Summary: | Nazi Policy on the Eastern Front, 1941 brings together eleven essays by members of an international group of mostly younger scholars with the goal of contributing to our understanding of the “cumulative radicalization” that drove Nazi policy in the Soviet Union to ever greater extremes of barbarism in 1941., Several of the essays are very valuable. Alex Kay examines the evolution of German food policy over the course of 1940–1941 in impressive detail. Even before Barbarossa, German leaders had begun to recognize that the looming economic and agricultural crisis could potentially be solved by territorial gains in Ukraine and other Soviet lands. |
