Description
Summary:“How, after 1945, did West Germany deal politically and legally with the destruction of the economic livelihood and the fiscal plundering of German Jews during the years of Nazi rule?” asks Jürgen Lillteicher in his in-depth study of restitution of Jewish property in the early years of the Federal Republic. Exhaustive archival research enables Lillteicher to shed new light on the implementation of restitution, the opposition of those who had gained from Aryanization under the Nazis, the hostility of the local courts, and the efforts of individuals and Jewish organizations to overcome resistance.
