जर्मन लोग नाजी अनुभव का दोष एक ऐसे व्यक्ति पर मढ़ना पसंद करते हैं जिसे बलि का बकरा बनाया जा सके। यदि आप सारा दोष उस पर डाल देते हैं, तो आप जर्मन जनता को किसी भी जिम्मेदारी से मुक्त कर देते हैं।

The Germans tend to like to blame the Nazi experience on one man who can be scapegoated. If you pile all the blame onto him, you exonerate the German masses from any responsibility.

अनिश्चितता के समय में, हम नियतिवादी विश्व दृष्टिकोण से दूर जाने लगते हैं। और जब हम अपने कार्यों के लिए नैतिक आधार खोजने की कोशिश करते हैं, तो हम खुद की तुलना सबसे बुरे दौर, यानी नाजी काल से करते हैं। यह नैतिक निश्चितता की तलाश है, यह कहकर कि, "भले ही हम इन दिनों अच्छा नहीं कर रहे हैं, कम से कम हम तीसरे रैह तो नहीं हैं।" जो सांत्वना देने वाला या डराने वाला हो सकता है। इसके पीछे हमेशा एक वर्तमान एजेंडा होता है।

In times of uncertainty, we tend to move away from deterministic world views. And when we try to find moral footing for our actions, we compare ourselves to the foil of all foils, the Nazi period. It's a quest for moral certainty by saying, "Even if we're not doing great these days, at least we're not the Third Reich." Which can be consoling or alarmist. There's always a present-day agenda behind it.

दिलचस्प बात यह है कि जब आप युद्ध के बाद की अवधि में जाते हैं, तो किताबों और फिल्मों में कई कहानियाँ यह निष्कर्ष निकालती हैं कि यदि आपने हिटलर को मार दिया, तो आप वास्तव में इतिहास को और खराब कर देंगे।

What's interesting is that when you get into the post-war period, many of the narratives in books and movies conclude that if you killed Hitler, you're actually going to make history worse.

अमेरिकी और ब्रिटिश उत्तरदाता जर्मन लोगों को बख्शना नहीं चाहते। उनका तर्क है कि यदि आप हिटलर से छुटकारा पा लेते, तो हिटलर के अलावा कोई और नेता उभरता और, जर्मन राष्ट्रवाद के संरचनात्मक स्थिरांक के कारण, वह जर्मन राष्ट्रीय भावना का फायदा उठाता और चाहे जो भी हो, वैसी ही घटनाएं पैदा करता।

Americans and British respondents don't want to let the German people off the hook. They make the case that if you get rid of Hitler, some other leader apart from Hitler would have emerged and, because of the structural constant of German nationalism, would have exploited German national feeling and produce the same kind of events no matter what.

मूल रूप से हिटलर को मारने का आधार गहरी दर्दनाक भावनाओं से प्रेरित था, यह कल्पना करना कि काश चीजें अलग होतीं, तो हम खुद को हर तरह के दुख से बचा सकते थे। हाल ही में इसे एक मजाकिया रूप दे दिया गया है। जैसे-जैसे हम आगे बढ़ते हैं, त्रासदी और समय मिलकर कॉमेडी बन जाते हैं...

Originally the premise of killing Hitler was fueled by deep traumatic feelings of wishing and fantasizing that if only things had been different, we could have spared ourselves all kinds of suffering. More recently it's been turned into a comedic trope. As we go forward, tragedy plus time equals comedy...

ज्यादातर लोग हाई स्कूल में इतिहास को एक के बाद एक उबाऊ तथ्यों के रूप में अनुभव करते हैं। लेकिन अगर आप सोच सकें, "वाह, क्या होता अगर अमेरिका द्वितीय विश्व युद्ध में शामिल नहीं होता?", तो आप काल्पनिक संभावनाओं से मंत्रमुग्ध हो सकते हैं।

Most people experience history as one damn fact after another in high school. But if you can wonder, "Wow, what if the US hadn't gotten involved in World War II?", you can become enthralled by the imaginary possibilities.

मैंने प्रति-तथ्यात्मक इतिहास के अध्ययन से जो सीखा है, वह यह है कि अनपेक्षित परिणामों का नियम हमेशा लागू होता है, चाहे आप अपनी योजना में कितने भी सुरक्षित क्यों न हों। हमें इतिहास के रिकॉर्ड के साथ वैसे ही जीना होगा जैसा वह है, चाहे हमें यह पसंद हो या न हो।

What I have learned from studying counterfactual history is that the law of unintended consequences always kicks in no matter how secure you are in your plan. We have to live with the historical record as it is, like it or not.
