Summary: | Hitler’s Compromises: Coercion and Consensus in Nazi Germany is a welcome addition to the scholarly literature on the decision-making process of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party and state bureaucracies. As he did in his book on the 1943 Rosenstrasse protest in Berlin over the deportation of Jewish spouses in mixed marriages, Nathan Stoltzfus challenges popular perceptions of the Nazi state as an uncompromising “behemoth” that invariably resorted to force to quash any sign of popular opposition to its wishes. He also tempers, once again, the notion that ordinary Germans always responded obediently to the wishes and policies of their Führer and his dictatorship. |
