Rosenbaum Chapter 16

Wulf Kansteiner breaks down the history of the Holocaust in Chapter 16. After the end of World War II, it talks about the different phases of the Holocaust. the first group of scholars had difficulty staying separated from Third Reich thought and persuasion, meaning that they stayed away from mentioning the "Final Solution" in their works. The next wave of scholars looked the definition of Nazism, and what the objective was. It was the third wave that looked into the role of Hitler, and in my opinion, that is thew first group to put the event in its proper place.  the final group showed a more traditional history chain of the Holocaust.

My question:

What are the reasons to study such an act, other than to remember who caused it, and who they affected during this or any similar event?
