This book is a linguistic-cultural study of the emergence of the Jewish ghettos during the Holocaust. It traces the origins and uses of the term "ghetto" in European discourse from the sixteenth century to the Nazi regime.
It examines with a magnifying glass both the actual establishment of and the discourse of the Nazis and their allies on ghettos from 1939 to 1944. With conclusions that oppose all existing explanations and cursory examinations of the ghetto, the book impacts overall understanding of the anti-Jewish policies of Nazi Germany.

The Italian reports on the Jews of Salonika are curious in another way: they employ the term “ghetto” in the language in which it was first coined, more than four centuries earlier, but with a different sense. The Jews’ confinement to these three ghettos was explicitly in preparation for their deportation, so that they were in.

Ghetto into a new form of quarantine for the ominous masses of Ostjuden, perceived as a threat to the Germans and to human existence in general. But despite the change in the meaning of the concept of a ghetto – the new sense it received and its expansion far beyond anything ever meant by “ghetto” in the past, including the appalling living conditions – it remained within the conceptual space of traditional anti-Semitism. Did this tradition also lead to the systematic and comprehensive campaign.
