Diaries are an important source of the individual’s experience of dictatorship, also with reference to the Nazi “Volksgemeinschaft” (“people’s community”). The analysis of both diaries of young adults evacuated to the countryside during the war (“Kinderlandverschickung”) and members of Nazi youth organizations shows considerable discrepancies between the ideological principles of the “correct” presentation of Nazism and real text production. The portrayal of Peter Hofer, concentration camp doctor in Eugen Kogon’s “SS-Staat” (“The Theory and Practice of Hell”), not only reveals a further perspective of the Nazi era but also the necessity of a source-critical reading, even of reports of former concentration camp prisoners. The previous deconstruction of this publication, which shaped the image of the concentration camps, is continued here, while research desiderata of the concentration camp history become clear. The changing views of former Nazis on the denazification efforts in Austria in the 1950s, between relief strategies, self-victimisation and demands, give insights in Nazi value systems in the Second Republic through the fatal integration into the Austrian victim collective.
