The Nazi Worker is the second in a three-volume project on the figure of the worker and, by extension, questions of class in twentieth-century German culture. It is based on extensive research in the archives and informed by recent debates on the politics of emotion, the end of class, and the future of work. In seven chapters, the book reconstructs the processes by which National Socialism appropriated aspects of working-class culture and socialist politics and translated class-based identifications into the racialized communitarianism of Volksgemeinschaft (folk community).

In den vergangenen Jahren hat die gesellschaftliche und rechtspolitische Debatte rund um das Thema Whistleblowing weiter an Fahrt aufgenommen.

Hierdurch trat erstmals im nationalen Recht ein einheitliches Schutzgesetz zugunsten von Whistleblowern in Kraft. Gerade die Strafbarkeitsrisiken im öffentlichen Dienst waren bisher im Vergleich zu denen in der Privatwirtschaft nicht vollständig aufgearbeitet worden. In der Arbeit wird der bisherige Forschungsstand unter Bezugnahme auf die Auswirkungen des nationalen Hinweisgeberschutzgesetzes erörtert. Auch weitere grundlegende Fragen, wie beispielsweise zur Reichweite von privilegierungswürdigen Inhalten und zur Person des Whistleblowers, werden unter Berücksichtigung der Besonderheiten des öffentlichen Diensts beantwortet.
William W. Kibler is one of the most productive and versatile medievalists of his generation. Some scholars and students think of him primarily as a specialist in the medieval epic, whereas others consider him to be an Arthurian scholar. He is of course both, but he is also much more: a consummate philologist and editor of texts and also a prolific and accomplished translator. Above all, those who know him best know him as an extraordinarily generous and modest man. The present volume represents an effort by thirty medievalists, specialists in fields as diverse as William Kibler’s interests, to indicate our respect for him, aptly described in the foreword as “scholar, teacher, friend.”
