Negotiating the Paradoxical BindBibliographyIndexThe Nazis' persecution of the Jews during the Holocaust included the creation of prisoner hierarchies that forced victims to cooperate with their persecutors. Many in the camps and ghettos came to hold so-called "privileged" positions, and their behavior has often been judged as self-serving and harmful to fellow inmates. Such controversial figures constitute an intrinsically important, frequently misunderstood, and often taboo aspect of the Holocaust. Drawing on Primo Levi's concept of the "grey zone," this study analyzes the passing of moral judgment on "privileged" Jews as represented by wWar and GenocideHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) -- InfluenceHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) -- Moral and ethical aspectsLevi, Primo -- Criticism and interpretationWorld War, 1939-1945 -- Collaborationists -- Moral and ethical aspectsHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) -- Influence.Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) -- Moral and ethical aspects.Levi, Primo -- Criticism and interpretation.World War, 1939-1945 -- Collaborationists -- Moral and ethical aspects.940.53940.5318Brown Adam1982-974432AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910268955003321Judging ''Privileged'' Jews2218434UNINA
