Abstract:

This article explores the myriad ways that Polish and Ukrainian residents engaged in violent and cruel behavior during World War II through a case study of the Chełm region. Under Nazi occupation, this formerly peaceful community exploded into a horrific scene of nationalist and popular violence. Jews were widely assaulted by their Polish and Ukrainian countrymen; Poles and Ukrainians engaged in mutual killings and ethnic cleansing; rural villagers were subjected to countless raids from area partisans; and escaped Soviet POWs were often denounced or otherwise attacked by area residents. Treating this outbreak as a whole, I argue that anti-Jewish violence was embedded in a vicious social transformation that engendered an array of crimes against multiple groups. By interweaving the fates of different ethnicities into a single study, my paper contextualizes Polish complicity during the Holocaust and highlights the sordid interactions between the German invaders, Jewish citizens, and local Christian society.

Abstract:

The Auschwitz concentration camp was established in 1940. It was the largest Nazi concentration camp situated on the territory of the occupied Poland. It was also an extermination camp of the prisoners incarcerated there. The Jews and the Poles were the largest national groups which were confined to the Nazi camp in Auschwitz. In January of 1945, the Auschwitz camp was liberated by the Red Army. The following article is based on the archives of Cracow Magistrate’s Court from 1946 until 1950 which are accompanied by the prisoner correspondence from the Nazi death camp in Auschwitz.

Abstract:

The article describes the legal status of Poles residing within the territories occupied by Nazi Germany or areas incorporated into the Third Reich during the Second World War. The author points to the examples of the limitations placed on Poles in access to goods and services, including transport, healthcare, and cultural institutions. Furthermore, he reminds us of the orders and prohibitions derived from civil, administrative, and labour laws which were imposed on Poles. The author emphasises some significant differences between the Nazi occupation in Poland and in other European countries. As a result, he advocates the conduct of new research on the issue of the real situation of Poles in various occupied regions administered by the authorities of the Third Reich.

Abstract:

During the Second World War, the Nazi regime sent thousands of German women to occupied Poland to work with the ethnic German population, comprising native ethnic Germans and resettlers from the Baltic states, eastern Poland and Romania. They were to be trained to act as model colonisers for the newly conquered territories. Meanwhile the non-German population was subjugated and terrorised. This article examines what German women witnessed in Poland and how far they can be seen as complicit in acts of violence and injustice committed against Poles and Jews. To what extent did a gendered division of labour prevent women actively being involved in or witnessing acts committed against the Polish and Jewish populations? Did a construct of ‘womanly work’ help women to ‘look away’ from the evidence of oppression and persecution?

Abstract:

This article analyzes the process of creating the German camp system in Poland. The Nazi racial politics towards the Jews promoted their isolation from the so-called "full part of society". For this purpose, two main mechanisms for their separation were created: concentration camps, some of which were transformed into "factories of death", and Jewish ghettos. The establishment of concentration camps in Poland was preceded by a long process of organizational and legal registration first in Germany itself, and later on the territories occupied by it. This process was accompanied by numerous Jewish pogroms and arrests, which was an integral part of the Nazi anti-Semitic policy. Concentration camps were carefully thought out and well-organized institutions with a refined mechanism of prisoners’ maintenance, coercion and punishment. Different by their intended purpose were "death camps" that were not intended to hold prisoners, but to destroy them quickly and in large scale. Most of them were located on the territory of Poland, where the Jews from all over Europe were brought. These included Chelmno, Belzec, Sobibor, Treblinka, Auschwitz-Birkenau and Maydanek. It was observed in the article that German concentration camps were created to isolate, repress and destroy the undesirable elements of the regime. Despite the early formation of this system, its dissemination in the territories occupied by the Nazis, particularly in Poland, took place in 1938-1939s. At that time the German concentration camps turned into an instrument of ruthless anti-Semitic policy that became a classic genocide. Due to the fact that the concentration camps capacities did not allow to sufficiently fulfill their tasks, during 1939-1945s in Poland, new, so-called "death camps" were established. They were equipped with gas chambers and crematorium that carried out large-scale destruction of the Jews.

Abstract:

AbstractSexual policies were a core component of the National Socialist racial policies, both in the Altreich (territories considered part of Nazi Germany before 1938), as well as in the occupied territories. In occupied Poland the Germans imposed a ‘prohibition of contact’ (Umgangsverbot) with the local Polish population, a restriction that covered both social as well as sexual encounters. But this model of absolute racial segregation was never truly implemented. This paper attempts to show that there existed a wide range of sexual contacts between the occupiers and the local inhabitants, with the focus here being on consensual and forced contacts (sexual violence) as seen against the backdrop of National Socialist policies. This article positions itself at the intersection of the history of everyday life (Alltagsgeschichte), the history of sexuality and the gender history of the German occupation of Poland – perspectives that have rarely been used with regard to this region.

Abstract:

This thesis analyses seven translated and published diaries, written by young Jewish women, living in different ghettos and towns in Nazi-occupied Poland, through the theoretical lenses of history, genre and gender. The selected diaries, some recently published, and others not yet studied by scholars, are limited to those written in Poland, home to the largest pre-war Jewish population in Europe and the epicentre of the Holocaust. The centrality of Poland to the Holocaust highlights the significance of the spatial and temporal context of this selection of diaries. In addition, this thesis traces the complex trajectory of the diary from private journal to public document, examining the journey from manuscript to publication, including the provenance, translation and reception of the diaries. The investigation of the provenance validates the diaries as primary source documents. The analysis of publishing strategies offers insights into how diaries are framed and mediated, and how this mediation influences reception. This study frames a qualitative thematic analysis and close reading of the texts that reveal key themes, patterns and motifs. Three significant themes emerge from the texts: firstly, the diaries bear witness to the events of the Holocaust, serving as valuable primary source documents that augment the existing historical record; secondly, the act of diary writing functions as a means of self-preservation; and, thirdly, these texts provide a means to understand and document the experience of coming of age in captivity. These intensely personal and subjective accounts of young Jewish women offer a gendered perspective of a vulnerable and hitherto neglected group of victims. When considered together, this tripartite analysis provides the original contribution of this thesis—a new perspective on the events of the Holocaust gained through the voices of adolescent females—thereby extending our understanding of this period of history.

Abstract:

This chapter showcases the accounts of child survivors in Nazi-occupied Poland, as written in The Last Eyewitnesses. The accounts all follow a similar format, beginning with a discussion of pre-war family background, continuing with harrowing tales of wartime survival, and concluding with a section on the survivor’s experiences in post-war Poland. The consistent format makes the collection a particularly useful tool for scholarly analysis as well as for classroom use. The testimonies depict the life of Jewish children from all regions of inter-war Poland, both urban and rural, in a wide variety of settings in Nazi-occupied Poland: in hiding, in ghettos, in the camps, in the forests. In addition, a full range of family backgrounds is represented, from those who came from assimilated families and had been raised in a Polish milieu to those from Yiddish-speaking Orthodox backgrounds.

Abstract:

This chapter reviews an article by David Cymet, entitled ‘Polish State Antisemitism as a Major Factor Leading to the Holocaust’. The article was published in Britain in the Journal of Genocide Research. The chapter considers a number of peculiarities and mistakes present in the article. It questions the sources drawn by the article to expound its thesis. Moreover, the chapter analyses the article's thesis that the views and deeds of Polish antisemites influenced the Nazi policy of genocide in Germany, occupied Poland, and other countries. It argues that the German authorities in occupied Poland were not under the influence of Poles. Indeed, while there were rare cases of individual Polish politicians offering to co-operate with Germany against the Soviet Union, these proposals met with no response.

Abstract:

What explains the anti-Jewish pogroms of summer 1941 that broke out in the eastern borderlands of Soviet-occupied Poland in the wake of the Nazi invasion? This chapter introduces the competing theories and approaches to the problem. Most scholars highlight either revenge for the Soviet occupation, antisemitic hatred, avarice, or the German extermination effort itself. The authors offer an alternative hypothesis rooted primarily in the logic of competing nationalisms. Where Jews sought national equality with their Polish and Ukrainian neighbors, they were more likely to fall victim to pogrom violence.

Abstract:

This introductory chapter provides an overview of how Poland was one of the principal areas where the Nazis attempted to carry out their planned genocide of European Jewry. It was there that the major death camps were established and that Jews were brought from all over Nazi-occupied Europe to be gassed, above all in Auschwitz, where at least 1 million lost their lives in this way. There is no more controversial topic in the history of the Jews in Poland than the question of the degree of responsibility borne by Polish society for the fact that such a small proportion of Polish Jewry escaped the Nazi mass murderers. The primary responsibility clearly lies with the Nazis. However, the recognition of the primary role of the Germans in the genocide has not prevented bitter arguments over Polish behaviour during the Second World War. Jews have harshly criticized what they see as Polish indifference to the fate of the Jews and the willingness of a minority to aid the Nazis or to take advantage of the new conditions to profit at Jewish expense.

Abstract:

This chapter looks at how, during the Second World War, Mennonite leaders had assisted Hitler's empire building in Ukraine and Poland. As narratives of genetic purity and pioneering temperament became associated with racial superiority, the confession became a tool of Nazi colonialism. Whether it's the supposed suffering of Ukraine's settlers under “Judeo-Bolshevism” or the legendary yields of farmers in the American West, images of Mennonitism abetted National Socialists' quest for “living space” and the Holocaust of European Jews. As Nazi leaders constructed the East as a new frontier, they conceived the occupied territories as racial spaces in which some groups deserved access to land while others did not. Millions of Jews as well as Russian, Ukrainian, and Polish speakers lost their property and often their lives so that “ethnic Germans” could flourish.

Abstract:

This chapter evaluates when and how the outside world came to know about the Nazi genocide during the Second World War. In Sweden, there has been considerable public and private debate on this question centred on a document from August of 1942, known as the Vendel Report, which contains a description of the situation in Germany and in German-occupied Poland. Karl Yngve Vendel, a 45-year-old officer of the Swedish consular corps, was transferred in January of 1940 from Holland and appointed as consul in Stettin. Vendel's principal assignment was to gather intelligence. Sweden feared German aggression, a justified fear, for only several months later Germany was to attack Denmark and Norway and conquer them easily. Vendel's account was one of the first revelations of the scale of the Nazi genocide to be sent to the West.

Abstract:

This chapter focuses on those Jews who used false Aryan identification papers during the Nazi occupation of Poland. Many towns and cities in occupied Poland were divided into crowded ghettos of displaced Jews and the more fortunate Aryan districts. When it became obvious what was to happen to the ghetto inhabitants, Jews began to flee to Aryan districts. Some Poles provided security and housing to both known and unknown Jews. While some Polish Jews survived on forged documents, others remained in hiding without identification papers, unable to leave their hiding-places. Using Aryan documents successfully meant assuming another identity. Assuming a false identity strongly influences one's own sense of identity, which is necessary for retaining one's sense of individuality, continuity, and mental fitness. As such, the use of false Aryan documents created many complicated psychological problems.
