Adolf Hitler

Hans-Ulrich Thamer

Biography of a Dictator

To this day, Hitler and his charismatic rule still inspire an unfortunate amount of fascination and there are enough books written about his reign to fill entire libraries. In this new, slim political biography, Hans-Ulrich Thamer succinctly sums up what is currently known about Hitler’s leadership and specifically focuses on the Connection between staging and power and consensus and violence.

Thamer, a renowned expert on German National Socialism, provides a clear and comprehensive picture of how the cult of the Führer along with a skillful political reaction to society’s expectations become the basis of Hitler’s policy. Together, these strategies allowed him to wear the mask of the People’s Chancellor, gain an unprecedented amount of power and lead a singularly destructive campaign against internal and external enemies that were quite purposely defined by ideology—an ever-present danger that remains relevant today.
