Description
Summary:The racial ideology of the SS is first and foremost associated with exclusion and genocide. Less attention has been given to the idealization of “blood-related” peoples. However, from the perspective of the SS, the “gathering together of Nordic blood” and the systematic extermination of Jews, Roma, and other Fremdvölkischen were two sides of the same coin., Isabel Heinemann shows in her study of the SS Rasse- und Siedlungshauptamt (RuSHA) how closely these two extremes of the SS could actually be intertwined. In the search for “good blood” in Eastern Europe, for instance, the same RuSHA “racial inspection” could result in the “Germanization” of some and the murder of other screened persons.
