The German invasion of the Soviet Union during the Second World War
was central to Nazi plans for territorial expansion and genocidal
demographic revolution. To create 'living space', Nazi Germany
pursued two policies. The first was the systematic murder of
millions of Jews, Slavs, Roma, and other groups that the Nazis
found undesirable on racial, religious, ethnic, ideological,
hereditary, or behavioral grounds. It also pursued a parallel,
albeit smaller, program to mobilize supposedly Germanic residents
of Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union - so-called Volksdeutsche or
ethnic Germans - as the vanguard of German expansion. This study
recovers the intersection of these two projects in Transnistria, a
portion of southern Ukraine that, because of its numerous
Volksdeutsche communities, became an epicenter of both Nazi
Volksdeutsche policy and the Holocaust in conquered Soviet
territory, ultimately asking why local residents, whom German
authorities identified as Volksdeutsche, participated in the
Holocaust with apparent enthusiasm.
