"On Auschwitz" (40): Why prisoners of Auschwitz did not start a revolt?

One of the important questions about Auschwitz is why the
prisoners, who outnumbered the SS guards, did not make an attempt
of a general revolt or uprising.


Dr. Piotr Setkiewicz and Dr. Wanda Witek-Malicka of the Museum
Research Center discuss the first encounter of prisoners with the
realities of the camp, their adaptation to the conditions of
existence and the possibilities of initiating a revolt among the
prisoners.

version of the podcast.
