  • THE POLISH POLICE Collaboration in the Holocaust
    THE POLISH POLICE Collaboration in the Holocaust Jan Grabowski The Polish Police Collaboration in the Holocaust Jan Grabowski INA LEVINE ANNUAL LECTURE NOVEMBER 17, 2016 The assertions, opinions, and conclusions in this occasional paper are those of the author. They do not necessarily reflect those of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. First printing, April 2017 Copyright © 2017 by Jan Grabowski THE INA LEVINE ANNUAL LECTURE, endowed by the William S. and Ina Levine Foundation of Phoenix, Arizona, enables the Center to bring a distinguished scholar to the Museum each year to conduct innovative research on the Holocaust and to disseminate this work to the American public. Wrong Memory Codes? The Polish “Blue” Police and Collaboration in the Holocaust In 2016, seventy-one years after the end of World War II, the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs disseminated a long list of “wrong memory codes” (błędne kody pamięci), or expressions that “falsify the role of Poland during World War II” and that are to be reported to the nearest Polish diplomat for further action. Sadly—and not by chance—the list elaborated by the enterprising humanists at the Polish Foreign Ministry includes for the most part expressions linked to the Holocaust. On the long list of these “wrong memory codes,” which they aspire to expunge from historical narrative, one finds, among others: “Polish genocide,” “Polish war crimes,” “Polish mass murders,” “Polish internment camps,” “Polish work camps,” and—most important for the purposes of this text—“Polish participation in the Holocaust.” The issue of “wrong memory codes” will from time to time reappear in this study.

  • Memorial Minute in Memory of Wechsler
    430 • 2000 PROCEEDINGS The Memorial Minute in memory of Herbert Wechsler was read by Chair of the Council Roswell B. Perkins. Herbert Wechsler December 4, 1909 - April 26, 2000 Out of the nine decades of the life of Herbert Wechsler, 46 years were ones of membership in The American Law Institute and 21 years were ones of extraordinary service as the third Director of the Institute. It is unlikely that the magnificence of his contributions to the Institute will ever be surpassed. In his oral interview with Paul Wolkin in 1989, Herb said (and I cannot refrain from calling him Herb in spite of the formality of this biographical memorial): I remember it took quite a lot of courage on my part, after I'd been a Reporter for a couple of years, to ask Judge Goodrich if he'd either propose me or get me proposed as a member. He looked at me with astonishment and said, "You mean you're not a member?" Of course Judge Goodrich, Herb's predecessor as Director, promptly remedied this institutional oversight in the same year, 1954. Herb's choice of a career in service of the law was attributable in part to the fact of his being the son of a lawyer, Samuel Wechsler. Herb was born in New York City, brought up in Manhattan, and entered City College of New York at the age of 15, graduating in 1928 with a degree in French. In a dialogue recorded in the Columbia Oral History Project, conducted between 1978 and 1982, Herb gave us this vignette of his col­ lege days: I was not only apolitical, but rather anti-political in col­ lege.

THE GLOBAL DIMENSION OF RFRA Gerald L. Neuman* A multi-faceted controversy is currently raging over the con­ stitutionality of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 (RFRA),t the federal legislative response to the Supreme Court's decision in Employment Division v. Smith.z In Smith, the Supreme Court eliminated most constitutional claims to religious exemption from generally applicable laws, abandoning a prior practice of subjecting such claims (verbally at least) to a compel­ ling interest test. The majority asserted that the Free Exercise Clause does not require state or federal governments to accom­ modate conscientious objectors to compliance with generally ap­ plicable laws. Congress, in turn, emphasized that "laws 'neutral' toward religion may burden religious exercise as surely as laws intended to interfere with religious exercise," and acted to "re­ store the compelling interest test" as a matter of statutory right.3 Congress's authority to enact such a statute, particularly as applied to generally applicable laws of the states, has been dis­ puted.

  • A Lucky Child
    Reading Group Guide A LUCKY CHILD A MEMOIR OF SURVIVING AUSCHWITZ AS A YOUNG BOY by THOMAS BUERGENTHAL LLuckyChild_TPtextF1.indduckyChild_TPtextF1.indd 223131 77/31/10/31/10 112:57:482:57:48 AAMM A brief conversation with Thomas Buergenthal You write in your book that you were “lucky” to get into Auschwitz. What did you mean by that? What role did luck play in your sur- vival during the Holocaust? What I meant is that, unlike most people who arrived at Auschwitz, there was no selection at the station. Had there been a selection, children and old or sick people would have been “selected out,” that is, taken to the gas chambers. Hence, I was lucky to have gotten into the camp. Why did you wait so long to tell your story? Would your memoir have been different if you had written it right after the war? I waited so long because I was very busy raising a family, teaching, writing law books, and doing many other important things. Had I written the book right after the war, the book would have dwelt too much on all the cruelties I witnessed and been hate fi lled. In the process, the book would not have focused on the issues I consider important. 2 LLuckyChild_TPtextF1.indduckyChild_TPtextF1.indd 223232 77/31/10/31/10 112:57:482:57:48 AAMM Reading Group Guide What was it like for you when you returned to Auschwitz many years later? Were you surprised by what you found there? What surprised me most of all was that the SS no longer recorded the names of the prisoners who arrived at Auschwitz in late 1943 and in 1944.

    MILITANT LIBERALISM AND ITS DISCONTENTS: ON THE DECOLONIAL ORIGINS OF ENDLESS WAR A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Aaron B Gavin December 2017 © 2017 Aaron B Gavin MILITANT LIBERALISM AND ITS DISCONTENTS: ON THE DECOLONIAL ORIGINS OF ENDLESS WAR Aaron B Gavin, Ph. D. Cornell University 2017 MILITANT LIBERALISM AND ITS DISCONTENTS tells a story about the reinvention of liberalism during the era of decolonization. The dissertation shows how a persistent pattern of militant liberalism came to structure the postwar international order—one where the United States engages in militant action to protect the liberal international order from irredeemable illiberal threats, precisely when its hegemonic influence reaches its limit. While anti-totalitarianism and the war on terror are defining episodes in the development of this pattern, the dissertation argues that it was only liberalism’s encounter with decolonization that made the practice of militant liberalism ideologically coherent and enduring. After shattering the civilizational justifications of nineteenth century liberalism, decolonization provided militant liberals with a unique enemy, the Third World, upon which to distinguish and legitimate their own logic of violence, all while destroying alternative political possibilities arising out of the decolonial process. The dissertation explores these themes through four political thinkers—Isaiah Berlin, Louis Henkin, Frantz Fanon, and Carl Schmitt—and narrates a story about the legitimation of militant liberalism and the eventual rise of its discontents. On the one hand, Berlin and Henkin spoke of Thirdworldism as uniquely threatening: the former arguing that Thirdworldist nationalism often morphed into romantic self-assertion, and the latter claiming that Thirdworldists exploited state sovereignty allowing international terrorism to proliferate unbound.

  • Thomas Buergenthal — a Lucky Child by Katie Davis
    Thomas Buergenthal — A Lucky Child by Katie Davis Katie Davis: I’m Katie Davis. We know the history of World War II — and still, when someone tells his or her own story, we always learn. Thomas Buergenthal saw the Nazi concentration camps Auschwitz and Sachsenhausen through a child’s eyes. He was separated from his parents in the camps and managed to survive by his wits ... and luck. And that is what he called his first book: A Lucky Child. And Thomas Buergenthal turned his luck into a force for change. Begin with a bicycle and a pony. [AUDIO: OLD MUSIC ON VICTROLA HIT UNDER; MAX BLOCH TENOR SINGS GERMAN WAR SONG] Katie Davis: The boy learns to ride them both — in the dust of the camp, out of sight of the S.S. guard. Later, the Polish army gives him the circus pony and a uniform. It is 1945, and he rides to Berlin with the Polish Army to fight the last German soldiers. [MUSIC (FADES AWAY)] Katie Davis: He was Tommy then. Six years old at first, then 10 and 11, born to German Jewish/Polish parents. And the family was forced into a ghetto, in Kielce, Poland. [NEWSREEL GERMAN/WARSAW GHETTO ** JEWS MUST BE IN JEWISH AREAS.] Katie Davis: The family was forced into a ghetto in Kielce, Poland, and he can remember his father, shaving at the kitchen sink while orders were shouted from the street.
