  • Brigitte Bailer-Galanda “Revisionism”1 in Germany and Austria: the Evolution of a Doctrine
    www.doew.at Brigitte Bailer-Galanda “Revisionism”1 in Germany and Austria: The Evolution of a Doctrine Published in: Hermann Kurthen/Rainer Erb/Werner Bergmann (ed.), Anti-Sem- itism and Xenophobia in Germany after Unification, New York–Oxford 1997 Development of “revisionism” since 1945 Most people understand so called „revisionism“ as just another word for the movement of holocaust denial (Benz 1994; Lipstadt 1993; Shapiro 1990). Therefore it was suggested lately to use the word „negationism“ instead. How- ever in the author‘s point of view „revisionism“ covers some more topics than just the denying of the National Socialist mass murders. Especially in Germany and Austria there are some more points of National Socialist politics some people have tried to minimize or apologize since 1945, e. g. the responsibility for World War II, the attack on the Soviet Union in 1941 (quite a modern topic), (the discussion) about the number of the victims of the holocaust a. s. o.. In the seventies the late historian Martin Broszat already called that movement „run- ning amok against reality“ (Broszat 1976). These pseudo-historical writers, many of them just right wing extremist publishers or people who quite rapidly turned to right wing extremists, really try to prove that history has not taken place, just as if they were able to make events undone by denying them. A conception of “negationism” (Auerbach 1993a; Fromm and Kernbach 1994, p. 9; Landesamt für Verfassungsschutz 1994) or “holocaust denial” (Lipstadt 1993, p. 20) would neglect the additional components of “revision- ism”, which are logically connected with the denying of the holocaust, this being the extreme variant.

  • Otto Ernst Remer Von Dr
    Otto Ernst Remer von Dr. Claudia Fröhlich Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität Hannover 1. Prozessgeschichte Drei Tage vor der Landtagswahl in Niedersachsen, am 3. Mai 1951, hielt Otto Ernst Remer, der zweite Vorsitzende der rechtsextremen Sozialistischen Reichspartei (SRP), in Braunschweig eine öffentliche Wahlkampfrede. Wie schon mehrmals zuvor, diffamierte Remer auch in dieser Rede die Widerstandskämpfer des 20. Juli 1944. Er sagte: „Diese Verschwörer sind zum Teil in starkem Maße Landesverräter gewesen, die vom Ausland bezahlt wurden.“ Remers Rede markierte den Höhepunkt einer Anfang der 1950er Jahre breiten Verratskampagne gegen Claus Graf Schenk von Stauffenberg und die Männer des Widerstands, die am 20. Juli 1944 versucht hatten, Hitler durch ein Bombenattentat in der Wolfsschanze zu töten und die Herrschaft des Nationalsozialismus zu beenden. Neben den in der SRP versammelten ehem. Nationalsozialisten verleumdeten Vertreter der Deutschen Partei (DP), wie der Bundestagsabgeordnete Wolfgang Hedler, und Funktionäre der Verbands deutscher Soldaten (VdS) die Widerstandskämpfer als Verräter. Auch westdeutsche Gerichte kamen mehrfach zu dem Ergebnis, Widerstand gegen den NS-Staat sei nicht rechtmäßig, sondern Verrat gewesen. So stellte das Landgericht München I 1951 fest, die „Standgerichtsverfahren“ gegen die Regimegegner Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Wilhelm Canaris, Hans von Dohnanyi, Karl Sack, Hans Oster und Ludwig Gehre hätten das „gerichtliche Gesicht gewahrt“. Nach damals geltendem Recht hätten die Widerstandskämpfer den Tatbestand des Hoch- und Landesverrats erfüllt. (vgl. Perels; Spendel) Der 1951 in Braunschweig amtierende Generalstaatsanwalt Fritz Bauer beobachtete die politischen Kampagnen gegen die Regimegegner und die Entlegitimierung ihres Handelns durch westdeutsche Gerichte mit großer Sorge. Der Widerstand gegen den NS-Staat habe das 1 immer gültige Recht des Bürgers realisiert, gegen staatliches Unrecht aufzubegehren.

Estos “negacionistas” son, en realidad, publicistas de extrema derecha, neonazis, islamistas integristas, etc. Los “negacionistas” afirman que el Holocausto nunca ocurrió y que la cifra de judíos muertos (más de seis millones) se ha exagerado. Entre los “negacionistas” nos encontramos con Paul Rassinier, Robert Farausson, David Irving, Roger Garaudy (después de haberse convertido al Islam, a raiz de su matrimonio con una palestina y hacerse llamar Regaa Garaudy), el líder iraní Mahmud Ahdmadinejad, el neonazi catalán Pedro Varela Geiss y el obispo católico integrista ultraconservador Richard Williamson.

    www.doew.at Anton Maegerle / Heribert Schiedel Krude Allianz Das arabisch-islamistische Bündnis mit deutschen und österreichischen Rechtsextremisten Neues von ganz rechts, November 2001 „Die Deutschen wissen, wie man es macht, um die Juden loszuwerden.“ (M. A. al-Husseini, Mufti von Jerusalem, 1943 bewundernd in Berlin) Seit den Terrorakten gegen die USA wird über mögliche Vernetzungen zwi- schen deutschsprachigen Rechtsextremisten und islamistischen Fundamentalis- ten spekuliert. Denn die von klerikalfaschistischen Islamisten verursachten Ter- rorszenarien in New York und Washington könnten in ihrer Dramaturgie auch einem braunen Drehbuch entstammen. New York „in Schutt und Asche legen“ wollte kurz vor dem Ende der NS- Herrschaft Reichsführer SS Heinrich Himmler. „Die Amerikaner“, so Himmler, „müssen auch etwas vom Krieg zu spüren bekommen.“ Der „psychologische Effekt wäre enorm. Ich bin überzeugt, dass es die Amerikaner nicht ertragen könnten, in ihrem eigenen Land angegriffen zu werden.“ Adolf Hitler selbst fällte im März 1941 die Bemerkung, man müsse mit Terrorangriffen auf ameri- kanische Millionenstädte „den Juden“ eine „Lektion“ erteilen. Und gegenüber Albert Speer malte er „wie in einem Delirium sich und uns den Untergang New Yorks in Flammenstürmen“ aus.

Die Zahl rechtsextremistisch motivierter Straftaten ist im vergangenen Jahr drastisch gestiegen, eine Vielzahl von Aufmärschen und anderen Aktivitäten vor allem von neonazisti- schen Gruppierungen haben Erschrecken, Empörung und Protest hervor- gerufen. Auch eine weltoffene und liberale Stadt wie Hamburg ist gegen rechtsextremistisches Treiben offensichtlich nicht gefeit, sie muss sich damit auseinandersetzen und ihm energisch entgegentreten. Zwar ist der Staat bei der Bekämpfung des Rechtsextremismus in einer besonderen Pflicht - er hat die ihm zur Verfügung stehenden Möglichkei- ten von Repression und Prävention auszuschöpfen -, sein Handeln kann jedoch nur dann nachhaltige Erfolge haben, wenn es von einer breiten gesellschaftlichen Unterstützung getragen wird. Rechtsextremisten ha- ben nur dort eine Chance, wo es an demokratischem Engagement fehlt. Organisations- und Versammlungsverbote, die Verfolgung von Strafta- ten und die Beschlagnahme hasserfüllter CDs, Gefährderansprachen und Aussteigerprogramme sind notwendige Maßnahmen, um die Aktions- räume von Neonazis einzugrenzen. Dass ihre menschenverachtenden Pa- rolen nicht wieder verfangen und zumal junge Menschen verführen, be- darf darüber hinaus umfassender gesellschaftlicher Anstrengungen. Hier- für gibt es auch in Hamburg viele gute Beispiele. Wer sich engagieren will, braucht Informationen.

    MS 413 (B) The Ian Kershaw Archive University of Sheffield Library. Special Collections and Archives Ref: MS 413 (A), MS 413 (B) Title: The Ian Kershaw Archive Scope: Research material of Professor Ian Kershaw relating to his research on the social history of 20th Century Germany, the Third Reich and Nazism, and medieval history. Dates: 1933-2008 Level: Fonds Extent: 36 boxes (MS 413 (A)); 118 boxes (MS 413 (B)) Name of creator: Ian Kershaw Administrative / biographical history: A collection of material from various archives compiled by Professor Sir Ian Kershaw, historian, author and university academic, covering the social history of twentieth- century Germany, and Nazism and the Third Reich. MS 413 (B) also contains research material in medieval history. Ian Kershaw was born in Oldham, Lancashire in 1943. He was educated at Counthill Grammar School and St Bede's College, Manchester, before studying for a BA in History at the University of Liverpool. He followed this with a DPhil at Merton College, Oxford, editing a manuscript of the accounts of Bolton Priory in the late 15th and early 16th century, and producing his thesis Bolton Priory, 1286-1325: an economic study in 1969. Following his time at Oxford, Professor Kershaw took a post as lecturer in medieval history at the University of Manchester. He began learning German to assist in his research of the German peasantry in the Middle Ages. As his language skills improved he became increasingly interested in what was happening in Germany and how it was coping with the legacy of the Second World War. On a visit to West Germany in 1972 he encountered an aging Nazi who remarked that 'if you English had come in with us, we'd have destroyed Bolshevism' and that 'the Jew is a louse'.
