Nichts ist erfunden, kein Wort hinzugefügt Jürg Amann hat die Aufzeichnungen, die Auschwitz-Kommandant Rudolf Höß vor seiner Hinrichtung niederschrieb, zu einem ungeheuerlichen Monolog verdichtet: Dieses Buch sperrt seinen Leser in den Kopf eines Massenmörders. "Angesichts der Wirklichkeit ist alles Erfinden obszön. Vor allem da, wo man die Wirklichkeit haben kann. Auch wenn sie immer wieder geleugnet wird. Dann erst recht. Das habe ich nie so stark empfunden, wie als Die Wohlgesinnten von Jonathan Littell vor ein paar Jahren auf Deutsch erschienen sind: die affirmative Einfühlung in einen NS-Täter in Form eines Romans. Mir waren bei einer thematisch verwandten Theaterarbeit in Wien kurz zuvor die Aufzeichnungen von Rudolf Höß, des Kommandanten von Auschwitz, in die Hände gefallen. Da hatte ich die Antwort. Aus diesen Selbstzeugnissen, aus dieser auf erschütternde Weise naiven Selbstdenunziation ließ sich aus der Wirklichkeit eine Antwort auf die Fiktion gewinnen. Höß selbst hatte die Aufzeichnungen in der Zeit zwischen seiner Verhaftung nach Kriegsende durch die britische Militärpolizei und seiner Verurteilung zum Tod durch das polnische Oberste Volksgericht in der Krakauer Untersuchungshaft ohne Anflug von Reue oder auch nur Einsicht kalt zu Papier gebracht. An die dreihundert eng bedruckte Seiten waren im Dokument daraus geworden. In einem dramaturgischen Prozess der Strukturierung und der Verknappung, zuerst großteilig, dann immer kleinteiliger, habe ich sie auf ihre Essenz hin zugespitzt. Ein Monodrama in sechzehn Stationen ist daraus entstanden. Nichts ist erfunden, kaum ein Wort ist hinzugefügt, kaum ein Satz ist verändert, alles ist durch das gelebte und verwirkte Leben des Rudolf Höß gedeckt." Jürg Amann

A single word - Auschwitz - is often used to encapsulate the totality of persecution and suffering involved in what we call the Holocaust. Yet a focus on a single concentration camp - however horrific what happened there, however massively catastrophic its scale - leaves an incomplete story, a truncated history. It cannot fully communicate the myriad ways in which individuals became tangled up on the side of the perpetrators, and obscures the diversity of experiences among a wide range of victims as they struggled and died, or managed, against all odds, to survive. In the process, we also miss the continuing legacy of Nazi persecution across generations, and across continents. Mary Fulbrook's encompassing book attempts to expand our understanding, exploring the lives of individuals across a full spectrum of suffering and guilt, each one capturing one small part of the greater story. At its heart, Reckonings seeks to expose the disjuncture between official myths about "dealing with the past," on the one hand, and the extent to which the vast majority of Nazi perpetrators evaded justice, on the other. In the successor states to the Third Reich-East Germany, West Germany, and Austria - the attempts at justice varied widely in the years and decades after 1945. The Communist East German state pursued Nazi criminals and handed down severe sentences; West Germany, seeking to draw a line under the past, tended toward leniency and tolerance. Austria made nearly no reckoning at all until the 1980s, when news broke about UN Secretary General Kurt Waldheim's past. Following the various periods of trials and testimonials after the war, the shifting attitudes toward both perpetrators and survivors, this major book weighs heavily down on the scales of justice. The Holocaust is not mere "history," and the memorial landscape covering it barely touches the surface; beneath it churns the maelstrom of reverberations of the Nazi era. Reckonings uses the stories of those who remained below the radar of public representations, outside the media spotlight, while also situating their experiences in the changing wider contexts and settings in which they sought to make sense of unprecedented suffering. Fulbrook uses the word "reckoning" in the widest possible sense, to evoke the consequences of violence on those directly involved, but also on those affected indirectly, and how its effects have expanded almost infinitely across place and time.

When the German Wehrmacht swarmed across Eastern Europe, an elite corps followed close at its heels. Along with the SS and Gestapo, the Ordnungspolizei, or Uniformed Police, played a central role in Nazi genocide that until now has been generally neglected by historians of the war. Beginning with the invasion of Poland, the Uniformed Police were charged with following the army to curb resistance, pacify the countryside, patrol Jewish ghettos, and generally maintain order in the conquered territories. Edward Westermann examines how this force emerged as a primary instrument of annihilation, responsible for the murder of hundreds of thousands of the Third Reich's political and racial enemies. In Hitler's Police Battalions he reveals how the institutional mindset of these "ordinary policemen" allowed them to commit atrocities without a second thought. To uncover the story of how the German national police were fashioned into a corps of political soldiers, Westermann reveals initiatives pursued before the war by Heinrich Himmler and Kurt Daluege to create a culture within the existing police forces that fostered anti-Semitism and anti-Communism as institutional norms. Challenging prevailing interpretations of German culture, Westermann draws on extensive archival research—including the testimony of former policemen—to illuminate this transformation and the callous organizational culture that emerged. Purged of dissidents, indoctrinated to idolize Hitler, and trained in military combat, these police battalions-often numbering several hundred men-repeatedly conducted actions against Jews, Slavs, gypsies, asocials, and other groups on their own initiative, even when they had the choice not to. In addition to documenting these atrocities, Westermann examines cooperation between the Ordnungspolizei and the SS and Gestapo, and the close relationship between police and Wehrmacht in the conduct of the anti-partisan campaign of annihilation. Throughout, Westermann stresses the importance of ideological indoctrination and organizational initiatives within specific groups. It was the organizational culture of the Uniformed Police, he maintains, and not German culture in general that led these men to commit genocide. Hitler's Police Battalions provides the most complete and comprehensive study to date of this neglected branch of Himmler's SS and Police empire and adds a new dimension to our understanding of the Holocaust and the war on the Eastern front.
