Description
Richard Evans examines the ways our understanding of Nazi Germany have evolved in the 21st century. This collection of essays explores new historical perspectives on the Third Reich, including its place within the broader context of imperialism and the global operations of companies like Volkswagen and Krupp. Evans investigates how historians have come to see the Holocaust as part of a larger pattern of genocide, with parallels and similarities in other countries and at other times. He argues that memory must be subject to close scrutiny by history if it is to stand up to examination, and that history's implications for collective cultural memories of Nazism must be spelled out with precision and passion. Through his characteristic compelling style, Evans sheds light on the complexities of the Third Reich's legacy, offering a nuanced and thought-provoking exploration of how our understanding of this period has changed over time.
