Individuums in einem Raum st\u00e4ndiger Interaktion und Partizipation besonders wichtig. Die Intensit\u00e4t der Bildungsprogramme kann langfristige Lernprozesse ansto\u00dfen. Dadurch entstehen Fragestellungen, die \u00fcber den Ortsbezug und die historische Dimension hinaus bis in die Gegenwart reichen. Das Max Mannheimer Studienzentrum ist dabei stets offen f\u00fcr neue Methoden und Konzepte, arbeitet innovativ und experimentell. <\/p>\nDachau, Herbst 2016<\/em>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ background_position=”top_left” custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_sidebar area=”et_pb_widget_area_3″ show_border=”on” admin_label=”Seitenleiste – Navigation Leitbilder Sprachversionen” _builder_version=”4.16″ remove_border=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_sidebar][et_pb_cta title=”Mission statement of the Max Mannheimer Study Centre” button_url=”https:\/\/mmsz-dachau.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Leitbild-MMSZ.pdf” url_new_window=”on” button_text=”PDF herunterladen” _builder_version=”4.16″ border_style=”solid” button_letter_spacing_hover=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” button_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_text_size__hover=”null” button_one_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_text_size__hover=”null” button_two_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_text_size__hover=”null” button_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_text_color__hover=”null” button_one_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_text_color__hover=”null” button_two_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_text_color__hover=”null” button_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_width__hover=”null” button_one_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_width__hover=”null” button_two_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_width__hover=”null” button_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_color__hover=”null” button_one_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_color__hover=”null” button_two_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_color__hover=”null” button_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_radius__hover=”null” button_one_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_radius__hover=”null” button_two_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_radius__hover=”null” button_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”on” button_letter_spacing__hover=”0″ button_one_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_letter_spacing__hover=”null” button_two_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_letter_spacing__hover=”null” button_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_bg_color__hover=”null” button_one_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_bg_color__hover=”null” button_two_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_bg_color__hover=”null”][\/et_pb_cta][et_pb_sidebar area=”sidebar-1″ show_border=”on” _builder_version=”4.16″ remove_border=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_sidebar][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
