The article analyzes the evolution of historiography on Jewish leadership during the Holocaust.

The article points to some new scholarship, which differentiates between “leadership” and “headship”, detects the origins of the Judenrat concept and its gradual crystallization, shows the different ways of its application, and also limits its importance regarding the Final Solution.
