This eye-opening book highlights the role of elites in constructing systems of persecution and extermination during the Holocaust.
Being highly educated or living within a certain social class doesn’t prevent us from being lured into destructive systems, especially when they operate to our benefit. The perception that the Holocaust was largely a crime carried out by ill-educated thugs acting on nationalistic hysteria and xenophobic prejudice is a myth. Leaders from many sectors of society, including industry, science, and religion came to support and enable the Nazi government, often due to the ways in which they were able to profit and benefit from the policies of persecution and genocide. With both a social science and historical approach, Lethal Elites highlights and assesses the ways in which the influence, training, and expertise of the most powerful and best educated were used in service to the genocidal agenda of the National Socialist Regime.

They collaborated on a paper presented at the Pacific Sociological Association meetings in 2015 titled: Legitimizing Mass Killing:Social Elites, Genocide, and the Manufacture of Acceptance. This led to the development and drafting of the current submission of Lethal Elites.
