IBM and the Holocaust The Strategic Alliance between Nazi Germany and America's Most Powerful Corporation Hardcover - 2001
by Black, Edwin
Summary
IBM and the Holocaust is the stunning story of IBM’s strategic alliance with Nazi Germany -- beginning in 1933 in the first weeks that Hitler came to power and continuing well into World War II. As the Third Reich embarked upon its plan of conquest and genocide, IBM and its subsidiaries helped create enabling technologies, step-by-step, from the identification and cataloging programs of the 1930s to the selections of the 1940s.
Only after Jews were identified -- a massive and complex task that Hitler wanted done immediately -- could they be targeted for efficient asset confiscation, ghettoization, deportation, enslaved labor, and, ultimately, annihilation. It was a cross-tabulation and organizational challenge so monumental, it called for a computer. Of course, in the 1930s no computer existed.
But IBM’s Hollerith punch card technology did exist. Aided by the company’s custom-designed and constantly updated Hollerith systems, Hitler was able to automate his persecution of the Jews. Historians have always been amazed at the speed and accuracy with which the Nazis were able to identify and locate European Jewry. Until now, the pieces of this puzzle have never been fully assembled. The fact is, IBM technology was used to organize nearly everything in Germany and then Nazi Europe, from the identification of the Jews in censuses, registrations, and ancestral tracing programs to the running of railroads and organizing of concentration camp slave labor.
IBM and its German subsidiary custom-designed complex solutions, one by one, anticipating the Reich’s needs. They did not merely sell the machines and walk away. Instead, IBM leased these machines for high fees and became the sole source of the billions of punch cards Hitler needed.

The book argues that IBM's president Thomas J. Watson knowingly collaborated with Hitler's regime to provide them with punch card machines, data processing services, and technical support that enabled them to identify, track, deport, and exterminate millions of people. The book also reveals how IBM used its influence and connections to evade accountability and justice for its actions. Based on extensive research and documentation, including interviews, eyewitness accounts, internal memos, legal records, and declassified intelligence reports.
