Abstract:
[Discourses of Guilt in Post-War Germany]
Guilt - how do victims speak about it? How do the perpetrators? How do those who were able to keep their distance from National Socialism? How do they all speak about the guilt of the German people? The author investigates these questions and reconstructs three different sub-discourses in which participants construct the term, guilt, from their own different perspectives.
