Abstract:
Discusses differing attitudes towards the Jews of three factions in the Nazi leadership and bureaucracy. The first (e.g. Walter Gross, Bernhard Lösener) proposed the elimination of Jews from political and cultural life, but allowed them to participate in the economy. The second consisted of antisemitic mystics and race theoreticians, centered around Alfred Rosenberg. The third was led by the pathological Jew-haters Streicher (from 1933) and Goebbels (from 1935), and their propaganda in "Der Stürmer". Most of the SS leaders were close to the Rosenberg group. Describes the background to radicalization of Nazi policy in 1938, the struggle between Himmler and Goebbels, instigator of the "Kristallnacht" pogroms, and the gradual radicalization of the SS. Traces the development of emigration policy after 1938, and anti-Jewish measures from the outbreak of war to the Final Solution, carried out by the SS on Hitler's orders.
