To What Extent Affected The Nazi Concentration Camps By Living In Germany

To what extent affected the Nazi concentration camps by living in Germany

SOURCE IDENTIFICATION AND EVALUATION

The following work has as the main objective to analyze the effect of the Nazi concentration camps, so the research question is: to what extent did Nazi concentration camps affected in the daily living in Germany?, This question will answer the question raised, also strengthen my knowledge about the subject, to know how it affected the Nazi concentration camps in the daily living in Germany we will use two secondary sources, in the first secondary source there is “History of the Nazis fields", While in the second source she details" Life in the Nazi fields ".

Although these two sources are different, the suffering of the Jews can be evidenced during the Nazi government, in addition the abuse of the prisoners by the same.

History of the first Nazi concentration fields.

This source is an article that was obtained from the Internet, the purpose of this source is to publicPrisoners, in addition the administrative system of these concentration fields and finally the world in which the prisoners lived, the term concentration camp refers to a field in which people stop or confine themselves, usually under hard conditions and without respect withoutto the legal norms of arrest or imprisonment that are acceptable in constitutional democracies.

This source has great value since it narrates the events in a true and chronological way as the first Nazi fields happened, however, despite being an article with systematic information, the article has a limitation that we do not have the suffering of thepeople.

Life in concentration camps

This source is information on a page. Internet website. The main purpose of this source is to inform about life within the Nazi fields and the entire system that was the prisoners, in addition, the abuse in the extermination tanks and finally the attack on the Jews by Adolf Hitler,On the other hand, the concentration camps were an instrument of torture and terror of Nazi politics between 1933 and 1945, they founded more than 40,000 fields that occupied the extensive set of prisons throughout Europe.

This source has a great assessment since it narrates the events in a truthful way and emphasizing the suffering of the Jews who passed within the Nazi fields, despite being a page. From the Internet with systematic information, it has a limitation that we do not have a testimony of people who lived those painful moments.

The Nazi concentration camps before World War II (1933-1939) started

In the event the first Nazi concentration camps were built in Germany in 1933, until September 1939, there were only about 11 of which 6 were the most important fields.

Although at the beginning of 1933 the communists constituted between 80% and 90% of all captives, for the summer of that year it had between 60% and 70%, the fall of this percentage was due to the prohibition of the Social Democratic Partyof Germany and the related actions of the Nazis at the end of June, in the summer of 1933, there were more than 26.000 prisoners in the field of fields, mainly men since women were the exception at that time, also, of leftists locked many bourgeois, conservative politicians and representatives of the Weimar Republic, as well as Jehovah’s Witnesses, members of the clergy , Democrats of the entire political spectrum, pacifist, intellectual and even some followers of the Nazi party, and homosexuals, finally life in the fields was characterized as an inadequate life, a routine would say strictly stipulated, exhaustive forced labor and excessive military discipline also also The terror of the abuse by the guards on the prisoners, in addition to the subsequent concentration camps, the captives of this first stage could obtain the release after a few months despite the bursts of violence and isolated cases of murders , later the fields went from being instruments of persecution to places built two intentionally under terrifying living conditions so they aimed to exterminate specific groups (especially Jews). These first years of existence of the Nazi concentration camps would be the "experimental stage" of 1933-1934 and could be considered as a general trial for the growing radicalization of the field system, which ended with mass murders in the extermination fields 

In conclusion, the life of the fields only lasted a few months and each of them locked a large number of prisoners, who were followers and members of leftist parties and organizations, fundamentally communist, but also social democratic and trade unionists, finally the total of the total ofThe deceased inmates in those concentration camps built before the Second World War was started was 1.203.536 dead.

The Nazi concentration camps at the beginning of the conflict (1940-1941)

In the event they continued with the construction of the concentration camps and the vast majority of them will be built outside the German borders (Poland, Belarus, Ukraine, Croatia, Netherlands, France, Norway and among others) among others). The so -called extermination fields also arise whose purpose was to liquidate most of the prisoners settled in these fields.

To get the death of a large majority of prisoners and save expenses and time, it goes from hanging or executions to trips in trucks and vans (whose escape tubes threw the smoke inwards where the prisoners were) and especially theGas cameras, subsequently they were incinerated in the crematorium ovens in the same concentration camp. It should be noted that the extermination fields are minority (only six out of a total of twenty -one) but quite effective, prevailing the work fields, and the greatest number of deaths produced by these concentration camps located in Eastern Europe, whileThey reduce in Germany, especially in Norway (having a lower number of Jews and Semites). During the period 1940-1941, the Nazis did not elaborate a clear and coherent policy about what to do with the Jews, the Poles and the half million Germans of pure strain that were sent to territories added by Germany. Only when the Warthegau began to collapse with the Jews arriving from Germany and when the invasion of the USSR multiplies the problem of movement and the maintenance of people, it began to think more seriously about the elaboration of more or less precise plans to solve such problems. In this sense, shortly after being appointed Minister of the East Territories, in November 1941, Rosemberg explained these ideas declaring that these territories were called to be the place of resolution of the Jewish issue;In his opinion, such a matter could only be resolved through the biological elimination of all Jews in Europe.

In conclusion, the most terrifying concentration camp was undoubtedly that of Auschwitz due to the bad treatment received by the prisoners, especially the more than 1.5 million people killed in this concentration camp, located about 60 km to theWest of Krakow, was the largest extermination center in the history of Nazism. At the entrance door to one of the various fields that composed Auschwitz you can read the motto in German: Arbeit Macht Frei "Work will make you free".

The final solution (1942-1945)

In the event all the Nazi concentration camps demanded to work at the extreme to the captives, in addition to bringing them to death, the very weak prisoners or prisoners were hanged, shot or in most of the time, taken to the gas cameras. This genocide of the Nazis can clearly appreciate in the small German field of Ohrdruf that, in only its five months of existence, all prisoners murdered.

In 1942, Hitler would tell Goebbels that he was determined to clean Europe from Jews without regrets that it was necessary. At the beginning of 1942 Goering commissioned the SS to the final solution, the problem, that is, the annihilation of the Jews, both of the Reich and the occupied countries of Europe.

The Nazis put three goals in the concentration camps:

1. Indiscriminate terror: to make political enemies disappear and submit to all citizens, among the prisoners there were many people without objective guilt, they had not done anything.
2. Extermination of the Jews: end all the Jews or fate her to suffer, but the goal was to exterminate all of them.
3. Medical experiments: a series of experiments were made especially with the Jews to carry out all their purposes.

Wooden cameras were replaced by concrete construction with capacity for six gas chambers, which could at the same time house a total of 2000 people. Up to 600.000 Jews, both occupied and other places in Central Europe, were killed before the end of the year. The second extermination field that was part of Operation Reinhard began to be built in March 1942 near sobibor, also on the basis of a field of work, in this case for Jewish women, in 1943 there was a rebellion of Jewish workersthat ended with the escape of several of them, who contacted guerrilla groups, almost 250.000 Jews died in Sobibór, therefore for 1945 almost two out of three European Jews had been killed, although the Jews were the main victims, (with more than 6 million killed Jews) more than 3 million Soviet prisoners also died, 2of Poles and about 500.000 Gypsies.

In conclusion, more than half of the Jewish population were killed whether they were men or women who were usually used to make forced labor or for experiments for other purposes, therefore, the people who remained in the concentration camps were killed, byexample in gas chambers.

Reflection

At the end of my research I could understand that historians have different points of view on the Nazi concentration camps. Which makes it difficult to have a global approach to this issue and thus have a better vision close to reality, on the subject. When investigating my subject I found a number of sources that exposed the Nazi fields in Germany but I also found some secondary sources without author or date so these sources were discarded by not being reliable. In my work I have used secondary sources such as internet articles of the same web pages for finding data that make my research more confidential. I could measure the impact that Nazi fields produced on people especially in Jews in Germany. When analyzing the secondary sources I could appreciate the point of view of the author of that publication, which falls within an investigation where historical materialism is appreciated.

Finally, I understood that the concentration camps were an integral part of the Nazi German regime between 1933 and 1945 and this term concentration camp refers to a field in which people stop or nestled people, usually under hard conditions andwithout respect for legal norms of arrest or imprisonment that are acceptable in constitutional democracies. On the other hand, concentration camps have been used throughout history to enclose political opponents, ethnic or religious groups, people of a certain sexual orientation, refugees or displaced by a war conflict, as well as prisoners of war. In this way, those who go to a concentration camp have not had a trial and lack judicial guarantees. It is believed that around 15 thousand concentration camps were established in Europe occupied by the Nazis during World War II, it is claimed that around 15 million people perished, taking into account that a concentration camp is different from aPrison field.

In conclusion, I can state that the Nazi concentration camps were human extermination centers where many human beings who fell into the hands of the Germans were exterminated because they have different political and especially religious thought, such as the case of the Jews who were treated without considerationsome.
