Working towards the Fuhrer brings together leading historians
writing on the Third Reich, in honour of Sir Ian Kershaw, whose own
work, along with that of the contributors to this volume has done
much to challenge and change our understanding of the way Nazi
Germany functioned. Covering issues such as the legacy of the world
wars, the female voter, propaganda, occupied lands, the judiciary,
public opinion and resistance, this volume furthers the debate on
how Nazi Germany operated. Gone are the post-war stereotypes of a
monolithic state driven forward by a single will towards war and
genocide. Instead there is a more complex picture of the regime and
its actions, one that shows the instability of the dictatorship,
its dependence on a measure of consent as well as coercion, which
recognises the constraints on political action, the fickleness of
popular attitudes and the ambiguous, ephemeral nature of
acclamation and opposition alike. This is a remarkable collection
of essays by leading historians in the field that will undoubtedly
be welcomed by students and lecturers of German History. -- .
