Industry and ideology

There has been much written on I.G. Farben since Lutz Haber s account, which relied upon F. ter Meer, Die IG. Farben (Dusseldorf Econ, 1953) see, e.g., R.G. Stokes, Divide and Prosper I.G. Farben under Allied Authority, 1945-51 (Berkeley University of California, 1988) Gottfried Plumpe, Die I.G. Farbenindustrie AG Wirtschaft, Technik und Politik, 1904-1945 (Berlin Duncker and Humblot, 1990) and Peter Hayes, Industry and Ideology I.G. Farben in the Nazi Era (Cambridge Cambridge University Press, 1987).

This section is based on Morris, Acetylene Chemistry and Synthetic Rubber, pp. 281-370. For an independent, but similar account, see Peter Hayes, Industry and Ideology, pp. 148-151, 186-193, 339-340, and 347-358. 

Letter from Otto Ambros to author, 27 October 1980. For the history of the Auschwitz Buna factory, see Morris, Acetylene Chemistry and Synthetic Rubber, pp. 330-345 Peter Hayes, Industry and Ideology, pp. 347-368 the excellent thesis by Joseph Robert White, The Politics of Labor Utilization l.G. Farben, the SS and Auschwitz, Georgia State University MA thesis, 1989, and the less original work of Robert Simon Yavner, LG. Farben s Petro-Chemical Plant and Concentration Camp at Auschwitz, Old Dominion University MA thesis, 1984. Unfortunately, Deborah Dwork and Robert Jan van Pelt did not consult this literature (except for Hayes) for the chapter on l.G. Farben in their Auschwitz, 1270 to the Present (New York W. W. Norton, 1996). For a personal account, see Primo Levi, If this Man is a Man , a translation of Se questo e un uomo by Stuart Woolf (New York. Orion, 1959), also published as Survival in Auschwitz.
