Nazi Genocide of Slavs and Colonial Practices

This book is a collection of articles by renowned researchers on Nazi crimes against Slavic peoples of the Soviet Union. Yegor Yakovlev analyzes investigative cases of SS members, containing previously unknown statements by Heinrich Himmler regarding instructions for the systematic extermination of Slavs to undermine their demographic superiority. Alesya Korsak reconstructs the monstrous mass murder in Ozarichi on the territory of Belarus, while Kseniya Chepikova shows that German courts repeatedly acknowledged the genocidal nature of Nazi policies towards Russians and Poles. The collection provides a wealth of new material for understanding the genocidal policies of the Third Reich, which were only halted as a result of the victories of the Red Army.
