  • An Analysis of Christopher R. Browning's Ordinary Men

    Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland

Was there something rotten in the German soul? Or was it – as Christopher Browning argues in this ... En savoir plus

  • An Analysis of Daniel Jonah Goldhagen's Hitler's Willing Executioners

    Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust

    Collections series The Macat Library
    Daniel Goldhagen's study of the Holocaust offers conclusions that run directly counter to those reached by Christopher Browning, whose book Ordinary Men is also the subject of a Macat analysis.

    Version Longue

    1 heures 51 min

    Four social groups brought down the French monarchy. ¶Why? Because in 1789 each of these very different groups had compelling reasons to defy royal authority.
