Produktbeschreibung

This book, first published in 1981, is a study of the social and political sources of amoral political rule in modern times. Only a moral indifference unparalleled in history made the Holocaust possible, and understanding this requires an understanding of the social forces that produced a national amorality among Germany's elites.
