Abstract:This article situates the experiences of Baltic, Jewish, and Polish Displaced Persons within the overlapping stories of occupation policy, refugee circumstances, the gathering Cold War, and the process of rebuilding Germany. Using evidence from both the British and American Zones of Occupation, it explains the symbiotic processes of labeling the various groups of the uprooted and the shifting feelings of empathy that occupation authorities experienced for them. The connections between logistics and policy during mass population movements figure in this account, but the author focuses on shortages in housing and employment to trace reevaluations of who was most deserving of assistance.

谁是“值得”？1945年至1948年，同情心如何推动有关被占领德国的连根拔起的政策决策

摘要：本文将波罗的海，犹太人和波兰流离失所者的经历置于占领政策，难民情况，日益加剧的冷战以及重建德国的过程的重叠故事中。它使用了来自英国和美国占领区的证据，解释了对被打倒的各个群体进行标记的共生过程，以及占领当局对他们的同情心的转变。人口迁移过程中后勤与政策之间的联系体现在这个帐户中，但是作者着重于住房和就业短缺，以追溯对谁最应该得到帮助的重新评估。
