Kurzfassung:
Notes the revival of political history in a broadened form that recognizes the impact of politics on human life (e.g. the lives of Jews in Nazi Germany) and the importance in politics of culture, ideas, and ideology (e.g. antisemitism). Discusses recent works by such authors as Mosse, Friedländer, Breitmann (on Himmler), Gerhard Weinberg (on the history of the Second World War) and others who exemplify this trend, particularly in attempting to explain the genesis of the Final Solution and place it in context as a central Nazi war aim. Also discusses the interplay of politics and ideology in works dealing with the Nazi past, again particularly the Holocaust, and in postwar manifestations of antisemitism in both West and East Germany.
