The story of Hitler’s aggression has been told and retold since that moment. Wages of Destruction offers a new way of understanding Hitler’s aggression as a reaction to a world historic shift – the rise of the United States as the looming hegemon of the twentieth century. For Germans of Hitler’s generation, the dominance of the Anglo-American coalition had revealed itself starkly in World War I. Hitler’s anti-Semitic conspiracy theory was a direct reaction to the double shock of the victory of the Western powers and the collapse of Russia into Bolshevik revolution. With liberalism’s worldwide power triumphant, National Socialism mounted a bid to unseat liberal hegemony before it became completely dominant. To launch that insurgent challenge Hitler’s regime undertook a military and economic mobilization of extraordinary scale, the greatest and most rapid mobilization of resources in peacetime the capitalist world had ever seen. Wages of Destruction is the history of that dramatic mobilization effort. Over the arc from 1933 to 1945 it traces how Hitler’s vision of an epic racial struggle, to be waged in the form of World War II, transformed every aspect of the German economy, how the tensions unleashed by that mobilization shaped the most fundamental decision making of the regime, and how that war economy was eventually brought crashing down. | ||
