- Title
Genese eines Feindbilds: Der jüdische Sozialdemokrat Max Süßheim und seine Gegner.
- Authors
Milz, Kristina
- Abstract
In the early Stürmer, Max Süßheim (1876–1933) from Nuremberg is omnipresent: During the mid-1920s there was hardly a single issue of the smear sheet which neglected to refer to the Social Democrat, who as a lawyer was among the early opponents of National Socialism. As a politician Süßheim had played an important role during the revolution of 1918/19; to date he remains the last Jewish member of the Bavarian parliament. How could such a figure be forgotten even within his own political party? Kristina Milz places the Jewish Social Democrat with a bourgeois background into the context of pre-democratic and early democratic Bavaria and exposes his enemies' identity-centred line of argumentation, which, whether coming from the left or the right, always reduced Süßheim to his heritage.
