First published in 1940, this title 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.

Like others adopting a similar position, the author believes that the terms of the Versailles treatment put Germany in an impossible position, and that the Nazis had inspired a recovery.

Developing themes that were to become commonplace in the analysis of totalitarian regimes, this title provides an account of how higher education became a means of both installing and re-enforcing the dominant state ideology.

The rise of fascism in Europe ultimately plunged the world into war and brought about the horrors of the holocaust, yet these outcomes were far from apparent to many observers in the 1930's.
