Introduction
Before World War I, Germany was Europe's richest and most powerful economy, and anti-Semitism was a distinctly marginal force in politics. Yet the Nazis, who began as a group of extremists and thugs, transformed Germany into a one-party dictatorship in a matter of years, leading a highly educated people to moral, material, and cultural ruin and despair.
This book explores the psychology of Nazi party members through German history, society and culture, restores the process of the Nazis' seizure of power, reveals why opponents failed to stop them, and vividly reproduces the chaos, economic disaster, violence, and social polarization that led to the advent of the Third Reich.
A detailed analysis of the process of the Nazis' rise to power provides a mirror for today - although the Nazis ruled Germany for only twelve years, they profoundly influenced the course of 20th century history and left a deep imprint on the thinking of the modern world. It is still necessary to explore the psychology of Nazi party members, understand why Nazi opponents failed to stop them, understand the nature and operation of the Nazi dictatorship, and learn lessons from it to avoid history repeating itself.
Finding the roots of fascism and populism in Germany's unique history - the rise of the Nazis cannot be simply regarded as a unique product of the German nation. Its complex economic and social factors can plunge any country into the abyss of violence. This book details how Germany, which experienced World War I, the Treaty of Versailles, hyperinflation and the Great Depression, gradually moved towards autocratic rule; how the political, economic and social development during the Weimar Republic provided a breeding ground for the brewing of radical ideas.
A panoramic history of Nazi Germany written by a famous historian for ordinary readers. Based on detailed historical materials and rich details, Evans has brilliantly achieved a perfect combination of vivid language, rigorous analysis and powerful explanation, and objectively and accurately presents all aspects of German society before the rise of the Nazis from a neutral perspective.
Media including Publishers Weekly, Kirkus Reviews, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Guardian all recommended it.
