Overview
What if the rules of modern capitalismĀ were written during the Third Reich?
Reinhard Hƶhn (1904-2000) was a commander of the SS, one of Nazi Germanyās most brilliant legal minds, and an archetype of the fervid technocrats and intellectuals that built the Third Reich. Following Germanyās defeat, after a few years in hiding, he emerged in the early 1950s as the founder and director of a renowned management school in Lower Saxony.
Hƶhnās story wouldnāt be very different from that of many other prominent Nazis if not for the fact that a vast number of Germanyās postwar business leadersāmore than 600,000 executivesāwere educated at his management school.
In this fascinating book, Johann Chapoutot, one of Franceās most brilliant historians, traces the profound links between Nazism and the principles of modern corporate management, our definitions of success, and a concept of personal freedom that masks rigid hierarchical structures of power and control.
āOne of the most gifted European historians of his generation.āāTimothy Snyder, New York Times best-selling author of On Tyranny
