Convinced before the onset of Operation "Barbarossa" in June 1941
of both the ease, with which the Red Army would be defeated and the
likelihood that the Soviet Union would collapse, the Nazi regime
envisaged a radical and far-reaching occupation policy which would
result in the political, economic and racial reorganization of the
occupied Soviet territories and bring about the deaths of 'x
million people' through a conscious policy of starvation. This
study traces the step-by-step development of high-level planning
for the occupation policy in the Soviet territories over a
twelve-month period and establishes the extent to which the various
political and economic plans were compatible.
