Based on extensive archival research, this book offers a historical
examination of the arrest, trial and punishment of the leaders of
the SS-Einsatzgruppen - the mobile security and killing units
employed by the Nazis in their racial war on the Eastern front.
Sent to the Soviet Union in the summer of 1941, four units of the
Einsatzgruppen, along with reinforcements, murdered approximately 1
million Soviet civilians in open air shootings and in gas vans and,
in 1947, twenty-four leaders of these units were indicted for
crimes against humanity and war crimes for their part in the
murders. In addition to describing the legal proceedings that held
these men accountable, this book also examines historiographical
trends and perpetrator paradigms and expounds on such contested
issues as the timing and genesis of the Final Solution, the
perpetrators' route to crime and their motivation for killing, as
well as discussing the tensions between law and history.
