    www.doew.at – Dokumentationsarchiv des österreichischen Widerstandes (Hrsg.), Forschungen zum Natio- nalsozialismus und dessen Nachwirkungen in Österreich. Festschrift für Brigitte Bailer, Wien 2012 91 Peter Black Odilo Globocnik, Nazi Eastern Policy, and the Implementation of the Final Solution During the spring of 1943, while on an inspection tour of occupied Poland that included a briefing on the annihilation of the Polish Jews, SS Personnel Main Office chief Maximilian von Herff characterized Lublin District SS and Police Leader and SS-Gruppenführer Odilo Globocnik, in the following way: “A man fully charged with all possible light and dark sides. Little concerned with ap- pearances, fanatically obsessed with the task, [he] engages himself to the limit without concern for health or superficial recognition. His energy drives him of- ten to breach existing boundaries and to forget the boundaries established for him within the [SS-] Order – not out of personal ambition, but much more for the sake of his obsession with the matter at hand. His success speaks unconditionally for him.”1 Von Herff’s analysis of Globocnik’s reflected a consistent pattern in the ca- reer of the Nazi Party organizer and SS officer, who characteristically atoned for his transgressions of the National Socialist code of behavior by fanatical pursuit and implementation of core Nazi goals.2 Globocnik was born to Austro-Croat parents on April 21, 1904 in multina- tional Trieste, then the principal seaport of the Habsburg Monarchy. His father’s family had come from Neumarkt (Tržič), in Slovenia. Franz Globocnik served as a Habsburg cavalry lieutenant and later a senior postal official; he died of pneumonia on December 1, 1919.

  • Microfilming of German Records in the National Archives
    Microfilming of German Records in the National Archives Downloaded from http://meridian.allenpress.com/american-archivist/article-pdf/22/4/433/2744001/aarc_22_4_w1073t07648j510q.pdf by guest on 27 September 2021 By DAGMAR HORNA PERMAN * American Historical Association ELDOM are historians suddenly given access to documentary material covering all aspects of a nation's life during a whole S era. Yet this is the opportunity now afforded to historians in America. Within a short time they will have available documents of the Hitler era in Germany reflecting its origins, causes, ad- ministrative system, philosophy, policies, military system, propa- ganda, and almost every other imaginable feature of significance or interest. For in the National Archives, every month, hundreds of rolls of microfilm are added to the growing collection of material pertaining to Nazi rule. Nor is the material concerned with Germany alone. Vast num- bers of the documents relate to military operations of the Germans outside their borders and to the civilian and military exploitation of conquered and occupied nations. Not only historians concentrating on Germany, therefore, but also those whose primary interests are Russia, Southeastern Europe, France, Italy, Scandinavia, and other Western European countries, as well as the Near and Far East, will find valuable material in the collection of microfilm now being as- sembled at the National Archives. That this wealth of documenta- tion will be available on microfilm, which scholars can either use in the National Archives or purchase for reading in the comfort of their own libraries, is the result of a joint enterprise of the Ameri- can Historical Association and the United States Government.

Burgess II 1 NAZI IDEOLOGY AND THE PURSUIT OF WAR AIMS: 1941-45 by KENNETH BERNARD BURGESS II (UNDER DIRECTION OF BRIAN K. FELTMAN) ABSTRACT The purpose of this thesis is to examine what can be considered a military blunder on the part of the Nazi Germans. On June 22, 1941, Nazi Germany launched a massive invasion into the Soviet Union and Soviet territories. The political goals of Operation Barbarossa were to seize hold of the expanses of land belonging to the Soviet Union. This would serve as the foundation for increased agricultural production and the enslavement of any remaining Slavic people for the supposed greater good Germany.

  • Die SA – Bürgerkriegsarmee Und Massenorganisation
    Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung –Gesellschaftsanalyse und Politische Bildung - Seminarmaterialien Die SA – Bürgerkriegsarmee und Massenorganisation des deutschen Faschismus Dr. Reiner Zilkenat, November 2004 1 Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung –Gesellschaftsanalyse und Politische Bildung - Seminarmaterialien Die Geschichte des deutschen Faschismus ist aufs engste mit den 1920 gegründeten „Sturmabteilungen“ (SA) verknüpft. Sie waren es, die vor allem in der Zeit der Weimarer Republik, nicht zuletzt auch bei ausländischen Beobachtern, das Bild vom deutschen Faschismus prägten. Ein Bild, das gekennzeichnet war von hemmungsloser Gewaltanwendung gegenüber politischen Gegnern, einer Gewaltanwendung, die selbstverständlich auch den Mord ins Kalkül zog. Von Beginn an befanden sich Juden im Visier der SA. Vor allem der zum 1. November 1926 von Adolf Hitler eingesetzte Berliner Gauleiter, der damals neunundzwanzigjährige Germanist Dr. Joseph Goebbels, organisierte mit seinen SA – Führern Wolf Heinrich Graf von Helldorf, Kurt Daluege und Karl Ernst regelrechte Jagden auf Juden in der Berliner Innenstadt, insbesondere auf dem Kurfürstendamm.1 Seit dem großen Wahlerfolg der NSDAP am 14. September 1930, als die Nazis nach der SPD zur zweitstärksten Partei in Deutschland avanciert war, strömten immer mehr Männer, darunter nicht zuletzt junge Leute und Erwerbslose, in die Sturmabteilungen. Hier fanden sie auch die Möglichkeit, kostenlos oder gegen ein geringes Entgelt, eine warme Mahlzeit einzunehmen; in der sich seit 1929 ausbreitenden Weltwirtschaftskrise war dies für breite Schichten der Bevölkerung beinahe ein Luxus. Auch bestanden in manchen SA – Heimen Schlaf- und Unterkunftsmöglichkeiten. Kurzum: Neben der Bereitschaft, sich im politischen Kampf als gewaltbereiter Saal- und Straßenkämpfer zu betätigen, existierten durchaus auch handfeste materielle Interessen, die es für manchen in einer Zeit voller Not und Elend durchaus attraktiv erscheinen ließ, Mitglied der SA zu werden.

  • 1 Auxiliary Police Units in the Occupied Soviet Union, 1941-43: A
    Auxiliary Police Units in the Occupied Soviet Union, 1941-43: A Case Study of the Holocaust in Gomel, Belarus “…the corpses lay with their faces on the dirt. Hands on their heads. One woman lay in a way that showed she had been kneeling, and she fell over her baby. There were four identifiable corpses that revealed a bloody wound on their heads. It was established that they were not old bullet wounds, but it was clear that they and the baby had been murdered; with what extraneous object remains unclear. It was clear that people had been beaten with heavy objects and had then been (disorderly dumped) in a hole. One boy had clearly been buried alive. The corpses were in underwear, without clothes.” 1 This statement, given by Ivan Abramovich on January 16, 1944, was part of the ‘Soviet Extraordinary State Commission to Investigate Fascist Crimes Committed by the Invaders and their Accomplices on Soviet Territory’ during an investigation of German crimes in Gomel, Belorussia. The Soviet regime conducted similar investigations and hearings throughout areas formerly occupied by the Germans in an effort to understand precisely what horrors had occurred beyond the front lines. As the investigations progressed, they learned that the scope of the crimes was tremendously large. Even more disturbing, however, was the discovery that locals across Lithuania, Belorussia and Ukraine were deeply implicated, principally through service in auxiliary police units that openly collaborated with the German forces and participated in atrocities at almost every level. Without the auxiliaries, the Nazi’s murderous intentions toward the Jewish population on the Eastern Front would not have been nearly as deadly; the role of the auxiliary police was pivotal in the Holocaust on the Eastern Front, as they provided support, manpower and critical knowledge of the local region and language to the German forces.
