Presentation Transcript

  1. Just how much of the terrorist movement – which after all blossomed out of a sincere attempt by students in West Germany to change the rigidly conservative structure of the university system, a throwback from the Nazi period with many old Nazis still at the lectern – was a direct reaction to silence about the Nazi past? The conference will examine this question on various different levels: it will address the radical response to conservatism in the 1970s, the disconnect between the violent actions of the RAF and the lingering elements of Nazism in society and government, terrorism as a response to the silence of the perpetrator generation, the harsh crackdown and stiff sentences that terrorists received in comparison to Nazis on trial at the same time, and larger questions of the influence of the endless Nazi past on the 1970s and 1980s. • Karin Bauer • (McGill University) • Annette Vowinkel • (The Institute for Contemporary • History , Potsdam) • Karrin Henshew • (Michigan State University) • Thomas Pegelow Kaplan • (Davidson College ) Nazism and Terrorism: Violent Responses to the Dark Past in Postwar West GermanyMonday, December 5, 2011, 9:00 am-5:00 pm Sponsored by the Centre for European, Russian, and Eurasian Studies, the DAAD, the Joint Initiative in German and European Studies, The Department of History, The Chancellor Rose and Ray Wolfe Chair in Holocaust Studies, The Center for Jewish Studies, the Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures, and the Department of Historical Studies (UTM).
