In der Nacht von 9. auf 10. November 1938 wurden im Bundesland Salzburg mehr als 60 Männer verhaftet, viele ins Konzentrationslager gebracht. Jüdische Geschäfte in der Innenstadt, in Hallein und Bad Gastein wurden zerschlagen, die Synagoge in der Lasserstraße komplett zerstört. Die Ausschreitungen, die im gesamten Deutschen Reich als "Reichskristallnacht" bekannt waren, gelten als Wendepunkt in der antijüdischen Politik der Nationalsozialisten – sie machten deutlich: „Hier gibt es keine Perspektive mehr für euch“. In dieser Folge von "Schattenorte" sprechen Historikerin Helga Embacher und Historiker Albert Lichtblau über die Ereignisse in Salzburg und Bad Gastein und die Folgen, die diese für viele Salzburger Gewerbetreibenden und Familien hatten.   Literatur:  -Laurenz Krisch: "Zersprengt die Dollfußketten".

Incontro con Giaime Alonge. Presenta Luca Crovi Agli inizi degli anni Quaranta, il maggiore delle SS Hans Lichtblau viene messo alla guida di un programma di ricerca che utilizza i prigionieri dei campi di concentramento come cavie, ma anche come assistenti. Del Kommando fanno parte Shlomo Libowitz, nato in uno shtetl polacco e convertitosi al sionismo nel Lager, e Anton Epstein, ebreo assimilato della borghesia praghese. A distanza di quarant'anni, i due reduci si mettono sulle tracce di Lichtblau... Edizione 2019 www.pordenonelegge.it

In December of 2005 - 4 years after the terrorist attacks on 9/11 and just over 2 years after the U.S. launched troops to fight its “War on Terror” in Iraq - journalists James Risen and Eric Lichtblau published a bombshell report in the New York Times detailing the warrantless wiretapping of American citizens taking place at the behest of the George W. Bush administration as part of its intelligence-gathering operations. This expose was the first of many reports to emerge in the early years of the 21st century that outlined the continually expanding surveillance powers that the U.S. government and its various intelligence agencies put to use against its own citizen population, as well as against foreign governments and civilians.That very same year, a holiday-themed children's book titled The Elf on the Shelf: A Christmas Tradition was published by mother-daughter author duo Carol Aebersold and Chanda Bell. The book tells the story of a “scout elf” from the North Pole whose job is to observe children's behavior during the Christmas season, and report back to Santa Claus whether they have been “naughty” or “nice” - thus, whether they deserve to have their Christmas wishes fulfilled.Both of these artifacts tell a story about the growing presence and awareness of surveillance in American culture, and about our continuing acquiescence to being watched by powerful entities with mysterious motives. While the reports of journalists like Risen & Lichtblau, as well as whistleblowers like Edward Snowden, tell of a government wielding dystopian technology to spy on its citizenry, The Elf on the Shelf presents a seemingly more anodyne, innocent form of total panoptic surveillance - one that surely promises to take some stress off the backs of busy parents and teachers during the holiday season. But at what cost? What happens when we put a patently creepy, always-watching children's toy in charge of teaching our children lessons about morality and self-discipline?On today's show, we explore just some of the many cultural artifacts that form the assemblage of The Elf on the Shelf as a new holiday tradition that celebrates surveillance culture. In doing so, we contextualize Elf by analyzing the forces that give rise to the tradition: from Jeremy Bentham's & Michel Foucault's exploration of the “panopticon,” to the ever-watching “eye of God” in Christian religious traditions, to the ravaging culture of consumer capitalism that seems to drain the genuine substance from every tradition by replacing it with a constant yearning for new products. We lay bare our trenchant critiques of Elf's place in American holiday culture, and attempt to imagine new types of holiday traditions that focus on mutual aid, ethics of care, teaching children consequences (both good and bad) for their actions, and resisting the culture of surveillance perpetuated by both Big Brother and Big Santa.Special thanks for research assistance on this episode to Dr. Laura Pinto, who co-authored research examining The Elf on the Shelf and surveillance in 2014, and was kind enough to correspond with us and point us to some useful background reading in preparation for this show!Elf on the Shelf videos featured:Inside Look at Scout Elf Training CampScout Elves Take Flight for Scout Elf Return WeekThe Elf on the Shelf's Night Before Christmas Song & Music VideoWorks and concepts referenced:Bentham, J., & Božovič, M.

Bürgerwehren patrouillieren. Geister schweben über der Stadt. Das alles erscheint erschreckend real in Laura Lichtblaus Roman. Eine Rezension von Simone Hamm

Drei Menschen leben unter einem autoritären Regime in Berlin zwischen Revolte und Anpassung. Laura Lichtblaus Debüt ist manchmal sprachlich überladen und doch lesenswert.

Our guest on "A Dark Turn" this week is ERIC LICHTBLAU, a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and the best-selling author of "The Nazis Next Door: How America Became a Safe Haven for Hitler's Men," and "Bush's Law: The Remaking of American Justice." Lichtblau was a Washington reporter for the New York Times for fifteen years from 2002-2017 and for the Los Angeles Times for fifteen years before that. He has also written during his career for the New Yorker, TIME, and other publications, reporting extensively on national security, terrorism, law enforcement, civil rights, political corruption, war crimes, and other issues. He earned a Pulitzer Prize in 2006 for stories revealing the existence of a secret NSA wiretapping program approved after the Sept. 11 attacks, and a second Pulitzer in 2017 as part of a team investigating links between the Trump administration and Russia in the 2016 campaign. Eric joined us by phone to discuss his stunning new work of historical nonfiction "Return to the Reich: A Holocaust Refugee's Secret Mission to Defeat the Nazis." It will be available where all books are sold beginning October 15. Eric will also will be speaking about his new book and signing copies at the Miami Book Fair in November.

In his highly-acclaimed book, The Nazis Next Door, Eric Lichtblau tells the shocking and shameful story of how America became a safe haven for Hitler's men. Lichtblau explains here how it was possible for thousands of Nazis -- from concentration camp guards to high-level officers in the Third Reich -- to move to the U.S. after WWII, and quietly settle into new lives as Americans. Some of them gained entry as self-styled refugees, while others enjoyed the help and protection of the CIA, the FBI, and the military, who put them to work as spies, intelligence assets, and leading scientists and engineers. Lichtblau's book draws from once-secret government records and interviews, telling the full story of the Nazi scientists brought to America, and the German spies and con men who followed them and lived for decades as Americans. He is presented by the Holocaust Living History Workshop at UC San Diego. Series: "Library Channel" [Public Affairs] [Humanities] [Show ID: 31542]

We spoke to Albert Lichtblau at the oral history conference in Bangalore. He is from Vienna, Austria, and has followed the life of a working class Jewish family that fled to Kenya. He also shares with us an uplifting tale of a concentration camp survivor. Here he is in conversation with M K Shankar, Cofounder of Sunoh.

Vortrag Dr. Lichtblau

For his work on the domestic spying scandal, Lichtblau is the recipient of a Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting and is also this year's recipient, with Times reporter James Risen, of the Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting. The Pulitzer jury applauded them "for their carefully sourced stories on secret domestic eavesdropping that stirred a national debate on the boundary line between fighting terrorism and protecting civil liberty." Lichtblau has recently uncovered more government monitoring activities. The Swift story, in which counter-terrorism officials accessed the banking transactions of thousands of Americans from an international database, has alarmed many. The government's departure from typical practice in how they acquire large amounts of sensitive financial data has stirred concerns about legal and privacy issues. Eric Lichtblau covers federal law enforcement and national security issues for the Washington bureau of The New York Times. Before coming to the Times, he worked for the The Los Angeles Times for 15 years in both California and Washington, focusing on investigative reporting, legal affairs and law enforcement.
