2013 marked the 80th anniversary of the Nazi takeover of power and the 75th anniversary of the pogrom night known as the Kristallnacht. In Berlin many projects were organised in connection with those anniversaries, aimed at exact and multifaceted presentation of the city during the period of National Socialism. The author focuses on publications which entered the scientific circulation on that very occasion and examines to what extent their authors modify the existing findings and draw new conclusions. The article begins with a presentation of the works which show the historical panorama of everyday, social, and cultural life during 1933–1945, followed by a detailed discussion of the recent publications regarding deportation of Berlin Jews through the collection camp on Große Hamburger Strasse to the ghettoes in Minsk, Theresienstadt, Łódź, or directly to Auschwitz. An important aspect of those publications is that they aim at identification of those responsible for the anti-Jewish actions.
