5. Leonardo Paggi, Ed., Storia E Memoria Di Un Massacro Ordinario NOTES I Introduction 1. Egidio Cristini, "II massacro dei trecentoventi," recorded in Rome in 1957 by Roberto Leydi, in the CD Avanti Popo~6--Fischia il vento, lstituto Ernesto de Martino-­ Hobby&Work, 1998. Egidio Cristini was a construction worker and an improviser in the folk poetical tradition of the ottava rima, the eight-line stanza also used by Renaissance poets like Ludovico Ariosto and Torquato Tasso. 2. There never was any such thing as a "Badoglio-Communist." General Pietro Badoglio was prime minister in the king's government after Mussolini's overthrow and the removal of the king and his cabinet to Brindisi, in Southern Italy; the members of the military who stayed behind and were active in the Resistance were called "badogliani." They were monarchists, conservatives and anti-Communists. 3. The Fosse Ardeatine (or Cave Ardeatine as they were then known) were abandoned caves of pozzolana (a "finely divided siliceous or siliceous and aluminous material that reacts chemically with slaked lime at ordinary temperature and in the presence of moisture to form a strong hardening cement," ~bsters College Dictionary). It was used for the mak­ ing of cement and concrete during the construction boom of the 1880s in Rome. 4.

In fact, when I first heard of Holocaust deniers, I laughed and dismissed them as not worthy of serious analysis. Then I looked more closely and I changed my mind.

  • Daniel Stahl. Nazi-Jagd: Südamerikas Diktaturen Und Die Ahndung Von NS-Verbrechen
    Daniel Stahl. Nazi-Jagd: Südamerikas Diktaturen und die Ahndung von NS-Verbrechen. Göttingen: Wallstein-Verlag. 2013. Reviewed by: Christiane Grieb, UCL Stahl’s Nazi-Jagd (Nazi Hunt) investigates the responses of South American governments to international requests for cooperation in the search for Nazi war criminals from 1945 through 2011. The Allied war crimes trial programs in Europe were largely limited to the trial of those Nazis identified and arrested in Allied detention centres in Europe. About many of the most atrocious war crimes and its perpetrators though, the public learned of only years or even decades later, and owed only to the locating or capture of Nazis like Mengele, Eichmann, Priebke or Barbie in South American countries. Previous research on escaped Nazi war criminals often focused on: the clandestine organisation of networks (ODESSA) that helped war criminals to thwart prosecution, provided fastidiously reconstructed operations of ‘ratlines’ out of Allied occupied Europe and into the safe havens of South America. Other more recent biographical studies crafted accounts of the social-nationalist careers and personal lives of war criminals in hiding. The German-based historian Daniel Stahl now complements these insights with his studies of judicial attempts to locate and to bring to justice those Nazi war criminals who had escaped to South America. Most capturing are his accounts of the resistance and diplomatic jiggery-pokery that West German prosecutors faced in South America. For decades, the majority of these efforts were foiled and Nazi war criminals could live unmolested in South America. Stahl did not just offer narratives of events, but in fact sought to establish an historical account of the achievements and failures to identify and repatriate Nazi war criminals for trial for a period of 50 years.

  • Primo Levi and the Material World
    Gerry Kearns1 If wood were an element: Primo Levi and the material world Abstract The precarious survival of a single shed from the Jewish slave labour quarters of the industrial complex that was Auschwitz- Monowitz offers an opportunity to reflect upon aspects of the materiality of the signs of the Holocaust. This shed is very likely ne that Primo Levi knew and its survival incites us to interrogate its materiality and significance by engaging with Levi’s own writings on these matters. I begin by explicating the ways the shed might function as an ‘encountered sign,’ before moving to consider its materiality both as a product of modernist genocide and as witness to the relations between precarity and vitality. Finally, I turn to the texts written upon the shed itself and turn to the performative function of Nazi language. Keywords Holocaust, icon, index, materiality, performativity, Primo Levi Fig. 1 - The interior of the shed, December 2012 (Photograph by kind permission of Carlos Reijnen) It is December 2012, we are near the town of Monowice in Poland. Alongside a small farmhouse, there is a hay-shed. The shed is in two parts with two doorways communicating and above these, “Eingang” and “Ausgang”. In the further part of the shed, there is more text, in Gothic font, in German. Along a crossbeam 1 National University of Ireland, Maynooth; [email protected]. I want to thank the directors of the Terrorscapes Project (Rob van der Laarse and Georgi Verbeeck) for the invitation to come on the field trip to Auschwitz. I want to thank Hans Citroen and Robert Jan van Pelt for their patient teaching about the history of the site.

  • The Italian Supreme Court Decision on the Ferrini Case
    The European Journal of International Law Vol. 16 no.1 © EJIL 2005; all rights reserved ........................................................................................... State Immunity and Human Rights: The Italian Supreme Court Decision on the Ferrini Case Pasquale De Sena* and Francesca De Vittor** Abstract In the Ferrini case the Italian Supreme Court affirmed that Germany was not entitled to sovereign immunity for serious violations of human rights carried out by German occupying forces during World War II. In order to reach this innovative conclusion, the Court widely referred to international legal arguments, such as the concept of international crimes, the principle of primacy of jus cogens norms and the notion of a strict analogy between state immunity and the ‘functional immunity’ of state officials. Based upon a systematic interpretation of the international legal order, the Court conducted a ‘balancing of values’ between the two fundamental international law principles of the sovereign equality of states and of the protection of inviolable human rights. This article explores the Court’s reasoning and its consistency with international legal theory and preceding case law with the view to verifying whether, and in which sense, the Ferrini judgment may facilitate a radical reappraisal of the relationship between human rights and the law of state immunity. 1 Introduction and Outline The recent judgment of the Italian Supreme Court (Corte di Cassazione) in Ferrini v.
