A companion to Nazi Germany
2026
Book
For its brief existence, National Socialist Germany was one of the most destructive regimes in the history of humankind. Since that time, scholarly debate about its causes has volleyed continuously between the effects of political and military decisions, pathological development, or modernity gone awry. Was terror the defining force of rule, or was popular consent critical to sustaining the movement? Were the German people sympathetic to Nazi ideology, or were they radicalized by social manipulation and powerful propaganda? Was the 'Final Solution' the motivation for the Third Reich's rise to power, or simply the outcome? 'A Companion to Nazi Germany' addresses these crucial questions with historical insight from the Nazi Party's emergence in the 1920s through its post-war repercussions.
