Overview
El suicidio de Hitler, el 30 de abril de 1945, inició una reacción en cadena entre los altos cargos nazis.
Muchos de los más cercanos colaboradores del Führer siguieron su ejemplo y eligieron la muerte; el primero de ellos, Goebbels, con toda su familia. Se estima que en 1945 al menos doscientos líderes nazis se suicidaron para evitar ser capturados por los soviéticos, eludir el castigo de los Aliados o por negarse a aceptar la caída del Tercer Reich.
El suicidio como «solución final» para la élite nazi es un fenómeno poco estudiado que Philippe Valode analiza en este libro a partir de seis casos ejemplares: los de Rommel, Hitler, Goebbels, Himmler, Hess y Göring. Son casos paradigmáticos que arrojan luz sobre muchos otros, los de miles de administradores territoriales, funcionarios, profesionales de todo tipo o fabricantes comprometidos, oficiales o trabajadores de los campos de concentración que, al término de la guerra, también prefirieron morir.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Hitler's suicide on April 30, 1945, set off a chain reaction among Nazi officials.Many of the Führer's closest collaborators followed his example and chose death; the first of them, Goebbels, with his entire family. It is estimated that in 1945 at least two hundred Nazi leaders committed suicide to avoid being captured by the Soviets, to evade punishment from the Allies or for refusing to accept the fall of the Third Reich.
Suicide as a "final solution" for the Nazi elite is a little-studied phenomenon that Philippe Valode analyzes in this book based on six exemplary cases: those of Rommel, Hitler, Goebbels, Himmler, Hess and Göring. These are paradigmatic cases that shed light on many others, those of thousands of territorial administrators, civil servants, professionals of all kinds or committed manufacturers, officers or workers of the concentration camps who, at the end of the war, also preferred to die.
