However, doubts about an active opposition role have surfaced in recent years. A litmus test for assessing the validity of this notion is provided by our discovery that four of the six core members of the anti-Nazi resistance group \u2018White Rose\u2019\u2014Sophie Scholl, Hans Scholl, Christoph Probst, and Alexander Schmorell\u2014were his students. When they were arrested, sentenced to death, and executed, he seemed to ignore this historic event, both during and after World War II\u2014in line with his belief that resistance leads to self-destruction, and research can flourish only by ignoring what happens around oneself. On the other hand, this seemingly apolitical attitude did not prevent him from making use of politics when it served his interests. Such actions included his (pseudo-)scientific justification of forced sterilization of people suffering from hereditary disorders during the Third Reich and his praise of the Nazi government\u2019s efforts to \u201ckeep races pure.\u201d As unsettling as these and some other political views and actions of Karl von Frisch are, they enabled him to carry out several critical pieces of his research agenda during the Third Reich, which three decades later earned him a Nobel Prize.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00359-024-01697-3","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,28]],"date-time":"2024-03-28T09:02:14Z","timestamp":1711616534000},"page":"145-166","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["\u201cResistance leads to self-destruction\u201d: how an (a)political strategy helped Karl von Frisch succeed during the Nazi era"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"210","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8715-9994","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"G\u00fcnther K.
