The Sonderkommando, a group of Jewish laborers enslaved to work in Auschwitz-Birkenau's gas chambers and crematoria, is one of the most intriguing and distressing topics in Holocaust history. These individuals, who were witnesses to and complicit in the murder of their fellow Jews, face widespread criticism even today. However, it is remarkable that a subset of these seemingly compromised men orchestrated the uprising of October 7, 1944, which is celebrated as one of the most remarkable acts of Holocaust resistance. This interdisciplinary collection brings together meticulous examinations of how the Sonderkommando have been portrayed, both by themselves and by others, during and after the Holocaust.
