Abstract

Die Studie verknüpft zwei für das NS-Regime zentrale Aspekte: den globalen Krieg als Voraussetzung der nationalsozialistischen ";Lebensraum";-Utopie und Gesundheitspolitik, der als Instrument biologistischer Formung des ";Volkskörpers"; zentrale Bedeutung für die Gesellschaftspolitik des ";Dritten Reiches"; zukam. Winfried Süß untersucht den Krieg als intervenierenden Faktor innenpolitischer Entscheidungen und sozialer Verhältnisse. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Frage, wie sich Funktion, Handlungsspielräume und Wirkungen der Gesundheitspolitik seit dem September 1939 veränderten. Dabei werden bislang unverbundene Erkenntnisebenen zusammengeführt: zeit- und medizingeschichtliche Fragestellungen, gesundheitspolitische Prozesse und ihre sozialgeschichtlichen Folgen, zentralstaatliche, regionale und lokale Handlungsarenen. Erstmals wird das Handeln Karl Brandts, einer gesundheitspolitischen Schlüsselfigur der Kriegsjahre, umfassend dargestellt. Hitlers Begleitarzt und Generalkommissar für das Sanitäts- und Gesundheitswesen agierte an der Schnittstelle zwischen den ";heilenden";, ausgrenzenden und vernichtenden Elementen nationalsozialistischer Gesundheitspolitik - ausgestattet mit weitreichenden Kompetenzen sowohl für den Krankenmord als auch die medizinische Versorgung der Wehrmacht und Zivilbevölkerung.

Abstract

Contrary to popular belief--and despite the expulsion, emigration, or death of many German mathematicians--substantial mathematics was produced in Germany during 1933-1945. In this landmark social history of the mathematics community in Nazi Germany, Sanford Segal examines how the Nazi years affected the personal and academic lives of those German mathematicians who continued to work in Germany. The effects of the Nazi regime on the lives of mathematicians ranged from limitations on foreign contact to power struggles that rattled entire institutions, from changed work patterns to military draft, deportation, and death. Based on extensive archival research, Mathematicians under the Nazis shows how these mathematicians, variously motivated, reacted to the period's intense political pressures. It details the consequences of their actions on their colleagues and on the practice and organs of German mathematics, including its curricula, institutions, and journals. Throughout, Segal's focus is on the biographies of individuals, including mathematicians who resisted the injection of ideology into their profession, some who worked in concentration camps, and others (such as Ludwig Bieberbach) who used the "Aryanization" of their profession to further their own agendas. Some of the figures are no longer well known; others still tower over the field. All lived lives complicated by Nazi power. Presenting a wealth of previously unavailable information, this book is a large contribution to the history of mathematics--as well as a unique view of what it was like to live and work in Nazi Germany.

Abstract

In the aftermath of the attack on Pearl Harbor, U.S. politicians, policymakers, and citizens focused their desire for retribution not on the obvious target, Japan, but on Hitler's Germany. Richard Hill challenges a major point of conventional wisdom on U.S.-Axis relations to explain why the U.S. held Hitler responsible for the Japanese action—and why Hitler's December 11 declaration of war was inconsequential to the U.S. involvement in the European theater. Hill's carefully argued analysis reveals widespread acceptance in late 1941 that the route to Tokyo was through Berlin—that Germany was the overlord of Japan, as well as its co-conspirator. Despite emerging uncertainty about German guilt for Pearl Harbor, he concludes, the prevailing public opinion in the first weeks after December 7 mandated a Germany-first strategy and continued to color U.S. policy throughout the war.
