    ELEM Youth in Distress Annual Report 2007 ELEM 2007 Annual Report Nava Barak ELEM President As president of Elem, I am honored to report a year of truly unique and significant achievements for youth at risk in Israel. This year marks the 25th anniversary of our important operations - the efforts of hundreds of devoted employees and thousands of volunteers from all over the country who consistently rise to the occasion and dedicate themselves on a daily basis all for the benefit of our youth- be it in the streets, in the night outreach vans, in our day centers or through our preventative programs and local leaderships. These dedicated teams give of their time, their professional expertise and most importantly, give their heart and soul to offer youth a better life and help them become contributing citizens in the community. Despite the serious social, security and economic problems facing Israeli society, more and more citizens volunteer for the programs. We at Elem recognize that volunteers are greatly appreciated by the youth themselves and have a positive impact on their lives, as they rebuild trusting relationships and create a real change in their lives. I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude for the important work of our 1,500 adult and youth volunteers all across the country. One of Elem's latest and most innovative projects, "Derech Hamelech" (The Way of the King), has substantially grown over the past year. As the name suggests, the program provides youth who dropped out of all formal frameworks and youth in conflict with the law, a new direction that re-integrates them into society, through a mentored employment program.

Después de la derrota alemana las potencias victoriosas acabaron con el trust. Así nacieron BASF, Hoechst o Bayer, pero IG Farben siguio existiendo hasta ayer. El pasado 9 de noviembre el antiguo consorcio IG Farben, una especie de INI o SEPI germana, se ha declarado insolvente, pero ese hecho no significa que vaya a desaparecer de forma inmediata: sus acciones siguen siendo objeto de especulación en los corros bursátiles. La historia de la IG Farben se lee como el historial de un criminal. Fundada en 1925 por las mayores empresas alemanas de química, la IG Farben se convirtió en un importante actor en la política alemana de entreguerras. Fue el mayor agente financiero del partido nazi que lideraba Adolf Hitler. Cuando el "Führer" llegó al poder los grandes dirigentes de la IG Farben le aseguraron que habían solucionado el problema de la falta de petróleo: la fabricación de gasolina artificial. Gracias a los ingenieros y técnicos de la IG Farben, Hitler pudo empezar su guerra por el "espacio vital" en Europa. Los estrategas del trust tenían pensando hacerse con los mercados siguiendo a la victoriosa "Wehrmacht". Facilitaron informaciones sensibles al Comando Supremo y colocaron a agentes en sus sucursales.

    The Factory Action and the Events at the Rosenstrasse in Berlin: Facts and Fictions About 27 February 1943 — Sixty Years Later

    The Factory Action and the Events at the Rosenstrasse in Berlin: Facts and Fictions about 27 February 1943 — Sixty Years Later Wolf Gruner N 27 February 1943 in Nazi Germany the Gestapo brutally arrested more than ten thousand Jewish men and women. Martin Riesen- burger, later the Chief Rabbi of the German Democratic Republic, O 1 recalled that day as "the great inferno." This large-scale raid marked the begin- ning of the final phase of the mass deportations, which had been under way since October 1941. Also interned in Berlin were people who, according to NS termi- nology, lived in so-called mixed marriages. But new documents show that no deportation of this special group was planned by the Gestapo. In the past dec- ade, in both the German as well as the American public, quite a bit of attention has been paid to the fact that non-Jewish relatives publicly demonstrated against the feared deportation of their Jewish partners. The scholarly literature as well has pictured this protest as a unique act of resistance that prevented the depor- tation of these Jews living in mixed marriages. The fact that during this raid an untold number of Jews, both women and men, fled and went underground has so far been ignored. Since we still know much too little, the following article will discuss all the events of the spring of 1943 and their background.2 Memory and History Since the beginning of the 1990s, this "successful" protest during the NS dic- tatorship has been commemorated in Germany annually. Especially in Berlin, Translated by Ursula Marcum.

Goethe-Universität / Fritz Bauer Institut Frankfurt am Main, 2010 www.wollheim-memorial.de Florian Schmaltz: The Buna/Monowitz Concentration Camp, p. 1 The Decision of I.G. Farbenindustrie to Locate a Plant in Auschwitz The Buna/Monowitz concentration camp, which was erected by the SS in October 1942, was the first German concentration camp that was located on the plant grounds of a major private corporation.1 Its most important function was the fur- nishing of concentration camp prisoners as slave laborers for building the I.G. Auschwitz plant, I.G. Farben‘s largest construction site. Instead of estab- lishing an industrial production location on the grounds of an existing concentra- tion camp, a company-owned branch camp of a concentration camp was put up here, for the first time, on a site belonging to an arms manufacturer. This new procedure for construction of the I.G. Auschwitz plant served as a model and in- fluenced the subsequent collaboration between the arms industry and the SS in the process of expanding the concentration camp system in Nazi territory throughout Europe, particularly toward the end of the war, when numerous sub- camps were established in the course of shifting industrial war production to un- derground sites.2 The Buna/Monowitz concentration camp was located in East Upper Silesia within the western provinces of Poland, which had been annexed by the German Reich.

    Edward Kossoy, Holocaust und Wiedergutmachung. Erinnerungen eines jüdischen Anwalts, Wissenschaftliche Buchgesellschaft, Darmstadt 2012, 287 S., kart., 29,90 €. Nachruf auf Edward Kossoy Es könnte schlimmer sein. So beginnt die Geschichte von dem Mann, der zu früh nach Hause kommt und seine Frau im Bett mit dem Nachbarn findet. Er erschießt beide und bringt dann auch sich selbst um. Es könnte schlimmer sein, sagt der Erzähler. Wäre er zwei Tage früher gekommen, hätte er mich erschossen. Den Nachruf auf ein Jahrhundertleben mit einem Witz zu beginnen, ist ein Wagnis. Zu sehr Klischee, zu groß die Gefahr, etwas Unpassendes zu sagen. Doch Edward Kossoy, einer der Pioniere der Wie- dergutmachung für NS-Unrecht, machte es einem leicht, sich von derlei Befürchtungen zu befreien. Fragte man ihn danach, was als Leitspruch für sein Leben gelten könnte, antwortete er: Wenn schon, dann: „Es könnte schlimmer sein.“ Und erzählte die Geschichte. Seine erste Stelle bekam Kossoy als 16-Jähriger bei der polnischen Lokalzeitung „Opinja“ („Mei- nung“), für die er jeden Tag ein kleines satirisches Gedicht verfasste. Einen besonderen Humor, der herzlich und auch beißend sein kann, hat er offenbar schon damals gepflegt. Er war ein feiner, kluger und auch erfolgreicher Mann. Sein Leben war zugleich außergewöhnlich und doch leider auch be- zeichnend für die Zeitläufte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Sieben Sprachen sprach er: Neben Polnisch und Russisch, den Sprachen seiner Kindheit, auch Hebräisch, Englisch, Französisch und nicht zuletzt Deutsch, die Sprache seiner Verfolger. „Ich bin ein polnischer Jude.“ So beginnen seine Memoiren. Die deutsche Ausgabe erschien wenige Monate vor seinem Tod, und sie trägt leider den etwas blassen Titel „Holocaust und Wiedergutmachung.
