Research Abstract |
The structure of the so-called "PARALYSIS" of the German people at the end of the second world war can be only understood through multilateral analysis. As the factors of psychological conditions, we must seize the essence of important historical preconditions. Many researches on this theme disregarded the decisive roles of the first World War, the defeat of Germany and the November Revolution. Many researches overestimated the role of Hitler. But the core of the Hitler's ideology was "voelkisch", ultra-nationalism, which was hardened by the first world war, the Versailles and the policies of the imperial big countries, British empire, USA,France, and Japan. Through the eyes of ultra-nationalism many peoples in Germany supported the Hitler's "Machtpolitik", his war policies. Daniel Goldhagen disregard this ultra-nationalism and overestimated the factors of the anti-Semitism in Germany. Holocaust was determined through the ultra-nationalism, and the crisis of the German war efforts. We have investigated intensively the correlation of the "winter crisis", the globalization of the war 1941-1942 and the "Final solution of the Jewish Question". We have criticized the these of Masaru Kurihara, Professor of the Kobe University. Many documents tears the Kurihara's argument that Hitler ordered before August 15.1941, "kill all jews in Europe".
