The history of National Socialism as movement and regime remains
one of the most compelling and intensively studied aspects of
twentieth-century history, and one whose significance extends far
beyond Germany or even Europe alone. This volume presents an
up-to-date and authoritative introduction to the history of Nazi
Germany, with ten chapters on the most important themes, each by an
expert in the field. Following an introduction which sets out the
challenges this period of history has posed to historians since
1945, contributors explain how Nazism emerged as ideology and
political movement; how Hitler and his party took power and remade
the German state; and how the Nazi 'national community' was
organized around a radical and eventually lethal distinction
between the 'included' and the 'excluded'. Further chapters discuss
the complex relationship between Nazism and Germany's religious
faiths; the perverse economic rationality of the regime; the path
to war laid down by Hitler's foreign policy; and the intricate and
intimate intertwining of war and genocide, with a final chapter on
the aftermath of National Socialism in postwar German history and
memory.
