Summary: This study demonstrates that collective memory plays a role in shaping attitudes towards immigrants, particularly refugees and asylum seekers, adding to the understanding of public opinion on immigration. By examining the case of Israel's collective memory of the Holocaust, it explores how different interpretations of historical events like the Holocaust are linked to attitudes towards asylum seekers. The mobilization of collective memory can impact attitudes towards asylum seekers, with particularist and universalist Holocaust 'lessons' having varying effects.
