| Σύνοψη: | Following “ordinary men” and “ordinary Germans,” we now have what Mary Fulbrook calls in her book A Small Town near Auschwitz an “ordinary Nazi.” The ordinary Nazi in this instance is one Udo Klausa, Landrat (district chief) during the early 1940s of the county of Będzin in territory seized by the Nazi regime from a defeated Poland in 1939 and then incorporated into the province of Eastern Silesia. As Landrat, Klausa served as the county's chief administrative officer charged with implementing orders dictated downward to him from Berlin. A Landrat's function was not to make policy; it was to follow orders. |
