Title Julius Streicher at Nuremberg : a case of justice denied?.
Original Library/publisher British Journal of Holocaust Education. London
Host Item British Journal of Holocaust Education 3,1 (1994) 32-55
Description Julius Streicher, the infamous antisemitic propagandist of the Nazi Party, was sentenced to death by the Nuremberg Tribunal. He was found guilty because, through his newspaper "Der Stürmer", he not only incited to racial hatred but also propagated the idea of genocide against the Jews, in full knowledge that this genocide was being carried out at that time. Thus, he was instrumental in the implementation of the Final Solution. Streicher's defense attorney, Dr. Marx, argued that Streicher called for emigration of the Jews, not mass murder
that he did not know about the genocide in the East
and that he never was an influential figure in the Nazi leadership, able to determine its policy towards the Jews. Rejects all of these arguments except the last. Shows that in the late 1930s-early 1940s Streicher did not belong to the Nazi elite
those who engineered the Holocaust were not influenced by "Der Stürmer"
the genocide was conceived and implemented not by Streicher but by Himmler, Rosenberg, and others. Concludes that the decision of the Nuremberg Tribunal in the Streicher case may be regarded as an inaccurate one.
