Anthony Kauders

Opis

This revisionist account challenges the view that anti-Semitism was imposed on a majority of moderate Germans following Hitler's rise to power. Anthony Kauders argues that the Weimar Republic was instrumental in changing people's attitudes towards the Jews. The author studies the common man's reaction to the "Jewish Question" in two towns, Dusseldorf and Nuremberg, between 1910 and 1933.

Recenzje

Kauders' work makes a significant contribution to the current historiography on the prehistory of the Holocaust ... The quantity of material mustered is impressive and ensures that none of the points raised are without a weight of information to support them ... those interested in a regional study that disputes some of Goldhagen's globalist theories would also find this book interesting.
