The Second World War affected the lives and shaped the experience of millions of individuals in Germany - soldiers at the front, women, children and the elderly sheltering in cellars, slave labourers toiling in factories, and concentration-camp prisoners and POWs clearing rubble in the Reich's devastated cities. Taking a 'history from below' approach, the volume examines how the minds and behaviour of individuals were moulded by the Party as the Reich took the road to Total War. The ever-increasing numbers of German workers conscripted into the Wehrmacht were replaced with forced foreign workers and slave labourers and concentration camp prisoners. The interaction in everyday life between German civilian society and these coerced groups is explored, as is that society's relationship to the Holocaust. From early 1943, the war on the home front was increasingly dominated by attack from the air. The role of the Party, administration, police, and courts in providing for the vast numbers of those rendered homeless, in bolstering civilian morale with 'miracle revenge weapons' propaganda, and in maintaining order in a society in disintegration is reviewed in detail. For society in uniform, the war in the east was one of ideology and annihilation, with intensified indoctrination of the troops after Stalingrad. The social profile of this army is analysed through study of a typical infantry division. The volume concludes with an account of the various forms of resistance to Hitler's regime, in society and the military, culminating in the failed attempt on his life in July 1944.

Genocide and war crimes are increasingly the focus of scholarly and activist attention. Much controversy exists over how, precisely, these grim phenomena should be defined and conceptualized. Genocide, War Crimes & the West tackles this controversy, and clarifies our understanding of an important but under-researched dimension: the involvement of the US and other liberal democracies in actions that are conventionally depicted as the exclusive province of totalitarian and authoritarian regimes. Many of the authors are eminent scholars and/or renowned activists; in most cases, their contributions are specifically written for this volume. In the opening and closing sections of the book, analytical issues are considered, including questions of responsibility for genocide and war crimes, and institutional responses at both the domestic and international levels. The central section is devoted to an unprecedentedly broad range of original case studies of western involvement, or alleged involvement, in war crimes and genocide. At a moment in history when terrorism has become a near universal focus of public attention, this volume makes clear why the West, as a result of both its historical legacy and contemporary actions, so often excites widespread resentment and opposition throughout the rest of the world.

Herman Knell was nineteen and living in Würtzburg in March of 1945 when hundreds of Allied planes arrived overhead, unleashing a torrent of bombs on the city. Würtzburg's tightly packed medieval housing exploded in a firestorm, killing six thousand people in one night and destroying 92 percent of the city's structures. Despite the fact that Würtzburg had no strategic value, the city emerged from World War II second only to Dresden in material destruction inflicted from the air. The experience led Knell to years of research on the history, development, and effects of the strategy of area bombing.To Destroy a City is the result of the author's long and unrelenting investigation. His analysis of this form of warfare, which reached its zenith during World War II, covers the history and the development of wide-area bombing since 1914, examines its wartime effectiveness and the consequences. But the extra dimension that Knell's book offers is his firsthand experience of the tension, fear, tentative defiance, and, finally, utter catastrophe of being on the receiving end of overwhelming air power. For Americans, who fortunately did not experience bombing during the war, this is essential reading.

Dresden scheint eine besondere Stadt zu sein. Man sagt ihr nach, dass sie eine große Faszina tionskraft hat und dass sie es von jeher vermochte, Menschen in ihren Bann zu ziehen. In je dem Falle ist Dresden eine Stadt, in der es sich gut leben lässt und in der man sich wohl füh len kann. Dazu tragen die Bewohner der Stadt ganz wesentlich bei. Sie nehmen den Fremden freundlich auf, integrieren ihn und bieten ihm Hilfe. So durfte ich es jedenfalls schon in den ersten Tagen in der Stadt erleben, und so hat es sich innerhalb von funf Jahren in Dresden fortgesetzt. Vor diesem Hintergrund hat auch mein Forschungsprojekt alle Unterstützung er fahren, die es brauchte. Bei der Vorbereitung und Durchfuhrung des Projektes standen mir zahlreiche Menschen hilfreich zur Seite. An dieser Stelle sei all jenen Dank gesagt, die auf unterschiedlichste Weise daran mitgewirkt haben. Allen voran danke ich dem früheren Direktor des Stadtmuseums Dresden, Matthias Griebe!, und dem Direktor des Stadtarchivs Dresden, Thomas Kühler. Sie opferten mir einen Teil ihrer wertvollen Zeit und gaben mir nützliche Ratschläge. Dank schulde ich vor allem meinen Interviewpartnern, die im Rahmen von langen Interviews viel Zeit in mich investier ten und all meine Fragen geduldig und ausfuhrlieh beantworteten. Mein Dank gilt auch den unzähligen Stadtbürgern, die sich in öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln, auf Plätzen, Promenaden und in Parks (im Rahmen von ethnographischen Interviews) in Gespräche verwickeln ließen. Sie haben mir ausnahmslos bereitwillig Auskunft gegeben.

Klaus Hildebrand ist einer der bekanntesten deutschen Zeithistoriker und ausgewiesener Fachmann für die NS-Zeit.

Hildebrands Buch wendet sich an alle, die einen soliden Überblick über diese "dunklen Jahre" der deutschen Geschichte gewinnen wollen, "dunkle Jahre", in denen Deutschland Europa in die Katastrophe führte und Krieg und Terror Millionen Menschenleben kosteten.

Auf der Basis umfangreicher Quellenstudien rekonstruiert Fabian Virchow grundlegende Ideologeme der extremen Rechten sowie deren Konkretisierung im Feld der Außen-, Sicherheits- und Militärpolitik. Lesarten der extremen Rechten zu aktuellen politischen Ereignissen und Entwicklungen konfrontiert er mit gesicherten Befunden der zeithistorischen und sozialwissenschaftlichen Forschung und zeigt anhand zahlreicher Beispiele, dass die extreme Rechte in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland mit ihrer Friedensrhetorik die Durchsetzung eines völkisch arrondierten und mit umfassenden Gewaltmitteln ausgestatteten Groß-Deutschland anstrebt. Dieses soll nach weitreichender Militarisierung von Militär und Gesellschaft als imperiale europäische Ordnungsmacht und weltpolitisch als Gegenpol gegenüber den USA auftreten. In Verbindung mit neuen Befunden zur Praxeologie der extremen Rechten leistet der Band einen wichtigen Beitrag zum Verstehen des modernen Rechtsextremismus im Kontext politischer Kulturforschung.
