Die antisemitischen und nazistischen Vorfälle in der Zeit vom 25. Dezember 1959 bis zum 28. Januar 1960.

A report on 685 antisemitic (and neo-Nazi) incidents which occurred in different regions of Germany in the period between Christmas Eve 1959 and 28 January 1960. Most cases concerned antisemitic graffiti found on churches, Jewish cemeteries, monuments, and public buildings, as well as swastikas on residences, factory buildings, army barracks, phone booths, railway cars, and even on trees. Among the perpetrators were right-wing extremists, and others with more subtle political motives, some with communist backgrounds or who acted on impulses induced by mass hysteria. 63 of the perpetrators were sentenced to prison for short periods. 46 pages ; 21 cm
