Memory and History: Recollections of a Historian of Nazism, 1967–1982

This second volume of memoirs picks up where my first volume, Out of Hitler's Shadow: Childhood and Youth in Germany and the United States, 1935-1967, left off, namely with my return to the United States with my wife Steffi and my daughter Trina from five years of expatriation in Germany in the "drop-out" years of the 1960s. I taught high school English and social studies in northeastern Vermont f

Quotes by Roderick Stackelberg (?)

“The dynamic described by Thomas Frank in his book What Is the Matter with Kansas? was at work in Nazi Germany. Frank analyzes the reasons why Republicans were so successful in getting middle—and lower-middle class people to vote against their own economic interests in the “red” states. This “cultural egalitarianism,” this mobilization of anti-elitist resentments, is not socialist; it`s fascist. It is anti-socialist.”
― Roderick Stackelberg, Into the Twenty-First Century: A Memoir, 1999 - 2012

“superior morality. The closest relative to Nazism today is the religious right, the kind of moral and religious absolutism, fanaticism, and fundamentalism that seeks to impose its ideals on society and suppress deviance (or, for that matter, diversity), by force if necessary. In the name of this kind of idealism the most heinous crimes and atrocities against deviants (today, for example, against gays, against Muslims, against the homeless, against illegal immigrants, against doctors who perform abortions) can be committed in good conscience. Membership in a “moral majority” and the true believer’s conviction of possessing absolute moral truth give the religious and nationalist right that sense of unshakeable righteousness that if given free rein is eventually bound to culminate in tyranny.”

“All morality presupposes a universalizing principle. As Immanuel Kant put it, “Act as if the maxim through which you act were to become through your will a universal law.” The absence of this universalizing principle, the refusal to respect the principle, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” should have rendered Nazi policies recognizable as immoral from the start, just as we should for the same reason recognize US policies as immoral today. This Kantian principle is expressed in Martin Luther King’s famous maxim, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
