The =91=92=92Scheider commission=92=92=92 was a post-World War II German co=
mmission of
the [[Federal Ministry for Displaced Persons, Refugees and War Victims]],
headed by [[Theodor Scheider]], which in the early 1960=92s published a fiv=
e
volume work on the population transfer of Germans from central and Eastern
Europe. The head of the commission, Theodor Scheider, had previously been
closely associated with the Nazi settlement policy in occupied countries in
Eastern Europe. Scheider in turn was supervised by [[Theodor Oberlander]]
(who also wrote the introduction to the published works of the commission),
the head of the Ministry, who had been Scheider=92s collegue in the Nazi [[
Ostforschung*]]* and who is considered by some historians to be among the
academics who laid the intellectual foundation for the [[Final
Solution<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Solution>]].




Scheider chose as members of the commission individuals, such as [[Werner
Conze]] (who had also previously advocated "dejewification" of territory
occupied by Nazi Germany) and [[Hans Rothfels]] (a German nationalist who i=
n
the interwar period advocated German domination of Eastern Europe and the
enserfment of its population) who were =93consciously committed to =85
propagandistic activity in their government=92s service=94. The propagandis=
tic
aims of the German government at the time were to utilize the commission=92=
s
work to keep the question of the territories lost by Germany as a result of
World War II open.  Hans Rothfels was the person who had originally propose=
d
Scheider as head of the editorial staff, having been his teacher, and a key
intellectual influence on him in the inter war period.
Younger historians, such as [[Martin Broszat]] (who researched Yugoslavia)
and [[Hans-Ulrich Wehler]] (who helped research Romania), who were later to
break with the tradition of Scheider and Conze, served as research
assistants. However, Scheider was involved in all aspects of the work of th=
e
commission, from securing typewriters to specifying by what criteria
documents should be judged as admissible. Part of Scheider=92s purpose was =
to
make sure that the expulsions would be established as =93one of the most
momentous events in all of European history and one of the greatest
catastrophes in the development of the German people=94. He sought to make
sure that publishing of =93selected documents=94 would bring to light event=
s
which he felt had so far been =93hushed up=94. Scheider also hoped that the
propagandistic work of the commission could convince the allies to change
their stance on Germany=92s post war eastern borders with Poland.  Adolf
Diestelkamp, another member of the commission, expressed the hope that the
work of the commission could be a =93decisive factor in our fight to win ba=
ck
the German east=94, that is, territories which Germany ceded to Poland afte=
r
World War II. The commission relied heavily on interest groups, including
expellee organizations, to collect their sources.
