دكتاتورية الشعب تاريخ ألمانيا النازية

In this up-to-date, concise, easy-to-read book, Alan E. Steinweiss is a new synthesis of the origins, development, and fall of Nazi Germany. Tracing the intellectual and cultural origins of Nazi ideology, the book chronicles the rise and eventual victory of the Nazi movement against the backdrop of the faltering Weimar Republic. The book details Germany's rapid transformation into a dictatorship, focusing on the interplay between Nazi violence and the Germans' willingness to adapt to the new regime. Steinweiss chronicles the Nazis' efforts to transform German society into what was called a "people's society," steeped in extreme nationalism, a totalitarian spirit, Nazi racist doctrine, and anti-Semitism. The result was closer to what Steinweiss calls a "people's dictatorship" than a "people's society"—an oppressive regime that brutalized the victims of its persecution, its internal opponents, and its external enemies, even as it enjoyed widespread support in German society.
