Bringing together some of the most prominent contemporary historians of modern Germany and innovative newcomers to the field, this volume offers new perspectives on key debates surrounding Germany's descent into and emergence from the Nazi catastrophe. It explores relations between society, economy and international policy, focusing in particular on relations between elites and the wider society, and it provides new insights into the complex continuities and discontinuities of modern German history. A series of case studies is complemented by an extensive historiographical section.
