Name:	Behemoth: The Structure and Practice of National Socialism, 1933-1944
Product Code:	9781566638197
Description:	By Franz Neumann
Product Detail:	Franz Neumann's classic account of the workings of Nazi Germany, first published in 1942 and expanded in 1944, was immediately recognized as a groundbreaking investigation. To this day the book has remained a stimulus to inquiry and debate. “The provocative and controversial central argument, Peter Hayes writes in his introduction, is that the Third Reich neither expressed a consistent ideology nor possessed a coherent structure.” His insights into the structure of the Nazi state have to some extent been eclipsed by their own success: subsequent research on the Nazi period has tended to absorb the lessons of Neumann’s study while often losing sight of their subtlety and originality. He suggested that the Nazi organization of society involved the collapse of traditional ideas of the state, of ideology, of law, and even of any underlying rationality.
