This book explains why more Jewish people survived in some
German-occupied countries compared to others during World War II.
Hollander demonstrates that collaborators sometimes played a
surprising role in ensuring Jewish survival. Where high-ranking
governing officials stayed in their countries and helped Nazi
Germany, they could often "trade" their loyal cooperation in
military and economic affairs for inefficient or incomplete
implementation of the Final Solution. And while they sometimes did
this because they had sincere moral objections to Nazi policy, they
also did so because deporting local Jews was politically unpopular,
because they regarded it as less important than winning the war, or
because deporting Jews meant that the collaborators gave up
potentially profitable opportunities to exploit them. This unique
book has important implications for our understanding of
state-sponsored violence, international hierarchy, and genocide,
and it raises harrowing moral questions about the Holocaust and the
nature of political evil.
