This book explores the Holocaust as a social process. Although the
mass murder of European Jews was essentially the result of
political-ideological decisions made by the Nazi state leadership,
the events of the Holocaust were also part of a social dynamic. All
European societies experienced developments that led to the social
exclusion, persecution and murder of the continent's Jews. This
volume therefore questions Raul Hilbergs category of the
'bystander'. In societies where the political order expects
citizens to endorse the exclusion of particular groups in the
population, there cannot be any completely uninvolved bystanders.
Instead, this book examines the multifarious forms of social action
and behaviour connected with the Holocaust. It focuses on
institutions and persons, helpers, co-perpetrators, facilitators
and spectators, beneficiaries and profiteers, as well as Jewish
victims and Jewish organisations trying to cope with the dynamics
of exclusion and persecution.
