Opis

Using wartime records and postwar West German and Soviet investigative materials, this book probes the local dynamics of the German occupation and the collaboration in the Holocaust in southern Ukraine. Through the lens of a regional study, it contributes to recent scholarly interest in the Holocaust in the Soviet Union.

Recenzje

'Steinhart has written an engaging, highly illuminating study of the relationship between the ideologues of the Third Reich and the complex reality they encountered on the ground as they attempted to remake eastern Europe into a racially ordered imperium founded on genocide.' Paul Moore, H-Nationalism
