Sommario/riassunto

Horst Mahler was undoubtedly one of the most important protagonists of the protest movement of the 1960s. His "turn out" as a neo-Nazi and Holocaust denier in the 1990s and 2000s has kept the public busy to this day. In addition to all discontinuities, there are also continuous elements in Mahler's biography, including in the fragments of ideology (structural) anti-Semitism and anti-Americanism and in his attempts to ward off German guilt after 1945.Horst Mahler was one of the most important participants of the German student movement during the late 1960s. In the 1990s he bacame a radical National socialist and holocaust denier. This conversion still bothers the German public. There are however ideological continuities in Mahler's worldview: structural anti-semitism, anti-Americanism and repetitive attempts to refuse guilt feelings about the holocaust.
