The book "Holocaust and War Crimes in Court" offers an in-depth analysis of Austria's role in the crimes of the Nazi regime. It highlights the involvement of Austrians in the atrocities, particularly in the extermination camps, and raises questions about responsibility and the consequences for the perpetrators. The volume examines the jurisprudence of Austrian people's and jury courts regarding various criminal cases, starting from the November pogrom of 1938 to the crimes at the Mauthausen concentration camp and the Holocaust. The authors analyze the verdicts that were issued in nearly 600 proceedings up until the 1970s, questioning whether these reflect the reality of the crimes committed or if the justice system failed. Contributions from renowned experts provide different perspectives on the challenges of prosecution and the societal engagement with Austria's Nazi past.
