Description
367 p.; 22 cm.
Summary
The guilt complex of contemporary Germans is attributed to two factors: crimes committed during the Nazi regime, and their denial and repression. Analyzes the psychological causes of the latter, contending that true denazification has not yet occurred. Describes efforts made to minimize or deny the Holocaust. Pp. 342-352, "Ist Auschwitz Vergleichbar?", restates arguments raised in the "historians' debate". States that Germans have no right to criticize Zionism and Israel or to compare them to Nazism.
