Beschreibung
A provocative and penetrating analysis that sheds new light on one of the most mysterious and historically troubling puzzles. Why Germans? Why Jews? Countless historians have grappled with these questions, but few have come up with such original answers as the idiosyncratic German historian Götz Aly. He traces the prehistory of the Holocaust from the 19th century to the rise of the Nazis in 1933 and shows that German antisemitism was – and this has been overlooked until now – largely driven by material interests rather than racial or religious intolerance. Aly surprisingly and controversially demonstrates that the roots of the Holocaust are deeply intertwined with the German quest for greater social equality. The author's portrayal of this fateful social dynamic opens a new perspective on the greatest crime in history and is sure to spark passionate debate for years to come.
