A post I made to H-RadHist follows. You don't include Pierre Vidal-Naquet or Finkielkraut in that cheap shot category, I hope.

I haven't been able to find a copy of this book yet but, trust that it will be helpful. By an Italian Trotskyist, Enzo Traverso. "Understanding the Nazi Genocide: Marxism after Auschwitz, " by Enzo Traverso Peter Drucker (Translator), Pluto Press, I think or Humanities Press.
Became aware of his writings from this website which is focused on combating the "Holocaust Revisionists" of the Far Right. http://www.anti-rev.org/textes/ (And alas some ultra-leftists like the brother of Daniel-Cohn Bendit for example. See the book by Pierre Vidal-Naquet, "Assasins of Memory, " and the more recent one by Alain Finkelkraut, "The Future of a Negation: Reflections on the Question of Genocide, " Lincoln, NE University Of Nebraska Press 1998, for more on this twisted bit of intellectual history.)
