Special Treatment inAuschwitz: Origin and Meaning of a Term.By Carlo Mattogno. When appearing in German wartime documents,terms like “special treatment,” “special action,” and othershave been interpreted as code words signifying the murder of inmates.While the term “special treatment” in many such documentsdid indeed mean execution, the term need not always have had thatmeaning in German records. This book is the most thorough studyof this textual problem to date. Publishing and interpreting numeroussuch documents about Auschwitz—many of them hitherto unknown—Mattognoshows that, while “special” had many differentmeanings, not a single one meant “execution.” This important study demonstrates that thepractice of deciphering an alleged “code language” by assigning homicidal meaning toharmless documents is no longer tenable.
