Growing up in Nazi Germany...
Melita Maschmann was a member of the BDM (League of German Girls). Her autobiography, Fazit: Kein Rechtfertigungsversuch (1963), is a controversial account of her Nazi past. This article shows
how, through frameworks of racialised and gendered victimhood, concepts
of nationhood are embroiled not only within persistent, competing Nazi
ideologies but also within international ideological constellations of
the Cold War. It situates Fazit within contemporary debates about victimhood and the responsibility of women for their actions in the Holocaust.
