About
Theodor Schieder (11 April 1908 – 8 October 1984) was an influential mid-20th century German historian and a Nazi supporter. Born in Oettingen, Western Bavaria, he relocated to Königsberg in East Prussia in 1934 at the age of 26. He joined the Nazi Party in 1937. During the Nazi era Schieder became part of a group of German conservative historians antagonistic towards the Weimar republic. He pursued a racially oriented social history (Volksgeschichte), and warned about the supposed dangers of Germans mixing with other nations. During this time Schieder used ethnographic methods to justify German supremacy and expansion. He was the author of the "Memorandum of 7 October 1939", calling for Germanization of the recaptured Polish territories after the Invasion of Poland. His suggestions were later incorporated in the German Generalplan Ost. After the war he settled in West Germany and worked at the University of Cologne.
