Description
This article argues that Goldhagen's view that Germans were willing executioners with a Jew killing mania is incorrect. It argues that anti-Semitism is not limited to the 19th and 20th centuries, but has existed in every generation in every country in Europe. It discusses the fact that some were perpetrators and helpers, but there was a courageous minority who helped.
