註釋
Rejects the widely held view that ghettoization was a calculated step in the process leading to the Final solution. Notes that there was ghettoization only in Eastern Europe, Theresienstadt, and Salonika, and that it was not carried out systematically. Decisions to establish ghettos were made by local German authorities, while the Final Solution was a decision made at the highest level. Some ghettos, like those in Theresienstadt and Salonika, were simply transit stations for further deportation, and some were like concentration or labor camps within cities. Those established in the USSR in 1941 were short-lived and served no specific purpose; by that time, ghettoization was simply considered part of the Nazi anti-Jewish policy. Traces the term "ghetto" back to the 16th century. Points out that German Jews themselves used it metaphorically in the first years of the Nazi regime, referring to their deteriorating social and legal position, and that it was adopted by German policy-makers in 1938.
