| Research Abstract |
Japanese historians have mainly analyzed the Nazi's policy about the Jews in Germany and Europe and directed their attentions not enough to the attitudes of German Jews toward Nazis.
In this research I tried to explain the reason, why many German Jews didn't emigrate early in time from Germany, through the analyses of the identity of two German Jewish conservative organizations ; the Reichsbund juedischer Frontsoldaten (RjF) and the Deutscher Vortrupp (DV). The year of 1935 was the decisive one for RjF and DV. Their wish, that the patriots of German Jews could be integrated into the new German Volksgemeinschaft, was denied by the Wehrgesetz and the Nuerunberger Laws. Nevertheless H.-J. Schoeps, the chairman of the DV, calculated the possibility of the existence of Jews in Germany because of the relatively stable situation in 1936. The RjF, though it had to take the emigration-policy as its activity, tried to promote the emigration of German Jews to the countries outside Palestine and to maintain their identity as Germans consecutively. The Reichskristallnacht pogrom of 1938 broke their illusion after all.
In future I will analyze also the attitudes of the Jews in the mixed marriage, Christians of Jewish descent, and so-called Jewish Mischlinge in the Third Reich.
