| Zusammenfassung: | Part I. Procreating: Origins: nature, essence, genesis -- Alienation: acculturation and denaturing -- Restoration: renaissance -- Part II. Fighting: "All life is struggle" -- The war within: fighting the Volksfremde -- The war outside: "Harshness makes the future kind" -- Part III. Reigning: The international order of Westphalia and Versailles: Finis Germaniae -- The Reich and the colonization of the European east -- The millennium as frontier The scale and depth of Nazi brutality seem to defy understanding. What could drive people to fight, kill, and destroy with such ruthless ambition? Johann Chapoutot says we need to understand better how the Nazis explained it themselves, and in particular how steeped they were in the idea that history gave them no choice: it was either kill or die.-- |
