'Bajohr’s study, a kind of grassroot history, cannot be praised highly enough. Not only is it a superb monograph on the topic at hand, it also provides a wealth of information and insight into the inner workings of Hamburg’s economy and government, as well as on various aspects of daily life during the Nazi period. It is full of illuminating detail.'Central European HistoryBajohr’s clearly argued and carefully documented study both expands our understanding of the complex processes of ’Aryanization’ and questions previous interpretations of its timing and agents ... Perhaps most importantly, it chronicles how a large proportion of ’Aryan’ Germans came to see economic exclusion and expropriation as legitimate and desirable projects.'Patterns of Prejudice'... the first that deals with the economy of a single city ... a well-written work that would appeal to scholars and those interested in a deeper understanding of what contributed to the Holocaust.'History: Reviews of New Books'This searing book about ’Aryanisation’, the process by which the Nazis robbed Jews of their economic livelihood, presents a lucid and riveting analysis of a little investigated subject. Compassionate towards the victims of the Third Reich’s ’Aryanisation’ program and enraged by the perpetrators, Dr. Bajohr has set a new standard for Holocaust scholarship. Integrating several narrative threads - the Nazi’s economic policy, popular reactions, Jewish responses - this book is about people: people who harmed; who profited; who were robbed and exploited; who watched. Creatively conceived and meticulously documented, [this book] will become a classic work on this subject.' · Debórah Dwork, Director, Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies, Clark University'... an excellent study ... Bajohr demonstrates - in a fascinating final chapter...-the degree to which the economic embodiment of anti-Semitism reveals the Holocaust to be grubby, mundane and everyday, as well as horrific and unimaginable.'German History'Bajohr’s study, a kind of grassroots history, cannot be praised highly enough. Not only is it a superb monograph on the topic at hand, it also provides a wealth of information and insight into the inner workings of Hamburg’s economy and government, as well as on various aspects of daily life during the Nazi period. It is full of illuminating details, the presentation of which never becomes tedious, for each fact throws light on another facet of the whole.'Central European History

    The Gospel of John was long assumed to be the work of an eyewitness, usually identified as John, son of Zebedee.

  • Through the years with prince charming
    Paul du Quenoy
    The past decade has overflowed in a raging stream of contradictions. Old certainties have yielded to relentless insecurity over a time when much of the human experience got immeasurably better even as many things only ever seemed to get worse. As Paul du Quenoy’s globetrotting criticism reveals, the arts were in a ferment that matched profound and yet totally unpredicted social...
