How’s the Eastern APA going? I almost tore my hair out when a commentator on a paper which completely misunderstood Marx said “I agree with Kant rather than Marx” that the liberal state is the superior ethical form of society.

Just arrived in Baltimore for the APA Eastern. Disappointed to hear of the last minute cancellation of the SPEP panel this year.

This is your reminder that forced labor (e.g. soviet POWs and abducted Eastern European civilians, mostly polish) made up ~25% of the agricultural work force in the Third Reich. ~2.7 of 10-11 million. This isn’t even touching on the SS’s separate leasing of slaves to make the camps profitable.
