SS ideology was the expression of an apparently philosophical
self-containing system of thought, articulated around a systematic
body of knowledge claiming to integrate humanity inside a global
vision of Being. Using ontology and anthropology as foundations, SS
thinking developed essentially in the field of ethics. It portrayed
itself as a global approach to society and civilization, based on
eugenics and ethnic cleansing. It accomplished the fusion of the
modern biological paradigm with the cultural shock brought about by
World War I and promoted total war for the sake of total health.
And since institutional philosophy largely ignores SS theory and
praxis, Holocaust memorial institutions may represent an
alternative for the development of understanding and reflection.
Within the context of Nazism, SS thinking did much to work out the
theory for which the Holocaust would be the ultimate
accomplishment. It intended to provide the Holocaust with
legitimacy, from the viewpoints of ontology, anthropology,
politics, and ethics, whence the importance of studying the
theoretical framework that gave sense to the most terrible form of
SS praxis.
