Christopher Browning’s “Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion
101” and Daniel Goldhagen’s “Hitler’s Willing Executioners
[ 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. On the
other hand, Goldhagen claims that the well-established German
tradition of an “eliminationist ideal” resulted in a type of
anti-Semitism that was, in his opinion, a solely “German
pathology.” No other sources.
