Was Oskar Schindler A Behavior Or A Sinner

Oskar Schindler rescued Jews from being deported to concentration camps by getting them to work for him. He treated them all very well and they were all exempt from Auschwitz. He got arrested on charges of irregularities and favoring Jews. He set up factories in Krakow, home of about 60,000 Jews. The factories primarily had Jewish workers. He got permission to keep his factories if he moved them to Brunnlitz. There were 700 men and 300 women deported to Auschwitz, when Schindler found out he got them released and sent to work for him. Oskar and his wife Emily both helped rescue Jews. Emily stopped a cattle car with 120 Jewish men in it and she convinced the SS officer that the men were needed for work. As a result the men were sent back to work for Oskar and Emily. Together they rescued over 1,000 Jews.

When the war ended he fled with his wife to Argentina, not only did his wife and himself leave Germany he took some of the jews with him to help them start a new life. After the war many jews did not have much left the Nazi’s destroyed most of the business,s and not only that but most jews did not have homes. Most of the jews that were in Oskar’s factory did not have homes to stay or families to go with so he took his wife and some of the jews and fled to Argentina. When arriving he bought a farm and that farm would be home to many of the jews that he took in.

Oskar Schindler was a hero in World War II. He endured many conflicts. The main battle he faced was during World War II. During World War II, Oskar Schindler was a German businessman who saved Jews in Poland and Czechoslovakia from death by employing them in his factory (“Oskar Schindler” 362).

I choose this quote because today all nazis are looked at as monsters and terrible people. This is true for the majority of nazis, but not all. People like Schindler are reason why the 3.5 million Jews survived the holocaust. My reaction to this quote was total shock because just like everyone else I believed all nazis were terrible. This quote gave me a different point of view towards nazis and showed me that some nazis actually helped the Jews survive. Mr. Schindler alone saved nearly 1,200 innocent Jews from death. He did this by hiring Jews to work for him and in return gave them some food and a place to stay outside of the concentration camps. He did much more for his jewish employees than would ever be expected from him. For

How Schindler Saved The Jews Oskar Schindler convinced the Nazi party to let him open a new factory that would help with the war effort and serve as a concentration camp. He created his own

October 1944, after the SS transferred the Emalia Jews to Plaszow, Schindler sought and obtained authorization to relocate his plant to Brünnlitz (Brnenec) in Moravia, and reopen it solely as an armaments factory. One of his assistants drew numerous versions of a list of up to 1,200 Jewish prisoners needed to work in the new factory. These lists came to be known collectively as “Schindler's List.” Schindler met the necessities required by the SS to classify Brünnlitz as a sub-camp of Gross-Rosen concentration camp and thereby facilitated the survival of about 800 Jewish

Oskar Schindler faced many conflicts in his life. The main conflict he faced was overcoming the Nazis and saving over one thousand Jewish People. Schindler, with out a job at the time, joined the Nazi Party and followed on the heels of the SS when the Germans invaded Poland. This is when Schindler took over two previously Jewish owned companies that dealt with the manufacture and sales of enamel kitchenware products and opened up his own enamel shop right outside of Krakow near the Jewish ghetto. There, he employed mostly Jewish workers, which saved them from being deported to labor camps. Though twice the Gestapo arrested him, he got released because of his many connections and with many bribes. Most

Oskar Schindler was not one to pass up an opportunity to make some money. He marched into Poland with the SS and dove head first into the black market. He soon began to make friends with the Gestapo, the secret state police, by softening them up with women, money and alcohol. His newfound connections helped him to acquire a factory, which he ran with the cheapest labor around, Jews. At first, it seemed like he was another German money-driven industrialist but somewhere along the way something changed.

No other Nazis were even the slightest kind towards Jews, so doing this put his own life at risk. “It took unbelievable courage and ingenuity, not to mention enormous bribes, for Schindler to get the necessary approvals to disassemble lathes, punch presses, and other heavy equipment and transport all of the parts to that distant location”(148). No challenge stood in his way of saving as many Jews as he could, Schindler had no fear of what was going to happen. If Schindler had fear it would’ve been harder to accomplish what he did, the courage he had is what let him save the Jews he

Watching Schindler's list I decided to focus on Oskar Schindler. Throughout the movie Schindler personal emotions change on the war. In the beginning we see that it was a good thing for business that nothing else mattered as long as he made money. When Jews would come up he wouldn't care about them because he knew he could manipulate them and earn more money since they needed him. Schindler didn't really care for the Jews and what would happen to them. We see that Schindler only concern is that his business profits in the war. His concern for going to parties were to make connection that would better his money earning business. Money was his only concern which is why he went out seeking a jew. Since having a jew made it so they could be payed less than a normal person and they would be to scared to not do work. If he got a Jew it would earn him more money than hiring a German accountant. After getting an accountant he goes and seek workers for his factory. The workers are Jews since they don't need to be payed to be working. We later learn that his wife influences him with making business and wanting to succeed. He came from a place where he had nothing and is just beginning to make it. Hes making so much money he doesn't know what to do and he thanks the war for that. With his business doing so well he starts to care about his workers. He cares about them because he needs them to continue making the money.He starts really caring about his accountant Stern he makes sure he

Schindler's List is one of the most powerful movies of all time. It presents the indelible true story of enigmatic German businessman Oskar Schindler who becomes an unlikely saviour of more than 1100 Jews amid the barbaric Nazi reign. A German Catholic war profiteer, Schindler moved to Krakow in 1939 when Germany overran Poland. There he opens an enamelware factory that, on the advice of his Jewish accountant Itzhak Stern, was staffed by Jews from the nearby forced labour camp at Plaszow. Schindler's factory prospered though his contacts with the Nazi war machine and its local representatives, as well as his deft skill on the black market. Then, somewhere along the way, Schindler's devotion to self-interest was

Leadership has played a valuable role throughout history in countless leaders and even followers. Although some of the greatest leaders in history lead for a more notorious cause, the leadership skills they conveyed and followed were key to the success of their goal and accomplishments. I believe Oskar Schindler was a great leader for many reasons because of how he dealt with the Nazi party during the Holocaust and how he adapted to change and from that change resulted in saving over a thousand Jews from death. Oskar Schindler shows how sometimes a leader has to change his values and therefore his actions to accommodate the surroundings and situation. As a result to this change

Using his charm to work his way into Nazi inner circles, he found a way to establish his ever so famous factory. This factory was called the “Emalia” factory. His Nazi connections couldn’t fund it all the way though, so he got some help from some of the very few jews that had any wealth left. In turn, he would let them work there, and possibly escape being thrown in a concentration camp. The factory produced enamel based goods for the Nazi party,

In this paper I will try to explain who the man Oscar Schindler was, where he came from, and what his motivation was for saving so many Jews. I will further highlight the reasons why, and explain the methods he used to save 1,200 people during World War 11. I will also further discuss the ethical implications of these actions and believes. The reader can at the end of this paper decide for himself or herself if Oscar Schindler, while partaking in the Holocaust, who could be considered as one of the greatest heroes of the century, was a bystander, persecutor or a rescuer.
