To mark the centenary of Gustav Mahler’s death, one thematic focus of the Yearbook deals with the life, work and legacy of this musician of Jewish descent in the context of culture and social politics. Another thematic focus here is early research on the Holocaust, an area of inquiry whose image in recent years has fundamentally changed. These focal areas are expanded by papers dealing with questions of political history, legal history, cultural restitution and the critique of post-modern philosophy.

Todestag von Gustav Mahler werden in einem Schwerpunkt des Jahrbuchs Leben, Werk und Nachleben des Musikers judischer Herkunft im Kontext kultureller und gesellschaftspolitischer Konstellationen beleuchtet. Einen weiteren Schwerpunkt bildet die fruhe Holocaustforschung, deren Bild sich in den letzten Jahren grundlegend gewandelt hat. Diese Themenfelder werden erweitert durch Beitrage zu Fragen der politischen sowie der Rechtsgeschichte, der Kulturrestitution und der Kritik der postmodernen Philosophie. Die wiederkehrenden Rubriken enthalten Beitrage zu Gunther Anders, Schmuel Josef Agnon und Lea Goldberg sowie der Sprachenfrage bei Simon Dubnow und der Beteiligung judischer Anarchisten an der Bayerischen Raterepublik von 1919.
