The continued relevance of Nazi perpetrators

Established in 1933, Dachau was the first concentration camp in Hitler’s Germany and a stronghold of the Nazi revolution. In Dachau & the SS, historian Christopher Dillon studies the men who guarded the camp. The result is a major contribution to research on Nazi perpetrators.

Senior Researcher Johannes Lang recently reviewed the book. At a time when Europe and America are once again experiencing social and political dislocations, Lang concludes, “the story of the Dachau SS has a lot to tell us.”
