AUTHORITIES in the southern German state of Bavaria say they are
considering legal ways to prevent Hitler’s Mein Kampf being
published when its copyright expires at the end of 2015.

The Bavarian culture ministry said in a statement it would “see
what legal options we have available to deal with the problem of
the free publication of Hitler’s book Mein Kampf after the
copyright runs out”.

Hitler’s manifesto Mein Kampf (My Struggle),
written in 1924 while the future dictator was languishing in a
Bavarian prison, is both a vicious anti-Semitic tract and rambling
memoir.
