Im letzten Jahrzehnt des 19. Jahrhunderts, in einem sich verscharfenden radikal nationalistischen Klima, wurde Krieg zunachst als unvermeidbar und schliesslich als uberlebensnotwendig angesehen. Die Regierungszeit WilhelmsII. war gepragt von bewusster gesellschaftlicher Militarisierung und intensiver Rustung. Zwischen 1890 und 1900 wurden aber auch die Vertreter der deutschen militarischen Elite geboren, in deren Karriere sich die individuelle Erfahrung von zwei Weltkriegen, ihre Spiegelung in der kollektiven Erinnerung und das bewusste Erleben ihrer Vor-, Zwischen- und Nachkriegszeiten abbildet. Bernhard R. Kroener entwirft Militargeschichte, als Kulturgeschichte organisierter Gewaltverhaltnisse verstanden, als integralen Bestandteil der historischen Forschung."
Volume V Part II of the comprehensive and authoritative Germany and the Second World War series spans the years 1942 to 1945, and looks in closely researched detail, and against a background of growing military setbacks and disasters leading to final defeat, at the administration and ruthless exploitation of the occupied countries and of Germany's own allies, and the effect on their populations (in particular their Jews, Roma, and Sinti) and national economies. This comprehensive study of the meteoric rise to prominence of Hitler's crown prince Albert Speer, and his struggle to implement a 'total war' armaments policy in the face of opposition from the Party's Gauleiters and political rivals in the Nazi leadership, documents with a wealth of maps, diagrams, and tables the achievements of the arms drive he masterminded; a large part of this success is shown to have relied on the forced or slave labour of those under German domination. The conflicting claims of industry and the Wehrmacht for dwindling manpower resources are also considered.
This volume is concerned with developments in wartime administration, economy, and manpower resources in Germany and its occupied territories from 1939-1941. It examines the mobilization of material and personnel resources in the German sphere of power for an industrialized conduct of the war. Indissolubly linked with this issue is the question of the way in which the regime's ideology affected that mobilization process, and why the 'opportunity' which the war offered for an organizational restructuring of this sector was not taken. The authors have produced a problem-oriented account, providing - by a detailed presentation of government practice - a multitude of insights into the regime's governmental structures.
Volume V Part II of the comprehensive and authoritative Germany and the Second World War series completes the analysis (begun in Volume V/I) of the administration and exploitation of the German sphere of power and of the German war economy. The authors show how, despite military success and increasingly desperate efforts at mobilizing every resource for the war effort, it was becoming apparent that the Reich's strength was spent. The consequence was ever more ruthless oppression of the population and a frenzied elimination of 'ideological' and 'racial' opponents.
This is part one of the fifth volume in the comprehensive and authoritative series, Germany and the Second World War. It deals with developments in wartime administration, economy, and manpower resources in Germany and its occupied territories from 1939-1941. The detailed analysis is underpinned by an extensive apparatus of maps, diagrams, and tables.
