[Concentration camp confinement in the light of a phenomenology of alienation]

Alienation is an integrational existential process. The concepts of alienation as used by various specialized scientific approaches: anomy , reification , depersonalisation , alienation (in a limited sense) refer to individual aspects of the process, which can only be understood with regard to their totality and structure. " Endt - fremdung " means the coming to be as well as the passing away of alienation within the field of integrational -anthropological understanding of "possibility" ( vide D. Wyss ) and the structural-ontological basic concept of " Veranderung " ( vide H. Rombach ), so that the " Endt - fremdung " and " Veranderung " are based on one another. The human tragedy of detainment in a concentration-camp, humiliation as well as human greatness in the radical " Entborgenheit " can well be described within integrational anthropological concepts.
