Social outsiders in nazi german torrent

When Hitler assumed power in 1933, he and other Nazis had firm ideas about what they called a racially pure "community
ol the people." They quickly took steps against those whom they wanted to isolate, deport, or destroy. In these essays,
informed by the latest research, leading scholars offer rich histories of the people branded as “social outsiders’ in Nazi
Germany: Communists, Jews, "Gypsies," foreign workers, prostitutes, criminals, homosexuals, and the homeless, unemployed,
and chronically ill. Although many works have concentrated exclusively on the relationship between Jews and the Third Reich,
this collection also includes olten-overlooked victims ol Nazism while reintegrating the Holocaust into its wider social context.
