Erich Neumann (b. 31 May 1892〔 — d. 1948 or 23 March 1951) was a Nazi politician. Neumann was born in Forst (Lausitz) into a Protestant family. His father was a factory owner.〔 After receiving his Abitur, Neumann studied law and economics at the universities of Freiburg, Leipzig and Halle. He served in World War I and reached the rank of First Lieutenant (Oberleutnant). In 1920, he served as governmental civil servant (ドイツ語:Regierungsassessor) in the Prussian Ministry of the Interior, and thereafter in the Essen District Office. Neumann became Senior Executive Officer (Regierungsrat) in the Prussian Ministry of Commerce in 1923.〔〔 In 1927/28, he became District President (ドイツ語:Landrat) in Freystadt (Lower Silesia), then served as Ministerial Junior Assistant Secretary (ドイツ語:Ministerialrat) again in the Prussian Ministry of Commerce. In September 1932, he was appointed Permanent Secretary (Ministerialdirektor) in the Prussian Ministry of State, where he was in charge of administrative reforms.〔 Neumann joined the Nazi Party in May 1933, four months after Adolf Hitler took power. He joined the SS in 1934, being commissioned as a Major (ドイツ語:Sturmbannführer).〔〔 In 1936, he was appointed the director of the Foreign Currency department of the Office of the Plenipotentiary for the Four Year Plan. By 1938, Neumann was promoted to undersecretary and attended Hermann Göring's meeting about the "Aryanisation" of the German economy. He represented the Ministries of Economy, Labour, Finances, Food, Transport and Armaments and Ammunition at the 1942 Wannsee Conference. Neumann requested that Jewish workers in firms essential to the war effort not to be deported for the time being. Between August 1942 and May 1945, Neumann was the general manager of the German Potassium Syndicate. He was interned and interrogated by the Allies in 1945 after the war but released due to poor health in 1948.〔〔 Some sources quote his death being in the same year,〔 however, the German Federal Archives record him as dying three years later in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, on 23 March 1951.〔 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Erich Neumann (politician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
