In this up-to-date, succinct, and highly readable volume, Alan E.
Steinweis presents a new synthesis of the origins, development, and
downfall of Nazi Germany. After tracing the intellectual and
cultural origins of Nazi ideology, the book recounts the rise and
eventual victory of the Nazi movement against the background of the
struggling Weimar Republic. The book details the rapid
transformation of Germany into a dictatorship, focusing on the
interplay of Nazi violence and the readiness of Germans to
accommodate themselves to the new regime. Steinweis chronicles Nazi
efforts to transform German society into a so-called People's
Community, imbued with hyper-nationalism, an authoritarian spirit,
Nazi racial doctrine, and antisemitism. The result was less a
People's Community than what Steinweis calls a People's
Dictatorship - a repressive regime that acted brutally toward the
targets of its persecution, its internal opponents, and its foreign
enemies even as it enjoyed support across much of German society.
