HIST 2080 - Holocaust (3CR)


(3L) [E] This course will explore the foundations of the Third Reich beginning immediately after World War I and ending in May 1945. Among the issues that will be discussed are the economic, military and social factors that led to the rise of National Socialism, Adolf Hitler and the other members of the NSDAP hierarchy that influenced the development of political and social doctrine in Germany, the legal maneuvering that legitimized genocide, the role of the SS including concentration camp administration and mobile killing operations in the East. The process of deportation, ghettoization and liquidation of the Jews of Europe in the death camps will be a central area of emphasis.
