New book:
THE WOMEN'S CAMP IN MORINGEN. A Memoir of Imprisonment in Germany
1936-1937. Translated by Hildegard Herz and Howard Hartig. Edited and
with an Introduction by Jane Caplan, Fellow of St Antony's College,
Oxford, and University Lecturer in Modern History. The Nazi regime
opened its first concentration camps within weeks of coming to power,
but with the exception of Dachau the history of these early,
improvised camps and their inmates is not yet widely known. Gabriele
Herz's memoir, published for the first time, is a unique record of a
Jewish woman's detention in the first women's concentration camp in
Moringen (housed in part of an old-established workhouse), at a time
when most other inmates were communists or Jehovah's Witnesses. This
original translation of her wry and perceptive memoir is accompanied
by an extensive introduction that sets Herz's experience in the
history both of political detention under the Nazi regime and of the
German workhouse
system.

COMMENTARIES: WORD dokuments in English ,

). [“On March 24, the Higher
Administrative Court
[Oberverwaltungsgericht,

decided once again that the religious organization fulfills the
requirements to be granted the rights of corporation under Public
Law. The court did not allow for revision. What is left is the
possibility for the State of Berlin to file a complaint at the
Federal Administrative Court (Bundesverwaltungsgericht,
BVerwG). […]
According to the court,
all accusations made against them [Jehovah’s Witnesses] proved
to be unsubstantiated. ‘As a result, the defendant (the State
of Berlin) could only rely on so-called reports by dropouts, [and]
reports from anti-sect initiatives …’ However, family
courts, physicians, psychologists, and scientific examinations did
not confirm their view of matters. ‘It could hardly be expected
[that], with hindsight, dropouts could draw any positive aspects from
their experiences with the association.’ This assessment of the
court is diametrically opposed to the activities of the commissioners
for sect issues of the [two] mainstream churches who base their
negative judgment about the religious competitors not only on these
‘reports by dropouts’ but also collaborate very closely
with these former members and with anti-sect
organizations.”]

Religion, State and
Society. The
Keston Journal.
Special Issue: Jehovah’s Witnesses under two Dictatorships,
Volume 34, Issue 2, 2006. This issue of Religion, State
&
Society brings together the work of four British and German
scholars who have conducted research in recent years on the
experiences of Jehovah’s Witnesses in the “Third Reich”
and the German Democratic Republic (GDR). The original papers were
presented at a workshop held at Stafford in February 2004 which was
co-organised by the Institute for Holocaust and Genocide Education
and Research, Staffordshire University, and the History and
Governance Research Institute of the University of Wolverhampton
(UK). On the basis of newly available primary sources, as well as the
testimonies of Witnesses themselves, the revised articles focus on
the tribulations of Jehovah’s Witnesses in the National
Socialist concentration camps (see
summary in German) and in GDR prisons (see
German version), the experiences of the children of Witnesses
during the years 1933 to 1989, the policies of the two regimes, and
the persecution of the Witnesses by the Ministry of State Security.
The publisher presents the fruits of collaboration with Mike Dennis,
Professor of Modern German History at Wolverhampton University, on
the subject of Jehovah's Witnesses under two
dictatorships.
