    Beyond Dichotomies: Representing and Rewriting Prisoner Functionaries in Holocaust Historiography Allison Ann Rodriguez A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirem ents for the degree of Master in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Christopher Browning Karen Hagemann Konrad Jarausch Abstract Allison Ann Rodriguez: Beyond Dichot omies: Representing and Rewriting Prisoner Functionaries in Holocaust Historiography (Under the Direction of Christopher Browning) This paper focuses on the representation of prisoner functionaries in the traditional historiography. Starting with Eugen K ogon, it traces the development of the “good political” versus “bad criminal.” Using prisoner and prisoner functionary testimonies, it demonstrates that this current representation is too simplistic and must be re -evaluated. Prisoner functionaries were b oth prisoners and functionaries , and wore a Janus face at all times. This meant they hurt some as they saved others - all within the confines of their limited power. The paper ends with Primo Levi’s The Gray Zone and a call for the understanding to be app lied to future works on prisoner functionaries. II Table of Contents Chapter I. Introduction. 1 II.

I contribute to existing scholarship on Negro spirituals by tracing the performances of these songs by the original Fisk Jubilee singers in 1867 to the Hall Johnson Choir’s performances in the 1920s-1930s, with a specific focus on the portrayal of Negro folk culture.

Consistent with our charter, the Panel focused on the development of recommendations for strengthening public plan funding. From my perspective, the Panel’s principal objective was to identify effective and practical recommendations for enhancing the ability of plan sponsors to keep the contractual benefit promises that they negotiated with plan participants. The timing of this undertaking was appropriate as the information considered by the Panel suggests that the financial condition of public pension trusts has weakened during the last 15 years, while its exposure to future financial and other risks has increased, possibly materially. Self-reported funded ratios, the history of sponsors’ payment of recommended contributions, greater levels of investment risk taking, and funding analyses that may not have adequately captured the changing economic outlook support this view and have been noted in the Panel’s report.
