Abstract
Daniel Goldhagen's book on the Holocaust-condemning the German ''elimi nationist'' mindset toward Jews-has become an international bestseller and a datum in German-American relations. Pity, because it is a simpl istic, monocausal, and unhistorical explanation of one of the most com plex horrors in history. For Goldhagen, as for the Nazis, Hitler is Ge rmany.
