Essay from the year 2017 in the subject History of Germany - National Socialism, World War II, grade: 8, Vytautas Magnus University, language: English, abstract: The essay analyzes two important parts of the German History: Colonialism and the Holocaust. Certain aspects in the definitions of Colonialism seem similar in the Holocaust for example the characterization through a pigment difference, or a difference of at least two races/ kinds of people. Within which you can often find a developmental gap as well and a leak of difference in education (although it is not always proven and often imagined by the conquer). The unequal exchange of recourse (in the case of colonialism in Africa) as much as an extreme violence are to notice as well. The violence in cruelty will be find in both, colonialism and Holocaust - yet in very different ways.
