Franz Stangl Interview Guiding Questions

1. Personal response. Do you find it understandable, unfathomable, insane . . .? Explain your response

2. He didn’t see any prisoners as individuals. They were just a mass of things that went past him.

3. Personal response. He had a choice in the sense that he could have quit and fled the country. He didn’t

have a choice in the sense that his job was considered normal in Germany and rebelling meant

imprisonment or death.

4. He describes the system as a normal everyday job. To Stangl, he wasn’t committing atrocities against

humanity, he was just doing what the system did well, and he helped the system along.

5. Stangl has some remorse when describing the cattle lining up for slaughter. He compares the cattle to the

prisoners and he can no longer eat canned meat after.

6. Comparing perpetrators as beasts dehumanizes people like Stangl. It helps people deny the fact that

humans are capable of such terrible crimes.
