The works gathered consider sexual violence, food deprivation, and forced labor as aspects of Nazi aggression. Contributors focus in particular on the Holocaust, the persecution of the Sinti and Roma, the eradication of "useless eaters" (psychiatric patients and Soviet prisoners of war), and the crimes of the Wehrmacht. The collection concludes with a consideration of memorialization and a comparison of Soviet and Nazi mass crimes. While it has been over 70 years since the fall of the Nazi regime, the full extent of the ways violence was used against prisoners of war and civilians is only now coming to be fully understood.Mass Violence in Nazi-Occupied Europe provides new insight into the scale of the violence suffered and brings fresh urgency to the need for a deeper understanding of this horrific moment in history.World War, 1939-1945AtrocitiesGermanyViolenceEuropeHistory20th centuryWorld War, 1939-1945AtrocitiesEuropeHistory20th centuryWorld War, 1939-1945AtrocitiesViolenceHistoryWorld War, 1939-1945Atrocities.940.5405Stahel David1975-Kay Alex J.MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910796953103321Mass violence in Nazi-occupied Europe2863951UNINA$39.9910/18/2019Hist
