Cambodian Women and the Khmer Rouge
[ send me this paper ]
This 7 page report
discusses the genocide that took place in Cambodia during the
totalitarian regime of the Khmer Rouge in 1975-1979. Various
empirical studies reported that Cambodian women experienced the
most extensive trauma. These women were victims of physical
violence, often of a sexual nature, perpetrated by their fellow
citizens. They were exposed to multiple forms of emotional abuse,
torture, and forced labor. Many witnessed the deaths or
executions of their husbands, and most lost at least one, and
often several, of their children. Extended kinship networks, so
much a part of their cultural heritage and their everyday
functioning, were destroyed. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Christopher Browning's "Ordinary Men:" Why, When Given A Choice, Did The Vast Majority Of Men In The Reserve Police Battalion 101 Opt To Participate In The Nazi Genocide?
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Christopher Browning's "Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland" discusses the reactive nature of men who are under the mental, emotional and physical strain of superior orders. The extent to which members of Reserve Battalion 101 opted to participate in the Nazi genocide, despite the fact they were given a choice, speaks volumes regarding the overwhelming influence Hitler had over ordinary men � artisans and working class police reservists untrained for such atrocities � who would otherwise never consider killing another human being. No additional sources cited.

Christopher Browning�s �Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion
101� and Daniel Goldhagen�s �Hitler�s Willing Executioners
[ send me this paper ]
Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust: This 6 page report discusses
these two books and compares their differing premises regarding
the actions taken (or not taken) by �ordinary� German citizens
during the Holocaust. Browning�s premise was that circumstances
such as peer pressure, career promotion, and the mindless
conformity of society led large numbers of common, everyday
people to participate in murdering the Jews of Europe. On the
other hand, Goldhagen claims that the well-established German
tradition of an �eliminationist ideal� resulted in a type of
anti-Semitism that was, in his opinion, a solely �German
pathology.� No other sources.

Comparison of Heinrich Heine and Gunter Grass
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing classic
works by these German authors. Both Heine and Grass portray a dark and nearly hopeless
Germany in their works. Heine's Deutschland, a Winter's Tale is older than Grass' The Tin
Drum by more than 100 years, a century in which Germany rose to command world
attention twice. Grass portrays a Germany with much similarity to that of Heine's time.
Heine was threatening and ominous in much of his epic-length verse. He was able to see
ahead on Germany's then-current path; Grass looked back along that path in the other
direction. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
