In Hitler's shadow : West German historians and the attempt to escape from the Nazi past / Richard J. Evans. 1st ed.

The burden of guilt -- "Asiatic deeds" -- Bulwark against Bolshevism? -- Auschwitz and elsewhere -- Reshaping Central Europe -- Germany and the west. This book is a study of recent attempts by some West German historians to free the German conscience from guilt about its Nazi past. These new revisionists argue that Germans have no more to be ashamed of than other peoples: Auschwitz, they say, does not stand alone in history; it was merely one of a number of similar crimes, from Stalin's purges to the mass murders committed by Pol Pot. The German army was not trying to impose a genocidal dictatorship; it was fighting to prevent a Communist takeover of Europe. - Back cover. Germany History 1933-1945 Historiography.
