In this book DanielJonah Goldhagen cuts through the historical and moral fog to layout the full extent of the Catholic Church's involvement in theHolocaust, transforming a narrow discussion fixated on Pope PiusXII into the long-overdue investigation of the Church throughoutEurope. He shows that the Church's and the Pope's complicity in thepersecution of the Jews was much deeper than has been understood.The Church's leaders were fully aware of the persecutions and theydid not speak out and urge resistance. Instead, they supported manyaspects of the persecution. Some clergy even took part in the massmurder. But Goldhagen goes further and develops a new, precise wayfor assessing the Church and its clergy's culpability. He thenshows that the Church has, even according to its own doctrine, anunacknowledged duty of repair. He explores this duty, analyzes theChurch's tactics of evasion, and delineates all that the Churchmust do to repair the harm it inflicted on Jews and to healitself.
