Most studies on National Socialism concentrate on the phase of the NS-dictatorship between 1933 and 1945. Michael Wildt’s introduction comprises the National Socialist history from the First World War to the fall in the Second World War and covers the rise of the Weimar Republic, coming into power, change of the German society and mass murder. This historical study shows people’s expectations of National Socialism as well as the readyness to become part of a racist national community. Apart from the topics anti-bourgeois, nation- and war community the author also offers a modern and critical introduction to positions in current research.
