Book Synopsis The Construction of a National Socialist Europe during the Second World War by : Raimund Bauer
Download or read book The Construction of a National Socialist Europe during the Second World War written by Raimund Bauer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-14 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the Second World War, the term ‘Europe’ featured prominently in National Socialist rhetoric. This book reconstructs what Europe stood for in National Socialist Germany, analyses how the interplay of its defining elements changed dependent on the war, and shows that the new European order was neither an empty phrase born out of propaganda, nor was it anti-European. Tying in with long-standing traditions of German European, völkisch, and economic thinking, imaginations of a New Order became a central category in contemporary political and economic decision-making processes, justifying cooperation as well as exploitation, violence, and murder.

Book Synopsis Making the New Europe by : M. L. Smith
Download or read book Making the New Europe written by M. L. Smith and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume evaluates the notion of European Unity in a period when European identity was subjected to the destructive consequences of Nazi and Fascist domination of much of the Continent. By presenting the competing visions of transformation and reconstruction played out during the war years the book aims to provide broader-based and more complex insights into forces that shaped the post-war period than those in conventional accounts that locate the thinking about European unity only in the years after 1945.
Book Synopsis Why Did the National Socialist Party in Germany Come Into Power? by : Marion Luger
Download or read book Why Did the National Socialist Party in Germany Come Into Power? written by Marion Luger and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2001 in the subject History Europe - Germany - National Socialism, World War II, grade: 1,00, University of Sussex, language: English, abstract: In order to explain the rise of National Socialism in interwar Germany, historians have proceeded from various assumptions. Their theories have ranged from the notion of an evil disposition inherent in the German character to the very differing one of the Germans as victims of the malefactor Hitler and his system. For a serious investigation about the origins of the Nazi movement, however, these two extreme standpoints have to be relocated. Both presumptions tend to consider National Socialism as an incident that erupted suddenly and without any relation to historical circumstances. Yet, Fischer points out that "human events in time and place are not inexplicable occurrences, wholly unexpected and unconnected to past forms of behaviour". Consequently, we have to consider the roots of the ideology "National Socialism" (section II). In section III, I will try to comprehend the evolution of "National Socialism" as a political movement. Section IV reveals the link between those two aspects in the person of Adolf Hitler and the way he promoted both. Finally, the contribution of the German population to the rise of the NSDAP will be investigated (section V).
Book Synopsis Nazism, Fascism and the Working Class by : Timothy W. Mason
Download or read book Nazism, Fascism and the Working Class written by Timothy W. Mason and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995-03-09 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays, four of which are published in English for the first time, represents the life's work of the historian Tim Mason, one of the most original and perceptive scholars of National Socialism, who pioneered its social and labour history. His provocative articles and essays, written between 1964 and 1990, exhibit a combination of empirical rigour and theoretical astuteness which made them landmarks in the definition and elaboration of major debates in the historiography of National Socialism. These ten essays collect together Mason's most significant writings, including discussions of the domestic origins of the Second World War, the role of Hitler, and the character of working-class resistance, as well as his pathbreaking study of women under National Socialism, and examples of comparative work on fascism and Nazism. A complete bibliography of his publications is also appended.
Book Synopsis Germany and the Second World War: Volume IX/I: German Wartime Society 1939-1945: Politicization, Disintegration, and the Struggle for Survival by : Ralf Blank
Download or read book Germany and the Second World War: Volume IX/I: German Wartime Society 1939-1945: Politicization, Disintegration, and the Struggle for Survival written by Ralf Blank and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2008-07-03 with total page 1074 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second World War affected the lives and shaped the experience of millions of individuals in Germany - soldiers at the front, women, children and the elderly sheltering in cellars, slave labourers toiling in factories, and concentration-camp prisoners and POWs clearing rubble in the Reich's devastated cities. Taking a 'history from below' approach, the volume examines how the minds and behaviour of individuals were moulded by the Party as the Reich took the road to Total War. The ever-increasing numbers of German workers conscripted into the Wehrmacht were replaced with forced foreign workers and slave labourers and concentration camp prisoners. The interaction in everyday life between German civilian society and these coerced groups is explored, as is that society>'s relationship to the Holocaust. From early 1943, the war on the home front was increasingly dominated by attack from the air. The role of the Party, administration, police, and courts in providing for the vast numbers of those rendered homeless, in bolstering civilian morale with 'miracle revenge weapons' propaganda, and in maintaining order in a society in disintegration is reviewed in detail. For society in uniform, the war in the east was one of ideology and annihilation, with intensified indoctrination of the troops after Stalingrad. The social profile of this army is analysed through study of a typical infantry division. The volume concludes with an account of the various forms of resistance to Hitler's regime, in society and the military, culminating in the failed attempt on his life in July 1944.
Book Synopsis France and the Nazi Menace by : Peter Jackson
Download or read book France and the Nazi Menace written by Peter Jackson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2000-10-26 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: France and the Nazi Menace examines the French response to the challenge posed by National Socialist Germany in the years 1933-1939. It focuses on the relationship between the intelligence on German intentions and capabilities and the evolution of French national policy from the rise of Hitler in 1933 to the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939. Based on extensive archival research, it considers the nature of the intelligence process and the place of intelligence within the French policy making establishment during the inter-war period. The central argument in the book is that the German threat was far from the only challenge facing French national leaders in an era of economic depression and profound ideological discord. Only after the national humiliation at the Munich Conference did the threat from Nazi Germany take precedence over France's internal problems in the making of policy.
Book Synopsis Hitler's Brudervolk by : Geraldien von Frijtag Drabbe Künzel
Download or read book Hitler's Brudervolk written by Geraldien von Frijtag Drabbe Künzel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first academic book on Dutch colonial aspirations and initiatives during WWII. Between the summers of 1941 and 1944, some 5,500 Dutch men and women left their occupied homeland to find employment in the so-called German Occupied Eastern Territories: Belarus, the Baltic countries and parts of Ukraine. This was the area designated for colonization by Germanic people. It was also the stage of the "Holocaust by Bullets," a centrally coordinated policy of exploitation and oppression and a ruthless anti-partisan war. This book seeks to answer why the Dutch decided to go there, how their recruitment, transfer and stay were organized, and how they reacted to this scene of genocidal violence. It is a close-up study of racial monomania, of empire-building on the old continent and of collaboration in Nazi-occupied Europe.
Book Synopsis Refugees From Nazi Germany and the Liberal European States by : Frank Caestecker
Download or read book Refugees From Nazi Germany and the Liberal European States written by Frank Caestecker and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The exodus of refugees from Nazi Germany in the 1930s has received far more attention from historians, social scientists, and demographers than many other migrations and persecutions in Europe. However, as a result of the overwhelming attention that has been given to the Holocaust within the historiography of Europe and the Second World War, the issues surrounding the flight of people from Nazi Germany prior to 1939 have been seen as Vorgeschichte (pre-history), implicating the Western European democracies and the United States as bystanders only in the impending tragedy. Based on a comparative analysis of national case studies, this volume deals with the challenges that the pre-1939 movement of refugees from Germany and Austria posed to the immigration controls in the countries of interwar Europe. Although Europe takes center-stage, this volume also looks beyond, to the Middle East, Asia and America. This global perspective outlines the constraints under which European policy makers (and the refugees) had to make decisions. By also considering the social implications of policies that became increasingly protectionist and nationalistic, and bringing into focus the similarities and differences between European liberal states in admitting the refugees, it offers an important contribution to the wider field of research on political and administrative practices.
Book Synopsis Revisiting the National Socialist Legacy by : Oliver Rathkolb
Download or read book Revisiting the National Socialist Legacy written by Oliver Rathkolb and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the mid-1990s, political, legal, and historical debates about Nazi theft and confiscation of property, the use of slave labor during World War II, and restitution and compensation have reemerged. Revisiting the National Socialist Legacy presents completely new historical research on these issues conducted worldwide. This volume responds to concern about Holocaust era assets in Europe, the United States, and Latin America. It focuses on both reexamination of the history of National Socialist property theft and employment of forced labor in the wartime economy, and the compensation and restitution solutions advanced in various European and Latin American countries since 1945. While the question of Nazis in exile and the memories of survivors are explored, attention is focused on the role of numerous historical commissions and the tension between judicial processes, media coverage, historical scholarship, and politics. The book is divided into five parts: "At the Nexus of Justice, Media Coverage, Historical Scholarship and Politics"; "Commissioned History"; "Research on Slave and Forced Labor"; "National Socialist Theft: Banking, Industry, Insurance and Works of Art"; and "History as Catharsis." "[A]n excellent volume. It shows the wisdom of creating the national historical commission such as CEANA in Argentina, established in part as a national response to the two major bombings of Jewish institutions in the country. Clearly these commissions have led to the examination of archives that otherwise might have continued to lie dormant. This volume is not the end of the story[b]ut it has highlighted some promising new areas of research."--John T. Pawlikowski, professor of social ethics and director, Catholic-Jewish Studies Program, Catholic Theological Union "[C]ompletely new findings from research on Nazi looting of property and exploitation of slave and forced labor during World War 2..."--Austrian Information Oliver Rathkolb is co-director of the Ludwig Boltzmann Institut fr Geschichte und Gesellschaft, Vienna, research director of the Democracy Center, Vienna, research coordinator of the Bruno Kreisky Forum for International Dialogue, and assistant professor at the Institute for Contemporary History of the University of Vienna.

Book Synopsis Social Harmony in National Socialist Germany by : John R. Webb
Download or read book Social Harmony in National Socialist Germany written by John R. Webb and published by Steven Books. This book was released on 2015-02-11 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many people it is an enigma that the people of pre-war Germany under the leadership of Adolf Hitler should have been described as the happiest people in Europe. Almost everybody in the world has been told that the National Socialist government was wicked and oppressive. What is the truth of the matter? Perhaps this book will give its readers a glimpse, at least, of the truth. Certainly in 1933 Britain was one of the richest nations on earth with a huge Empire which contained all the foodstuffs and raw materials she could ever require. Yet at the same time the masses of her people lived in terrible slum housing and were malnourished from the lack of good food. What they needed more than anything else was the opportunity to work. To become ill was often a death sentence as there was no free health service. Farming and agriculture was depressed as few had the money to buy the food they needed and as a result crops were often ploughed back into the earth because those who were desperate for them had not the money with which to purchase them - and no opportunity to earn any money. The great capitalist crisis predicted by the Marxists has arrived. The system had failed and something needed to be done - as so clearly expressed by the then Prince of Wales. Germany by comparison had nothing. She had to pay huge financial reparations as a result of the First World War. She has been stripped of all her colonies and much of her territory in Europe had been passes to other nations such as Poland, France and Czechoslovakia. She had no gold reserves or any assets. What she did have was the will to change. She had an industrious population who were willing to work - when given the opportunity. Hitler gave the German people work and bread. To overcome all her problems she had to revert to a barter system to import whatever she could not produce at home. Many other great reforms were implemented. This was only possible by the great loyalty and confidence shown by the German folk towards their Leader. How was this loyalty gained?. This book goes a long way to explain how and why the German folk followed Hitler through thick and thin. In good times and bad - until the very end.
