- Double-weighted statement
- This substantial 290 page (140,000 words) monograph rests on research in nine German, British, and American archives over a period of eight years. It also analyses an extensive range of printed primary sources in multiple languages. The book encompasses the Holocaust and German history between 1918 and 1945, a complex scholarly field with an enormous multi-lingual secondary literature to engage with. Each of the monograph’s six thematic chapters is equivalent to a substantial journal article. Collectively, these chapters provide an innovative new framework for scholarly analysis of perpetrators of violence.
