This is a comprehensive collection of readings from the work of Theodor Adorno, one of the most influential German thinkers of the twentieth century. What took place in Auschwitz revokes what Adorno termed the & Western legacy of positivity,& the innermost substance of traditional philosophy. The prime task of philosophy then remains to reflect on its own failure, its own complicity in such events. Yet in linking the question of philosophy to historical occurrence, Adorno seems not to have abandoned his paradoxical, life-long hope that philosophy might not be entirely closed to the idea of redemption. He prepares for an altogether different praxis, one no longer conceived in traditionally Marxist terms but rather to be gleaned from & metaphysical experience.& In this collection, Adorno's literary executor has assembled the definitive introduction to his thinking. Its five sections anatomize the range of Adorno's concerns: & Toward a New Categorical Imperative,& & Damaged Life,& & Administered World, Reified Thought,& & Art, Memory of Suffering,& and & A Philosophy That Keeps Itself Alive.& A substantial number of Adorno's writings included appear here in English for the first time. This collection comes with an eloquent introduction from Rolf Tiedemann, the literary executor of Adorno's work.

Bei der nationalsozialistischen Mordpolitik gegen die Juden kam es in allen Teilen des besetzten Europas zur unheilvollen Verknüpfung von Kollaboration und Völkermord. Auch ohne fremde Hilfe hätte die Shoah singuläre Dimensionen angenommen, doch erhöhten die Zuarbeit und Mithilfe einheimischer Bürokraten, Polizisten und antisemitischer Aktivisten die Effizienz der deutschen Täter. Nicht immer ging die Initiative vor Ort allein von den Deutschen aus. Die Kenntnis über diesen gewichtigen Aspekt der Holocaustgeschichte ist noch fragmentarisch, wird in jüngster Zeit aber durch neue Forschungen erheblich erweitert. Dieser Band führt exemplarische Länderstudien zusammen und richtet den Blick gleichermaßen auf den Westen wie den Osten Europas. Wassili Grossmans Reportage "Ukraine ohne Juden" aus dem Jahr 1943 ergänzt die Untersuchungen um ein eindrucksvolles Zeitzeugnis.

Few essays about the Holocaust are better known or more important than Primo Levi's reflections on what he called "the gray zone," a reality in which moral ambiguity and compromise were pronounced. In this volume accomplished Holocaust scholars, among them Raul Hilberg, Gerhard L. Weinberg, Christopher Browning, Peter Hayes, and Lynn Rapaport, explore the terrain that Levi identified. Together they bring a necessary interdisciplinary focus to bear on timely and often controversial topics in cutting-edge Holocaust studies that range from historical analysis to popular culture. While each ess

Über die Zahl der ermordeten Juden wird seit dem Ende des NS-Staates diskutiert, und die Dimension des Völkermordes wird unter apologetischer Tendenz interessierter Kreise immer noch in Frage gestellt. Einer mathematisch-exakten Beweisführung, die in der Feststellung genauer Zahlenangaben münden würde, stehen erhebliche methodische Schwierigkeiten gegenüber, die gewöhnlich unterschätzt, aber als Beweis für vermutete politische Absichten oder für die Unfähigkeit der Historiker gerne benutzt werden. Absicht dieses Bandes ist es deshalb, nicht nur streng wissenschaftlich und möglichst exakt die Zahl der jüdischen Opfer der NS-Herrschaft zu ermitteln, sondern auch die Probleme aufzuzeigen, die der Bestimmung einer absoluten Zahl der Opfer entgegenstehen. Die hier anhand einer regional gegliederten Darlegung der gesicherten Erkenntnisse gezogene Bilanz ermittelt die Größenordnung des Völkermords jenseits aller Spekulationen.
