The rise and fall of comradeship : Hitler's soldiers, male bonding and mass violence in the twentieth century
Kühne, Thomas, 1958-2017
Books
Investigating how the ideals of kameradschaft (comradeship) developed within Germany as a collective yearning for national unity, this book explores how a divided society came to terms with the traumas of war and defeat. Across the 20th century the gospel of comradeship not only provided the foundation for mass murder, but also for democratic peace post-1945.
