Περιγραφή
Σύνοψη:The participation of the German people in the Holocaust remains a subject as controversial as it is uncomfortable. At one extreme stands the hypothesis of a “culture of genocide” traceable to the Lutheran Reformation, the Middle Ages, or even further back. At the other is the construction of a people cowed, deceived, and brutalized—essentially excluded from participation in a genocide inspired by Hitler and implemented by his minions., Thomas Kühne, Clark University's Strassler Family Professor in the Study of Holocaust History, has a distinguished record of achievement in contextualizing the Holocaust in the social and cultural history of modern Germany. This volume summarizes and epitomizes his approach and conclusions.
