In 1993 Christopher R. Browning wrote "Ordinary Men: Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland. As the back cover states: "Ordinary man is the true story of reserve police battalion 101 of the German order police, which was responsible for mass shootings as well as roundups of Jewish people for deportation to Nazi death camps and pole in the 1942. Browning argues that most of the men of RPB one oh one we're not fanatical Nazis but ordinary middle Dash aged working-class men who committed these atrocities out of a mixture of motives, including the group dynamics of conformity, deference to authority, role adaptation, and the altering of moral norms to justify their actions."

Pr Larry Kirkpatrick reacts to this grim book from a Christian standpoint and wonders aloud about the operation of the same kinds of forces in world events we have experienced in the last three years.
