While often confidently referred to, the 'fateful' role played by the German nobility is rarely, if ever, investigated in any real detail. Nazis and Nobles now fills this gap, providing the first systematic investigation of the role played by the nobility in German political life between Germany's defeat in the First World War in 1918 and the consolidation of Nazi power in the 1930s. As Stephan Malinowski shows, the German nobility was too weak to prevent the German Revolution of 1918 but strong enough to take an active part in the struggle against the Weimar Republic. In a real twist of historical irony, members of the nobility were as prominent in the destruction of Weimar democracy as they were to be years later in Graf Stauffenberg's July 1944 bomb plot against Hitler. In this skilful portrait of an aristocratic world that was soon to disappear, Malinowski gives us for the first time the in-depth story of the German nobility's social decline and political radicalization in the inter-war years - and the troubled mésalliance to which this was to lead between the majority of Germany's nobles and the National Socialists."--Publisher's description. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 610 20 Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter-Partei. 650 0 Nobility |xPolitical activity |zGermany. 651 0 Germany |xPolitics and government |y1918-1933. 651 0 Germany |xPolitics and government |y1933-1945. 610 27 Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter-Partei. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00532681 650 7 Nobility |xPolitical activity. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01038283 650 7 Politics and government. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 Germany. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01210272 610 27 Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter-Partei. |2nli 650 7 Nobility |xPolitical activity |zGermany. |2nli 651 7 Germany |xPolitics and government |y1918-1933. |2nli 651 7 Germany |xPolitics and government |y1933-1945. |2nli 648 7 1918-1945 |2fast 700 1 Andrews, J. |q(Jon) |c(Translator), |etranslator. 776 08 |iElectronic version:Malinowski, Stephan. |tNazis & nobles. |bFirst edition. |dOxford ; New York, NY : Oxford University Press, 2020 |z9780192580160 |w(OCoLC)1226764331 852 0 |bscstacks |hDD239 |i.M35 2020
