Abstract
Given the extent of violence meted out during the Holocaust and a cultural obligation to counter violence the author argues that a disengaged attitude of a „bystander” is inconceivable. The third term characterizing people’s attitudes during the Holocaust – in addition to victims and perpetrators – should rather be beneficiaries or facilitators.
