An Essay on Mankind
This is a new release of the original 1957 edition.
The Policies of Genocide (RLE Nazi Germany & Holocaust)
One of the darkest passages in German history is examined in this book (originally published in 1986) by five leading German historians of the Third Reich. The authors establish that a direct link existed between the widespread deaths of Soviet prisoners of war and the extermination of Jews and implicate the German army in the policies of genocide to a far greater degree than was previously thought. The situation of the inmates of camps is analysed and evidence provided of resistance action even among those facing death.
Inside Terrorist Organizations
Describing the internal life of terrorist organizations, these essays contend that no description of terrorist behaviour is adequate without a grasp of the deep tensions which often characterize the groups and without appreciating how firmly implanted in our culture terrorist traditions have become, since the middle of the 19th century.
Nazi Rule and Dutch Collaboration
This book examines the manifold forms and motives for collaboration between the Dutch and their German occupiers during the Second World War, by looking at the main areas of political and economic life under occupation. It investigates the policies of accommodation during the first phase of Nazi rule and analyses the desperate survival tactics of the prewar parties, trade unions and the press.

The Historiography of World War I from 1918 to the Present
From the Treaty of Versailles to the 2018 centenary and beyond, the history of the First World War has been continually written and rewritten, studied and contested, producing a rich historiography shaped by the social and cultural circumstances of its creation. Writing the Great War provides a groundbreaking survey of this vast body of work, assembling contributions on a variety of national and regional historiographies from some of the most prominent scholars in the field. By analyzing perceptions of the war in contexts ranging from Nazi Germany to India’s struggle for independence, this is an illuminating collective study of the complex interplay of memory and history.

The Aesthetics of Loss
An examination of German women's art produced during the First World War that places the artists' visual responses within the civilian war experience. Traces the thematic evolution of women's art from visual expressions of support for the national war effort to more nuanced and distraught representations of grief over wartime death.
Architects of Annihilation
Architects of Annihilation follows the activities of the demographers, economists, geographers and planners in the period between the disorderly excesses of the November 1938 pogrom and the fully-effective operation of the gas chambers at Auschwitz in summer 1942. The authors, both journalists and historians, argue that this group of intellectuals, often combining academic, civil service and Party functions, made an indispensable contribution to the planning and execution of the Final Solution. More than that, in the economic and demographic rationale of these experts, the Final Solution was only one element in a far-reaching programme of self-sufficiency which privileged the German Aryan population.
