Through a close analysis of events in the Third Reich, Preparata unveils a startling history of Anglo-American geopolitical interests in the early twentieth century. He explains that Britain, still clinging to its empire, was terrified of an alliance forming between Germany and Russia. He shows how the UK, through the Bank of England, came to exercise control over Weimar Germany and how Anglo-American financial support for Hitler enabled the Nazis to seize power. This controversial study shows that Nazism was not regarded as an aberration: for the British and American establishment of the time, it was regarded as a convenient way of destabilising Europe and driving Germany into conflict with Stalinist Russia, thus preventing the formation of any rival continental power block. Guido Giacomo Preparata lays bare the economic forces at play in the Third Reich, and identifies the key players in the British and American establishment who aided Hitler's meteoric rise. 606 $aNational socialism 607 $aGreat Britain$xForeign economic relations$zGermany 607 $aUnited States$xForeign economic relations$zGermany 607 $aGermany$xForeign economic relations$zGreat Britain 607 $aGermany$xForeign economic relations$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNational socialism. 676 $a337.43041 700 $aPreparata$b Guido Giacomo$0991507 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454720503321 996 $aConjuring Hitler$92269083 997 $aUNINA
