The Third Reich met its end in the spring of 1945 in an unparalleled wave of suicides. Goeschel analyses the Third Reich's self-destructiveness and the suicides of ordinary people and Nazis in Germany from 1918 until 1945, including the mass suicides of German Jews during the Holocaust

Originally published in 2005, Soldiers of Labor is a systematic comparison between the labor policies of the Nazi dictatorship and New Deal America. The main subject of the book is the Nazi Labor Service (Reichsarbeitsdienst), a public work scheme that provided work and education for young men. Here, the organizational setup, the educational dimension, and its practical work are extensively examined. Originally, the institution was an instrument in the fight against unemployment at the end of the Weimar Republic. After 1933, it became a Nazi propaganda tool that ultimately became involved in the Nazi's war of extermination. This study examines the similarities and differences, the mutual perceptions, and transfers between the Nazi Labor Service and its New Deal equivalent, the Civilian Conservation Corps. Patel uncovers stunning similarities between the two organizations, as well as President Roosevelt's irritating personal interest in the Nazi equivalent of his pet agency, the CCC.

Stadt und Land Rothenburg ob der Tauber können als frühe Hochburg des Nationalsozialismus bezeichnet werden. Die Bedingungen, die Formen und die Reichweite des Regimes waren hier besonders ausgeprägt. Das Gesicht der NSDAP und seine Anziehungskraft in der westmittelfränkischen Kleinstadt und seiner Region kann allemal als Sonderfall für Franken bezeichnet werden. Im reichsweiten Vergleich erzielte die Hitler-Partei enorm hohe Wähleranteile. Die starke Präsenz des Nationalsozialismus in Rothenburg und den umliegenden Dörfern war das Ergebnis eines exzellent funktionierenden Parteiapparates. Die flächendeckende Organisationsstruktur trug erheblich zur Durchdringung der lokalen Gesellschaft bei. Die Nationalsozialisten instrumentalisierten die Stadt zum idealen Botschafter des "Dritten Reiches". Hervorstechend ist in dieser mittelfränkischen Kleinstadt die Dichte mit der sich der Nationalsozialismus bildnerisch und architektonisch manifestierte. Eine Verschmelzung der mediävalen Szenerie mit der NS-Ikonographie stilisierte Rothenburg zum Kleinod mit missionarischem Charakter. Der Mythos Rothenburg gedieh zur lebendigen Propaganda für das "Dritte Reich" und erfuhr als Kulissenstadt des "Führers" enorme Beachtung. Aufrechterhalten wurde der Mythos Rothenburg als NS-Musterstadt mittels verschiedener Formen der Gewaltherrschaft, die sich in Stadt und Land manifestierten.

By far the greatest number of photographs of Nazi sites of violence were taken by the perpetrators. Some Jews did work as official photographers in the ghettoes, but during deportations, in the camps and extermination centers, and at the sites of mass shootings, only Gestapo officers, SS men and women, or other authorized personnel were officially permitted to use cameras. In the Mauthausen concentration camp, for example, as Lukas Meissel explains in his contribution to the excellent collection of essays, Fotografien aus den Lagern des NS-Regimes. Beweissicherung und ästhethische Praxis, "only members of the so-called Erkennungsdienst (identification department) were allowed to take photographs."1 These photographs "do not reflect the reality of the camp" (45). They seldom confront us directly with Nazi violence. Instead, these pictures offer (false) images of frictionless operations, visual testimony to the efficiency of the perpetrators, usually meant to impress their superiors.

Culture was integral to the smooth running of the Third Reich. In the years preceding WWII, a wide variety of artistic forms were used to instill a Nazi ideology in the German people and to manipulate the public perception of Hitler's enemies. During the war, the arts were closely tied to the propaganda machine that promoted the cause of Germany's military campaigns. Michael H. Kater's engaging and deeply researched account of artistic culture within Nazi Germany considers how the German arts-and-letters scene was transformed when the Nazis came to power. With a broad purview that ranges widely across music, literature, film, theater, the press, and visual arts, Kater details the struggle between creative autonomy and political control as he looks at what became of German artists and their work both during and subsequent to Nazi rule
