Name:	Germany and Its Gypsies: A Post-Auschwitz Ordeal
Product Code:	0299176746
Description:	By Gilad Margalit
Product Detail:	Historian Gilad Margalit eloquently fills a tragic gap in the historical record with this sweeping examination of the plight of Gypsies in Germany before, during, and since the era of the Third Reich. Germany and Its Gypsies reveals the painful record of the official treatment of the German Gypsies, a people whose future, in the shadow of Auschwitz, remains uncertain. Margalit follows the story from the heightened racism of the nineteenth century to the National Socialist genocidal policies that resulted in the murder of most German Gypsies, from the shifting attitudes in the two Germany in 1945 through reunification and up to the present day. Drawing upon a rich variety of sources, Margalit considers the pivotal historic events, legal, arguments, debates, and changing attitudes toward the status of the German Gypsies and shines an important light upon the issue of ethnic groups and their victimization in society.
