Handbook Ideologies in National Socialism: Vol. 1: Ideology and Individuals

The Handbook Ideologies in National Socialism is also available online. Handbook Ideologies in National Socialism. Vol. 1: Ideologies and Individuals is an interdisciplinary study of the beliefs and practices that underpinned, inspired, and were inspired by the Nazi worldview. As the title suggests, these are examined not in the abstract, but rather from the perspective of the different theoreticians and practitioners of National Socialism. Eschewing a single, binding definition of Nazi ideology, the volume demonstrates that it was often interpreted differently by the actors who appear in it, and thus adds multiple new angles to the already sizable literature on the topic.
