Conclusion: German Hegemony, State Power, and Jewish Survival. 330 $aThis book explains why more Jewish people survived in some German-occupied countries compared to others during World War II. Hollander demonstrates that collaborators sometimes played a surprising role in ensuring Jewish survival. Where high-ranking governing officials stayed in their countries and helped Nazi Germany, they could often ?trade? their loyal cooperation in military and economic affairs for inefficient or incomplete implementation of the Final Solution. And while they sometimes did this because they had sincere moral objections to Nazi policy, they also did so because deporting local Jews was politically unpopular, because they regarded it as less important than winning the war, or because deporting Jews meant that the collaborators gave up potentially profitable opportunities to exploit them. This unique book has important implications for our understanding of state-sponsored violence, international hierarchy, and genocide, and it raises harrowing moral questions about the Holocaust and the nature of political evil. 606 $aEurope$xPolitics and government 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aEurope, Central$xHistory 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945 606 $aPolitics and war 606 $aEuropean Politics 606 $aPolitical History 606 $aHistory of Germany and Central Europe 606 $aHistory of World War II and the Holocaust 606 $aMilitary and Defence Studies 615 0$aEurope$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aEurope, Central$xHistory. 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945. 615 0$aPolitics and war. 615 14$aEuropean Politics. 615 24$aPolitical History. 615 24$aHistory of Germany and Central Europe. 615 24$aHistory of World War II and the Holocaust. 615 24$aMilitary and Defence Studies. 676 $a320.94 700 $aHollander$b Ethan J$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0964652 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910148847303321 996 $aHegemony and the Holocaust$92188610 997 $aUNINA
