Summary "Vier Jahre Politischer Mord" by Emil Julius Gumbel is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the politically motivated murders that occurred in Germany following World War I, particularly during the tumultuous period of revolutionary unrest and the early Weimar Republic. The book presents a detailed examination of individual cases of political killings, illustrating both left- and right-wing violence during this transformative time. The opening of the book outlines the scope and methodology of Gumbel's investigation into political murder cases from November 1918 to March 1919. He emphasizes the importance of meticulous documentation, drawing from legal records, witness accounts, and journalistic reports to provide a comprehensive account of these violent acts. Gumbel sets the stage for a deeper exploration of specific incidents, such as the assassination of political figures like Kurt Eisner and the murders of various individuals identified as political dissidents. He establishes a grim atmosphere, reflecting on the grim realities of justice—or the lack thereof—implying systemic failures in accountability for the perpetrators of these political crimes.
