The Question of Unworthy Life
From Particularism to Mass Murder
Scholars of the Third Reich have recently begun to study the ethical standards of National Socialist antisemites. Literature on Nazi morality frames German antisemitism as an attempt to reshape the country’s mores, but it pays insufficient attention to the psychological processes at work in replacing universalism with particularism. The author argues that cognitive dissonance theory could account for the uses and abuses of morality after 1933. He…
West German Psychoanalysis in Post-Analytic Times
This essay critically engages with the view that governmentality defined the parameters of psychotherapy in the late twentieth century. Even though different therapeutic schools embraced the values of autonomy, authenticity, and self-control, the meaning of these objectives varied, and gave rise to interpretations that were not confined to the goal of (“neoliberal”) self-optimization. While in some cases contemporaries associated psychotherapy wi…
The Persistence of Race
There is a tension at the heart of this volume. While Lara Day and Oliver Haag are keen to explore ‘constructs’, ‘cultures of race’, and ‘narratives of racialization’, their collaborators often resist the editors’ call to view race as a ‘persistent’ but easily ‘adaptable’ sociocultural category (p. 2). Many of the contributions are about change rather than continuity, and many of these are sensitive to historical context, even if causality is usu…
Homo Cinematicus
Like many conservatives in the early twentieth century, Wilhelm Stapel dreaded the emergence of the faceless ‘crowd’, whose purported lack of will power made it vulnerable to the manipulations of agitators and con men alike. What is the better way to describe the phenomenon, he must have thought, than to coin the term homo cinematicus? This shorthand allowed Stapel not only to cast film as one of the principle dangers facing Germany in the post-1…
Negotiating Free Will
The history of free will has yet to be written. With few exceptions, the literature on the subject is dominated by legal and philosophical works, most of which recount the ideas of prominent thinkers or discuss hypothetical questions far removed from specific historical contexts. The following article seeks to redress the balance by tracing the debate on hypnosis in Germany from 1894 to 1936. Examining responses to hypnosis is tantamount to recor…
Viktor Frankl’s Search for Meaning
The Library of Congress once ranked Viktor Frankl’s Holocaust memoir Man’s Search for Meaning , published in 1963, as one of the ten most influential books in the United States. Translated into twenty languages, the work not only recounted Frankl’s ordeal in various concentration camps, but also introduced the world to logotherapy, the so-called third Vienna school of psychotherapy, which sought to ‘overcome’ Sigmund Freud’s and Alfred Adler’s al…
The Holocaust and the Revival of Psychological History
The historian and psychoanalyst Judith Hughes has produced a book that will allow non-specialists to return to past debates on the Holocaust. Her volume examines prominent figures, including Adolf Hitler, Adolf Eichmann and Albert Speer; their biographers, including Ian Kershaw, Hannah Arendt and Gita Sereny; and controversies surrounding German and Polish complicity in the persecution of the Jews, including Daniel Goldhagen’s Hitler’s Willing Ex…
Egbert Klautke. The Mind of the Nation
Antisemitismus als Selbsthingebung, oder
Recent work on National Socialist Jew-hatred has focused on a group of selfproclaimed anti-semites that emphasized the “rational” and “objective” aspects of their creed, in contrast to the purported emotional Jew-hatred typical of the “masses.” This emphasis on a specific code of practice (the “anti-Semitism of reason” was to guide one’s own behaviour towards the Jews) needs to be augmented by an alternative “anti-Semitism of unreason” that surfa…
The Crisis of the Psyche and the Future of Germany
Some two decades ago, Peter Fritzsche wrote the first of two influential essays that questioned the then common conviction that Weimar Germany was all about doom and gloom. “What is distinctive about twentieth-century German culture,” he argued, “is not simply ‘crisis’—economic, political, cultural—but the widespread consciousness of crisis and the allied conviction that these emergency conditions could be managed to Germany's advantage.” Recentl…
Drives in Dispute
Summarizing the activities of the Sigmund-Freud-Institute (SFI) in Frankfurt am Main in 1969, its director Alexander Mitscherlich painted a bleak picture of recent events. Psychoanalysis had always faced opposition in Germany, he wrote, but of late Freudianism contended with several broadsides simultaneously: critics still maintained that it placed too much emphasis on sexuality; some added that behavioral therapy or sophisticated medication did …
Psychoanalysis is good, synthesis is better
Frankfurt's decision to award Freud the Goethe Prize in 1930 as well as the same city's decision to celebrate Freud's 100th birthday in 1956 will allow us to trace specific traditions in the German encounter with psychoanalysis. The diachronic approach will show that certain traditions survived well into the late 1950s, at a time when West Germany's intellectual landscape was otherwise changing on several fronts. Psychoanalysis remained anathema …

The mind of a rationalist
In this article, the author seeks to trace the various attempts on the part of well-known German psychologists in the Weimar Republic to emphasize the rational side of psychoanalysis. In doing so, the author tries to demonstrate that the early reception in this period often resembled a critique of Freud's rationalism. It is possible to discern one particular form of criticism that emerged time and again, namely the association of psychoanalysis w…
