| Итог: | “Do you want total war?” This question, which Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels addressed to a crowd of more than 10,000 Germans in the Berlin Sportpalast in February 1943, met with a resounding affirmative response. The event symbolized one of the most significant developments in the history of Nazi propaganda. Even in the aftermath of military defeats and the escalation of Allied bombing raids, the Third Reich succeeded in rallying public support for the defense of the fatherland. The question of how the Nazis “completely mobilized the ground on which they stood” (p. 4) to legitimize and protect an embattled state surrounded by a host of enemies stands at the heart of the engaging volume Life and Death in the Third Reich. |
