This article compares the fate of the Gypsies under the Third Reich to that of the Jews, arguing that, despite parallels, the treatment each group underwent differed fundamentally. The Nazis never formulated a plan for a "Final Solution" to the Gypsy problem analogous to that for the Jews. Compulsory sterilization affected only a relatively small portion of the Gypsy population, and killings that did take place were carried out to achieve Nazi solutions to specific local situations. Numerous sources, especially recently discovered local police files, show that large numbers of "racially pure" and "socially adjusted" Gypsies were exempted from deportation to the Gypsy family camp in Auschwitz and were allowed to survive the war.
本文将纳粹德国时期吉卜赛人的命运与犹太人的命运作了比较,认为尽管存在相似之处,但两个群体所遭受的待遇却有着根本区别。纳粹从未制定过类似于对犹太人的“最终解决方案”来处理吉卜赛人问题。强制绝育只影响了相对一小部分吉卜赛人口,而发生的杀戮行为是为了实现纳粹针对特定当地情况的解决方案。大量资料,尤其是最近发现的当地警方档案显示,许多“种族纯正”且“社会适应良好”的吉卜赛人被豁免被驱逐到奥斯威辛的吉卜赛人家庭营地,并得以在战争中幸存。
