The persecution and mass-murder of the Jews during World War II
would not have been possible without the modern organization of
division of labor. Moreover, the perpetrators were dependent on
human and organizational resources they could not always control by
hierarchy and coercion. Instead, the persecution of the Jews was
based, to a large extent, on a web of inter-organizational
relations encompassing a broad variety of non-hierarchical
cooperation as well as rivalry and competition. Based on newly
accessible government and corporate archives, this volume combines
fresh evidence with an interpretation of the governance of
persecution, presented by prominent historians and social
scientists. Gerald D. Feldman is Professor of History and Director
of the Institute of European Studies at the University of
California, Berkeley. His special fields of interest are
20th-century German history, and he has a special interest in
business history, most recently authoring a biography of Hugo
Stinnes, participating in the history of the Deutsche Bank, and
writing a history of the Allianz Insurance Company in the Nazi
period. He has recently started work on a history of the Austrian
banks under National Socialism. Wolfgang Seibel is Professor of
Political Science at the University of Konstanz, Germany. Previous
appointments include guest professorships at the Institute for
Advanced Study, Vienna (1992), and the University of California at
Berkeley (1994). He was also a temporary member of the School of
Social Science (1989/90) and of the School of Historical Studies
(2003) of the Institute of Advanced Study, Princeton. Currently
(2004/2005) he is a fellow of the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin.
His research is mainly devoted to issues of politics, public
bureaucracy and non-governmental organizations.
