Description
Nazi Policy, Jewish Workers, German Killers focuses on controversial issues in current Holocaust scholarship. How did Nazi Jewish policy evolve during the first years of the war? When did the Nazi regime cross the historic watershed from population expulsion and decimation ('ethnic cleansing') to total and systematic extermination? How did Nazi authorities attempt to reconcile policies of expulsion and extermination with the wartime urge to exploit Jewish labor? How were Jewish workers show more impacted? What role did local authorities play in shaping Nazi policy? What more can we learn about the mindset and behavior of the local perpetrators? Using new evidence, this book attempts to shed light on these important questions. show lessTags

In questo libro Browning intende sciogliere principalmente 3 nodi. Il primo riguarda l'analisi delle scelte politiche che, ai massimi vertici del regime, consolidarono l'idea di una soluzione finale. In seconda battuta analizza la questione del lavoro ebraico che, anche se per un breve periodo, concesse una tregua alla distruzione di massa e forse consentì a pochi di trovare la salvezza. Da ultimo lo storico indaga gli atteggiamenti, le motivazioni e le forme di adattamento dimostrate dai tedeschi comuni di fronte all'orrore dell'Olocausto che di fatto furono la realizzazione locale e concreta delle politiche di sterminio.
