[nb-NO]Description[nb-NO]

Questions are raised of Pope Pius's understanding of the responsibilities he faced as leader of the Roman Catholic Church. Rubenstein believes that too many analyses of Pope Pius XII assume that the pope either recognized or should have recognized a moral obligation to rescue Europe's Jews in so far as it was within his power to do so. Instead, Rubenstein pushes the inquiry in a different direction: did the pope have any compelling reason to recognize a moral obligation to rescue Jews? Could it even be that he regarded the elimination of Europe's Jews as a benefit for European Christendom?
