Nazi Medicine

In the Shadow of the Reich: Nazi Medicine

		In the Shadow of the Reich: Nazi Medicine (1997; 60 minutes) is a one-hour documentary by Prof. John J. Michalczyk, Director of Film Studies at Boston College, completed for the 50th Anniversary of the Nuremberg Physicians' Trial (December 1946-August 1947).
The documentary was shot at the Auschwitz and Majdanek concentration camp and features a score of interviews with the leading scholars and survivors involved in the study of Nazi medicine: Dr. Michael Grodin, Dr. Charles Roland, Dr. Jay Katz, Mrs. Eva Kor, Dr. Arthur Caplan, Prof. Michael Kater, Prof. Donald Dietrich, and Dr. Paul Vinger, along with a 1995 interview at Auschwtiz with a former S.S. doctor, Hans Munch. During the Third Reich, in a step by step process, the Nazi doctors went from racial theory, to sterilization of the unfit, to euthansia, and eventually arrived at the Final Solution of the Jewish question--genocide. The doctors were integrally involved with these decisions in every way, from racial laws and diagnoses to selections and unethical experimentation. This documentary graphically traces the medical involvement in this process.

Dublethink Double Agent O'Brien

I love that with doublethink you get all the full benefit of the circular argument. I love that it makes it possible for opposites to exist simultaneously and to fully believe whatever stance is convenient for the moment. O'Brien is the epitome of doublethink because whatever people seem to believe at the time, he fills that roll. I like to think that he was once a rebel converted, because often those make the best "converters" (for lack of a better word, the person to convert others in the future) because he will be able to understand them, and also personally want to educate and light the way for them. He is like the shepherd trying to find the lost sheep, he wants to bring them back. Despite the fact that to us as third-party individuals who have the benefit of seeing the regime as a whole and wanting Winston to win against it, O'Brien believes heart and soul this regime. This is what makes him so scary. And what makes the anti-climactic conversion of Winston so frightning, humans can effectively be broken down and reconstructed. A similar thing happened to Dostoevsky. It really is possible.

Understanding Orwell revised

The proles will never become conscious or aware of the situation because they are controlled by the thought police, hunger, proganda, technology and just hard living in general, they need a
person to guide them like Goldstein.  When enough of them become aware to make a change, then as a group can rebel. And finally afterwards they will they see the real world as it truly is. “Until they become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious” (Orwell 70).  This is true for the North Koreans.  In  the North Korean detention camps, people were born in to captivity and werent aware of the outside world. It took outsiders to smuggle in books, like The Count of Monte Cristo, for them to even be aware of the word "escape". If it wasn't for the book and introducing the new idea of escape, they life would still remain the same. Captive without even knowing it. Controlled with no hope for change.

Corrections and revision:

The proles will never become conscious or aware of the situation because they are controlled by the thought police, hunger, propaganda, technology and just hard living in general, they need a
person to guide them like Goldstein. When enough of them become aware to make a change, then as a group can rebel. And finally afterwards they will they see the real world as it truly is that their life is no longer their own, but Big Brother's. “Until they become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious” (Orwell 70). This is true for the North Koreans. In the North Korean detention camps, people were born in to captivity and weren't aware of the outside world.
