Warum begeisterten sich Millionen von Menschen für Adolf Hitler? Wieso konnten sie sich so verführen lassen? Alles nur Vergangenheit? Durch Interviews mit ehemaligen HJ-Funktionären, SS-Offizieren und NSDAP-Mitgliedern - 24 Männer und 19 Frauen - zeigt Stephan Marks, dass der Nationalsozialismus seine Anhänger begeisterte, indem er ihre Gefühle ansprach, sich ihre emotionale Bedürftigkeit zunutze machte - nicht ihren Verstand. Vor allem Schamgefühle, Kriegstraumata, psychische Abhängigkeiten wurden und könnten auch heute genauso instrumentalisiert werden, so die erschreckende Botschaft des Buches.

Gegenübertragungs-Reaktionen können genutzt werden um latente Interview-Inhalte zu erkennen. Dies wird beschrieben anhand eines Beispiels aus der Arbeit des Forschungsprojekts Geschichte und Erinnerung. In diesem Projekt wurden Interviews mit Männern und Frauen, die Hitler und den Nationalsozialismus bejaht und aktiv mitgetragen hatten (normalen NS-Mitläufern und -Tätern) durchgeführt und ausgewertet.

This book is concerned with the history of the idea of human rights. It offers a fresh approach that puts aside familiar questions such as 'Where do human rights come from?' and 'When did human rights begin?', for the sake of looking into connections between debates about the rights of man and developments within the history of capitalism.

"One of the most successful Wall Street investors of all time provides practical insight and keen analysis on how to track, and react to, the ups and downs of the stock market. Marks reveals the hidden logic in carefully pinpointing market trends so that every investor can profit. "When I see memos from Howard Marks in my mail, they're the first thing I open and read. I always learn something." -Warren Buffett Economies, companies, and markets operate according to patterns or cycles. These cycles arise from naturally occurring phenomena in everyday business, and to a large extent, from the simple ups and downs of human psychology and behavior. When should you pull out of the market? When should you stay in? These fundamental psychological influences-including greed and fear-can and do profoundly affect investors. If you carefully study past cycles, understand their origins and import, and remain alert for the next up or down cycle, you won't have to reinvent the wheel in order to understand every investment environment. And you're less likely to be blind-sided by unexpected events. By following Marks's insights-which are drawn from his memorable memos to clients-you can master these recurring patterns for your own financial gain and psychological benefit."
