His research considers other genocides, Jewish history in Europe and exhumations of corpses after mass violence. He also works and looted art in the Holocaust and the unfinished restitution process. Jean-Marc Dreyfus’ current research is three folded. It considers the question of looted art in this Holocaust and its legacy; he is interested in the personal narrative and the microhistorical approaches of Holocaust victims; he considers the question of the ‘forensic turn’ in Holocaust studies, the ‘forensic turn’ being the studies of human remains’ treatment during and after the genocide, including their uses for commemorative purposes.
