All of these methods were aimed against the greatest goods of the human being, such as freedom and life. People were condemned to displacement from their homeland, forced to do slave labor, deprived of the bare necessities of existence, forbidden to obtain education or participate in cultural life. Furthermore, imponderable material damages were inflicted.

The article presents German economic policy on the so-called territories annexed to the Reich in the years 1939-1945. The study provides a synthetic overview of the major sources, objectives, stages and means used by the German occupants in implementing their goals in selected areas and branches of economy. The economic policy which was realized on those lands was an important element of building the German 'living space' (Lebensraum) in the East of Europe. Its sources were of an ideological, economic and political character. Racism and a glorification of country life became a foundation for the policy of extermination of foreign ethic groups, Germanization of annexed lands, deportation of their hitherto inhabitants and settlement of German peasants. Factors such as treating the 'lands annexed to the Reich' as colonies in terms of economy, natural conditions, the doctrine of the 'Great Space Economy' (Grossraumwirtschaft) and war demands led to a restructuring of the economy of those territories so as to make them complementary to the economy of the so-called Old Reich accompanied by maximal exploitation of their production and population potential. The plunder of property that Germans practiced on mass scale, a policy of concentrating production, escalation of predatory economy and destruction resulting from military operations led to an economic degradation and significant civilizational regress of those areas.

The negative anthropology attempts to describe the human being on the basis of the concrete historical project of his annihilation. The project is connected to a new organization of work, whose exemplar can be seen in extermination camps, but which continues in a diluted form in liberal democracy: it relies on making the working beings invisible, letting them disappear. What is behind this mechanism of making invisible? In every community, in every people, this concerns the relation of the governing “whole” and the governed part. The governed, excluded part provides for the others and is the condition of possibility of the whole; this condition, however, remains hidden, unnoticed. This violent origin must remain hidden in order for the community to endure. The issue is not only the subjugation of the governed by those who govern. Also, those who govern are dependent on the governed. Time and again they perceive the desire for autonomy. If they cannot sublimate it, then they can only hate the dependence with all the forms of the other who remind them of it. However, it is the other that can show also the way out of violence.
