  • Hitler's American Model
    Hitler’s American Model The United States and the Making of Nazi Race Law James Q. Whitman Princeton University Press Princeton and Oxford 1 Introduction This jurisprudence would suit us perfectly, with a single exception. Over there they have in mind, practically speaking, only coloreds and half-coloreds, which includes mestizos and mulattoes; but the Jews, who are also of interest to us, are not reckoned among the coloreds. —Roland Freisler, June 5, 1934 On June 5, 1934, about a year and a half after Adolf Hitler became Chancellor of the Reich, the leading lawyers of Nazi Germany gathered at a meeting to plan what would become the Nuremberg Laws, the notorious anti-Jewish legislation of the Nazi race regime. The meeting was chaired by Franz Gürtner, the Reich Minister of Justice, and attended by officials who in the coming years would play central roles in the persecution of Germany’s Jews. Among those present was Bernhard Lösener, one of the principal draftsmen of the Nuremberg Laws; and the terrifying Roland Freisler, later President of the Nazi People’s Court and a man whose name has endured as a byword for twentieth-century judicial savagery. The meeting was an important one, and a stenographer was present to record a verbatim transcript, to be preserved by the ever-diligent Nazi bureaucracy as a record of a crucial moment in the creation of the new race regime. That transcript reveals the startling fact that is my point of departure in this study: the meeting involved detailed and lengthy discussions of the law of the United States.

  • Chapter Three: Daily Life in the Public Domain, 1933–1938
    125 Chapter Three: Daily Life in the Public Domain, 1933–1938 Nazi Policy toward the Jews The introduction and the implementation of Nazi policy toward the Jews affected them in all aspects of their lives, including the public domain. As the years progressed, their level of insecurity and lack of safety escalated. Whether policy dealt with public or private space, Jewish or non-Jewish space was inconsequential. All policy was engineered toward the demonisation, humiliation and exclusion of Jews from all spheres of life and influence in Germany. Included in this was their constant surveillance as declared ‘enemies of the German people.’ All policy also affected the behaviours and attitudes of non-Jews towards Jews in the public domain, as Jews had been allocated pariah status. In depicting the effect of Nazi policy on the daily lives of Jews in the city from 1933 until the pogrom in November 1938, a similar pattern corresponding to the time-line of economic disenfranchisement emerges. The initial shock and violence of 1933 was followed by a period of adjustment to their new and disturbing status.1 Ongoing boycotts and public defamation, combined with the exclusion from some public places, were the main features until the introduction of the Nuremberg Laws in 1935. After September 1935 Jews no longer possessed any legal status and were racially defined. This led to an open season of accusing Jews of either invented crimes or newly created crimes, such as ‘Rassenschande.’ In Magdeburg this resulted in show trials and the trial by media of a number of community members.
