Abstract:
Discusses the phenomenon of the Paulus-Bund, an organization of Christian Germans who had Jewish ancestry, which existed from 1933 until its forced dissolution in 1939. The aim of the group was to adapt to the Nazi racist legislation of 1933, and later to the Nuremberg Laws. Within the movement, a distinction was made between "full" racial Jews and "partial" Jews. Complete loyalty to Christianity and Nazism was manifested. States that an ambivalent antisemitism is present in their early documents. Includes translations of documents of the organization.
