Abstract

[Since the 1980s there has been broad public acknowledgement of Raoul Wallenberg’s humanitarian activity on behalf of the Hungarian Jews during World War II. This is manifested by the existence of monuments erected in his honor. By 2008, 31 Wallenberg monuments had been erected in 12 countries on five continents: from Hungary to Sweden, from Canada to Chile, from Australia to Russia. And at the time of writing these lines another monument is waiting for its realization in Germany.1]
