Elissa Mailänder, “People Working: Leisure, Love, and Violence in Nazi Concentration Camps”
Elissa Mailänder is an Associate Professor of contemporary history at Sciences Po, Center for History (CHSP), Paris, France. Aside from her recently published book, Female SS Guards and Workaday Violence: The Majdanek Concentration Camp, 1942–1944 (Lansing: Michigan State University Press, 2015), she has published several articles on perpetrator history and the structures, mechanisms, and dynamics of violence in Nazi concentration and extermination camps. Her new project, however, examines friendship, intimacy and heterosexual relationships in Nazi Germany, highlighting the importance of mass participation and practices of everyday conformity to dictatorship.
