The radical right in Germany : 1870 to the present

Lee McGowan
"The Radical Right in Germany takes a unique look at the development of right-wing extremism through the four very divergent political regimes in Germany from 1870 to the present. In a clear and accessible manner, the book: accounts for the origins and rise of right-wing extremism from the early years of the Bismarckian system established in 1870, to Germany's defeat in World War One; traces its rise under the Nazi Party in the 1920s and considers Nazism's impact on Germany under the Third Reich; and analyses its role and the significance of right-wing extremist movements in modern Germany."--BOOK JACKET
