[ send me this paper ]
Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust: This 6 page report discusses these two books and compares their differing premises regarding the actions taken (or not taken) by “ordinary” German citizens during the Holocaust. Browning’s premise was that circumstances such as peer pressure, career promotion, and the mindless conformity of society led large numbers of common, everyday people to participate in murdering the Jews of Europe.
