The German People versus Hitler (RLE Responding to Fascism) Routledge Library Editions: Responding to Fascism Series

The extent to which the Nazi regime was truly representative of the German people was a key issue for external commentators. First published in 1940, The German People versus Hitler sets out to prove that the identification of ?Germany and the Third Reich, Germanism and Nazism, the German people and the Nazi Party? is a fallacy. It identifies widespread sources of opposition to the Nazi regime from all strata, including the Church and from the former socialist parties.
