  • Der Exempelkandidat. Die Dresdner Bank Und Der Nürnberger Prozess Gegen Karl Rasche
    637 Nach 1945 gerieten auch die Vorstände und Aufsichtsräte der deutschen Groß­ banken in das Visier der amerikanischen Militärregierung. Sie galten als potentielle Kriegs­ verbrecher. Angeklagt und verurteilt wurde aber nur ein einziger Bankier, der ehemalige Vorstandssprecher der Dresdner Bank, Karl Rasche, der zugleich als Repräsentant der Bank und politische Symbolfigur büßen musste. Ralf Ahrens beleuchtet die Hintergründe dieses Strafprozesses, der schließlich zum historischen Tribunal wurde, und er themati­ siert die Interessengegensätze von Rasche und seinen früheren Vorstandskollegen, die sich nach dem Prozess in Rasches Ausgrenzung aus der deutschen Bankierselite fort­ setzten. Ralf Ahrens Der Exempelkandidat Die Dresdner Bank und der Nürnberger Prozess gegen Karl Rasche Die zwölf Nürnberger „Nachfolgeprozesse", welche die USA nach dem Internatio­ nalen Militärtribunal gegen die Hauptkriegsverbrecher (IMT) in alleiniger Regie durchführten, demonstrierten vielleicht am augenfälligsten den amerikanischen Anspruch, nicht bei der militärischen Zerschlagung des Dritten Reichs stehen zu bleiben. Diese Prozesse zielten nicht nur auf die individuelle Bestrafung beson­ ders belasteter Täter, sondern darüber hinaus auf eine öffentliche Demonstration der Mitverantwortung deutscher Funktionseliten für die Verbrechen des NS- Regimes1. Dass diese Zielsetzung gerade auch die private Wirtschaft umfasste, belegen die drei Industriellenprozesse gegen Manager der Flick-, Krupp- und I. G.-Farben-Konzerne. Die deutschen Großbanken aber blieben bis auf eine Per­ son von der Anklage verschont: Allein Karl Rasche, der ehemalige Vorstandsspre- cher der Dresdner Bank, fand sich schließlich im Fall 11, dem „Wilhelmstraßen- Prozess", vor einem Nürnberger Tribunal wieder und wurde wegen seines SS- Ehrenrangs sowie seiner Beteiligung an der Ausbeutung der tschechischen und niederländischen Wirtschaft zu sieben Jahren Haft verurteilt. 1 Vgl. im Überblick Klaus-Dietmar Henke, Die Trennung vom Nationalsozialismus.

  • And 'Aryanization' of the Vienna Branches of the Banque Des Pays De L'europe Centrale and of the Živnostenská Banka, 1938
    Dieter Ziegler (Ruhr-Universität Bochum) The 'Germanisation' and 'Aryanization' of the Vienna branches of the Banque des Pays de l'Europe Centrale and of the Živnostenská banka, 1938 Paper 9th EBHA-Conference “Corporate Images – Images of the Corporation” Frankfurt 01-03 September 2005 Session 3 B ‘Aryanization Contracts’ Revisited Prof. Dr. Dieter Ziegler Lehrstuhl für Wirtschafts- und Unternehmensgeschichte Fakultät für Geschichtswissenschaft Ruhr-Universität D-44780 Bochum Email: [email protected] When Germany started its military expansion in Central Europe in 1938 the “Aryanization” of business property in the Old Reich had reached its climax, before it came to an end by the end of the year, when Jews were no longer entitled to carry on any business. In the occupied areas the problem of business property was even greater for the national socialists than in the Old Reich, because in addition to the Jews who were to be immediately ousted from the economy, armaments and other relevant industries, banks, insurance companies etc. had to be transferred to proprietors and managers who were regarded as reliable as Germans. These industries and businesses had to be “Germanized”. That meant that foreigners, whether Jews or non-Jews, as well as local industrialists and bankers, who were not regarded as ethnic Germans were also to be expelled from leading positions in the economy. In the final stage of the “Aryanization” process in the Old Reich the authorities had already realized that although the chaotic and mainly unregulated “Aryanizations” of the past years had been effective from the point of view of “Judenpolitik”, that is, to deprive the German Jews’ capability of economic survival, from the point of view of the economy, especially of the emerging war economy, it was counterproductive.

CHAPTER 3: The Evolution of the Trial Program INTRODUCTION As noted in the previous chapter, although Taylor‟s initial forecast called for at least 36 trials involving at least 266 defendants, the OCC ultimately managed to hold only 12 trials involving 185 defendants. This chapter explains that dramatic reduction. Section 1 focuses on the OCC‟s early planning, describing how the OCC determined which of the nearly 100,000 war-crimes suspects detained pursuant to JCS 1023/10 were eligible to be prosecuted in the zonal trials and examining the general principles the OCC used to group those potential defendants into particular cases. Section 2 then traces the gradual evolution of the OCC‟s actual trial program, explaining how the OCC selected the twelve trials and explaining why, for various reasons, it decided to abandon a number of other cases. I. PRINCIPLES OF SELECTION A. Early Planning The OCC – then still known as the SPD – began to determine who would be tried in the zonal trials

  • 7. Nationalsozialistische Herrschaft in Der Tschechoslowakei 1939-1945
    7. NATIONALSOZIALISTISCHE HERRSCHAFT IN DER TSCHECHOSLOWAKEI 1939-1945 Der wechselvollen böhmischen Geschichte ist nicht allein mit Anmut und Friedfertigkeit beizukommen, grünen Hügeln, Dorfkirchen und blauen Wolken, vor allem nicht, wenn die Okkupationszeit, das Protektorat, und die Ereignisse von 1945 bis 1948, Vertreibung und Enteignung, auch die nach dem kommunistischen Putsch, zur Frage stehen. Der Patriotismus der einen wie der anderen baut seine Barrikaden und Mauern, die den Blick verstellen, und die amtlich schematischen Schwarzweißperspektiven von Schuld und Unschuld suchen sich anstelle von Tragik, Lächerlichkeit, Lüge und unerwarteter Humanität festzusetzen. Peter Demetz, Das Dorf und die Deutsche (2010) Die Tschechen im „Protektorat Böhmen und Mähren“ 777 Verfolgung, Entrechtung, Enteignung und Vertreibung der Deutschen in und aus der Tschechoslowakei waren einerseits Konsequenzen aus der nationalso- zialistischen Gewaltpolitik gegenüber Tschechen und Slowaken, andererseits Teil der alliierten Politik gegenüber Hitler-Deutschland und „den Deutschen“, die unter den Leitmotiven Kollektivschuld, Rache, Vergeltung, Kollektivstrafe und Zwangsaussiedlung stand. Darüber hinaus entwickelten die tschechischen, slowakischen und tschechoslowakischen Widerstandsorganisationen ebenso wie die tschechoslowakischen Exilorganisationen – vornehmlich in London und Moskau – eigene Strategien für die Bestrafung der Deutschen nach dem Welt- krieg, hinter denen durchaus auch alte nationale Feindbilder und Neidkomplexe sichtbar wurden, die jedenfalls bis 1918, in Ansätzen sogar bis 1848 zurück- reichten.1531 Ein Photo vom Einmarsch der Wehrmacht in Prag, das Geschichte gemacht und sich tief ins kollektive Gedächtnis der Tschechen eingegraben hat, ist das Photo von Karel Hájek. Es zeigt zwei in ihrem offenen Militärauto sitzende deutsche Soldaten vor der am Straßenrand stehenden tschechischen Bevölke- rung, die in ohnmächtiger Wut und tiefer Verzweiflung von tschechischen Ord- nungskräften zurückgehalten wird.

  • Antony C. Sutton – Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler
    PREFACE This is the third and final volume of a trilogy describing the role of the American corporate socialists, otherwise known as the Wall Street financial elite or the Eastern Liberal Establishment, in three significant twentieth-century historical events: the 1917 Lenin- Trotsky Revolution in Russia, the 1933 election of Franklin D. Roosevelt in the United States, and the 1933 seizure of power by Adolf Hitler in Germany. Each of these events introduced some variant of socialism into a major country — i.e., Bolshevik socialism in Russia, New Deal socialism in the United States, and National socialism in Germany. Contemporary academic histories, with perhaps the sole exception of Carroll Quigley's Tragedy And Hope, ignore this evidence. On the other hand, it is understandable that universities and research organizations, dependent on financial aid from foundations that are controlled by this same New York financial elite, would hardly want to support and to publish research on these aspects of international politics. The bravest of trustees is unlikely to bite the hand that feeds his organization. It is also eminently clear from the evidence in this trilogy that "public-spirited businessmen" do not journey to Washington as lobbyists and administrators in order to serve the United States. They are in Washington to serve their own profit-maximizing interests. Their purpose is not to further a competitive, free-market economy, but to manipulate a politicized regime, call it what you will, to their own advantage. It is business manipulation of Hitler's accession to power in March 1933 that is the topic of Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. I f it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image o f the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. I f necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.
