Among the many narratives about the atrocities committed against
Jews in the Holocaust, the story about the Jews who lived in the
eye of the storm—the German Jews—has received little attention.
Germans against Germans: The Fate of the Jews, 1938–1945, tells
this story—how Germans declared war against other Germans, that
is, against German Jews. Author Moshe Zimmermann explores questions
of what made such a war possible? How could such a radical process
of exclusion take place in a highly civilized, modern society? What
were the societal mechanisms that paved the way for legal
discrimination, isolation, deportation, and eventual extermination
of the individuals who were previously part and parcel of German
society? Germans against Germans demonstrates how the combination
of antisemitism, racism, bureaucracy, cynicism, and imposed
collaboration culminated in "the final solution."
