Since the mid-'80s, a subtler but arguably more insidious form of revisionism has come from such reputable German scholars as Ernest Nolte and the late Andreas Hillgruber, both leading participants in the Historikerstreit , a quarrel among German historians over the uniqueness and meaning of the Holocaust.
Although Lukacs has some--in my view, rather too much--compassion for Nolte's and Hillgruber's "bitterness against [the] anti-nationalist consensus among German historians," he concludes that "their explanations amounted to a kind of relativization" to the point of "defending Hitler."
Hillgruber added his own provocative twist by proclaiming that German historians were obliged to "identify" with the German soldiers on the Eastern front who were protecting Germany from Bolshevism.
