“Featuring multiple brilliant contributors, this compendium provides a wide-ranging yet in-depth examination of the transgressive power of Nazism to have an impact beyond Germany, politics, and the collapse of the Third Reich. It is an essential and timely resource for scholars and students of history, Holocaust studies, international relations, and extremist ideologies.”Ricky W. Law, Associate Professor of History, Carnegie Mellon University“An impressively wide-ranging collection of new research that brings fresh perspectives to our understanding of Nazism, locating both its origins and impact in a much wider global context, and serving as timely reminder that it was part of an entangled transnational network of fascist ideologies and movements, past and - not least - present.”Tim Kirk, Professor Emeritus of European History, School of History, Classics and Archaeology, Newcastle University
