This is precisely this economic problem that is discussed here with a rare luxury of detail, taking into account the various themes related to the topic and highlighting the role of some major personalities. But let's say it right away, to enjoy the "lesson" it is desirable to have a minimum knowledge of macroeconomic mechanisms. If not we can always do deadlock on too sharp danalyses elements in parallel because the author develops an ever-based economy arguments but accessible to all nor nignorant the role of doctrine or the importance of the struggles of influence within Nazi appliance. It is of course irrelevant to penetrate the dune autopsy meanders over 600 pages long, but to fulfill the purpose of our review we will try to summarize the main thing den without prejudicing the interest of reading.
As a preamble, as the author grows, we must give up our Euro-centric vision and fortiori franchouillard this war 39/45. For Hitler lAmérique was the only opponent worthy of the great Reich (Great Britain remaining in a position of variable geometry from large enemy bound to his cousin doutre-Atlantic or potential ally in a share of the global pie) Quoiquil be, while coating the uncle Sam clothes of "eternal Jewish Version 1937" which Roosevelt had become the factotum, the Führer dreamed for her for dune Reich also evident than the Yankees, with the new frontier of his Lebensraum ever further to the East. To achieve this goal lAllemagne was coldly planned the extermination of 30 million "dindiens", Polish, Ukrainian, and Russian second-class race which Jews and gypsies located at the bottom of the ladder of racial values serve as guinea pig lexpérimentation Technology the massacre.
But for the great dawn of Germanic gods rises in the East had to be taken short of opponent before letting him time to react. Hitting when the military potential is at its maximum under the constraints of production (raw material, labor, technology, firepower). There is was no alternative, no remedial assignment. To achieve maximum productivity as the first lhumain field equations were set up to study without any qualms the optimal point of balance between need Doeuvre hand and assessment of logistics costs and constraints induced "loutillage" human. In short assess defeated quota to exterminate. The answers provided by economic statistics were without appeal, we had to go very fast, missed the launch window, cétait lose fail. Also merging into its first success, the Führer let go his bulldogs on these subhuman army of red, playing replay version of "like 40". But his Russian roulette shot was fatal. Bogged down in the mud, trapped by winter, wanton in its logistics, out of resource and Doeuvre hand Teutonic machinery halted and especially delayed, gave time to the US bulldozer to get in working order. We know the rest of the events, which here and Completion after they are put back into the economy.
Incidentally some ideas are challenged, such as dune under-equipped French army, especially with antediluvian tanks. Ultimately the rise of Nazism and léclatement inevitable conflict that it engendered, seen under the microscope economy offers us a global perspective dune war that would restrict a lon last throes of colonial archaisms. Yet seen in this new light it marks in many ways the beginning of the end of ideology as a pretext for conquest, and devotes the first line up of the economy free of any subterfuge to clearly express the timeless realities. It is this modern view, current, clear of doctrinal artifice that is dissected in this book, perhaps unique case and all masterly way. An extraordinary book, but standout who will not read effortlessly.
