Germans and Jews: The Right, the Left, and the Search for a "Third Force" in Pre-Nazi Germany (George L. Mosse Series in Modern European Cultural and Intellectual History (Paperback)) - Softcover
Synopsis
Historian George Mosse explored a critical time in German history when thinkers of both the left and the right shared a common goal: solving the problems of contemporary society by creating a force that would eliminate both Marxism and bourgeois society-—a "third force" beyond communism and capitalism. This pervasive turn in ideology had profound effects on German history—left-wing political efforts became increasingly unrelated to reality, while the right finally discovered in fascism the "third force" it had been seeking.
