Kaum ein Thema belebt die natur- und geisteswissenschaftliche Diskussion so nachhaltig und vehement wie die Frage: Sind wir Menschen hauptsachlich das Produkt unserer Gene oder das Produkt unserer Umwelt, unseres Milieus? Im Angelsachsischen spricht man von der 'Nature or Nurture'-Debatte. Werden auch vielfach noch die Extrempositionen des vollstandigen genetischen Determinismus oder des vollstandigen Umweltdeterminismus vertreten, so weisen ethologische, evolutionare, psychologische und soziologische Forschungen darauf hin, dass die menschliche Natur sowohl durch unsere Gene als auch durch unsere Umwelt bestimmt wird. Unser Verhalten und unser Leben ist weder komplett genetisch gesteuert noch ganzlich unabhangig von unseren Genen; sie sind eher eine Mischung aus ererbten Merkmalen und Erfahrung und Lernen. Der vorliegende Themenband versucht, die 'Nature or Nurture'-Debatte interdisziplinar zu behandeln."

November 9th 1938 is widely seen as a violent turning point in Nazi Germany's assault on the Jews. An estimated 400 Jews lost their lives in the anti-Semitic pogrom and more than 30,000 were imprisoned or sent to concentration camps, where many were brutally mistreated. Thousands more fled their homelands in Germany and Austria, shocked by what they had seen, heard and experienced. What they took with them was not only the pain of saying farewell but also the memory of terrible scenes: attacks by mobs of drunken Nazis, public humiliations, burning synagogues, inhuman conditions in overcrowded prison cells and concentration camp barracks. The reactions of neighbours and passersby to these barbarities ranged from sympathy and aid to scorn, mockery, and abuse.

In 1939 the Harvard sociologist Edward Hartshorne gathered eyewitness accounts of the Kristallnacht from hundreds of Jews who had fled, but Hartshorne joined the Secret Service shortly afterwards and the accounts he gathered were forgotten - until now. These eyewitness testimonies - published here for the first time, with a foreword by Saul Friedlander, the Pulitzer Prize historian and Holocaust survivor - paint a harrowing picture of everyday violence in one of Europe's darkest moments.

This unique and disturbing document will be of great interest to anyone interested in modern history, Nazi Germany and the historical experience of the Jews.
