内容简介:
There have been many histories of World War II and many analyses of the Nazi Party. But what was it like actually to live under the Nazi regime; what was life like under the Führer? Inside Hitler's Germany attempts to answer these questions. The book looks at all aspects of life under the Nazis and takes a viewpoint that includes the early 1930s, when Nazism brought economic benefits and before the full horrors of the racism at the heart of the regime were revealed. The role of women and children in the Nazi state, the changing face of popular culture and high art, the position of industry, the part played by the army, and the integration of the Nazi Party itself nto German life are covered fully. Important ques-tions, such as the attitude of ordinary Germans to racist policies and the nature of the German resist-ance to Hitler, are also comprehensively dealt with.
Much of the material covered is chilling, but it is also revealing and bears a striking resemblance to events in the late twentieth century in various states around the world. The book concludes with an examination of the fate of Germany in the last years of the war, when the entire population was subject to Allied attack and the nation was crushed by the war.
The book's illustrations are particularly interesting,as they open up windows and provoke responses that mere words cannot: young girls giving the Nazi salute; Hermann GOring signing autographs for adoring women in a Berlin night club; crowds of Germans jeering at Jews; and starving German refugees at the end of the war. This is an absorbing and illuminating study.
