One must confront an uncomfortable truth: the antisemitism that propelled the Nazi regime was not some primordial aberration but a meticulously forged weapon, honed from the dross of European prejudice into a blade of state policy.

Produktbeschreibung
One must confront an uncomfortable truth: the antisemitism that propelled the Nazi regime was not some primordial aberration but a meticulously forged weapon, honed from the dross of European prejudice into a blade of state policy. "The Origins of Nazi Antisemitism: A Study in Ideology and Policy" dismantles the facile narrative of inevitable barbarism, revealing instead how ideologues like Rosenberg and Goebbels transmuted völkisch mysticism and economic scapegoating into a coherent doctrine that justified expropriation and extermination. Far from mere rhetoric, this was ideology in action-subsidized by industrial barons and sanctified by jurists who recast ancient libels as modern science, all while the Weimar collapse provided fertile soil for its unchecked bloom. To ignore this alchemy is to court its recurrence under new guises.Delve into the archival shadows where policy met prejudice: the 1933 civil service purge that purged Jews from public life, not as spasm but as blueprint; the Nuremberg Laws of 1935, codifying racial pseudoscience into statute with the cold precision of a ledger entry. This volume traces the threads from Hitler's Viennese rants to the Wannsee Conference's banal efficiencies, exposing how antisemitic ideology infiltrated every crevice-from school curricula that poisoned youth with racial hierarchies to economic decrees that starved Jewish enterprises under the banner of autarky. No apologia here, but a stark reckoning: the Nazis' genius lay not in invention but in amplification, turning whispers of exclusion into symphonies of annihilation, with complicit silence from intellectuals who prized stability over ethics.In an age where echoes of ethnic essentialism resound from populist podiums, why feign surprise at history's reprises? "The Origins of Nazi Antisemitism" equips the discerning reader with unflinching analysis to pierce contemporary veils-be it migration panics or identity politics laced with exclusionary zeal.
