Zusammenfassung: | "For big business in Germany and around the world, Hitler and his National Socialist party were good news. Business was bad in the 1930s, and for multinational corporations Germany was a bright spot in a world suffering from the Great Depression. As Jacques R. Pauwels explains in this book, corporations were delighted with the profits that came from re-arming Germany, and then supplying both sides of the Second World War. Recent historical research in Germany has laid bare the links between Hitler's regime and big German firms. Scholars have now also documented the role of American firms--General Motors, IBM, Standard Oil, Ford, and many others--whose German subsidiaries eagerly sold equipment, weapons, and fuel needed for the German war machine. A key roadblock to America's late entry into the Second World War was behind-the-scenes pressure from US corporations seeking to protect their profitable business selling to both sides. Basing his work on the recent findings of scholars in many European countries and the US, Pauwels explains how Hitler gained and held the support of powerful business interests who found the well-liked one party fascist government, ready and willing to protect the property and profits of big business. He documents the role of the many multinationals in business today who supported Hitler and gained from the Nazi government's horrendous measures."-- |

Pauwels Toronto James Lorimer & Company Ltd., Publishers [2017] © 2017 304 Seiten Illustrationen txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier "For big business in Germany and around the world, Hitler and his National Socialist party were good news. Business was bad in the 1930s, and for multinational corporations Germany was a bright spot in a world suffering from the Great Depression. As Jacques R. Pauwels explains in this book, corporations were delighted with the profits that came from re-arming Germany, and then supplying both sides of the Second World War. Recent historical research in Germany has laid bare the links between Hitler's regime and big German firms. Scholars have now also documented the role of American firms--General Motors, IBM, Standard Oil, Ford, and many others--whose German subsidiaries eagerly sold equipment, weapons, and fuel needed for the German war machine. A key roadblock to America's late entry into the Second World War was behind-the-scenes pressure from US corporations seeking to protect their profitable business selling to both sides. Basing his work on the recent findings of scholars in many European countries and the US, Pauwels explains how Hitler gained and held the support of powerful business interests who found the well-liked one party fascist government, ready and willing to protect the property and profits of big business. He documents the role of the many multinationals in business today who supported Hitler and gained from the Nazi government's horrendous measures."-- Geschichte 1933-1945 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftsbeziehungen (DE-588)4068297-3 gnd rswk-swf Nationalsozialismus (DE-588)4041316-0 gnd rswk-swf Großindustrie (DE-588)4306874-1 gnd rswk-swf Wiederbewaffnung (DE-588)4065962-8 gnd rswk-swf Multinationales Unternehmen (DE-588)4075092-9 gnd rswk-swf Großkapital (DE-588)4519116-5 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftliche Elite (DE-588)4372106-0 gnd rswk-swf Außenpolitik (DE-588)4003846-4 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftspolitik (DE-588)4066493-4 gnd rswk-swf Deutschland (DE-588)4011882-4 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd rswk-swf Corporations / Corrupt practices / History / 20th century Corporations / Moral and ethical aspects / History / 20th century International business enterprises / History / 20th century World War, 1939-1945 / Economic aspects Germany / Economic policy / 1933-1945 Germany / Foreign relations / 1933-1945 / Economic aspects Deutschland (DE-588)4011882-4 g Großindustrie (DE-588)4306874-1 s Multinationales Unternehmen (DE-588)4075092-9 s Wiederbewaffnung (DE-588)4065962-8 s Wirtschaftspolitik (DE-588)4066493-4 s Außenpolitik (DE-588)4003846-4 s DE-604 Großkapital (DE-588)4519116-5 s Wirtschaftsbeziehungen (DE-588)4068297-3 s USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 g Geschichte 1933-1945 z 1\p DE-604 Nationalsozialismus (DE-588)4041316-0 s Wirtschaftliche Elite (DE-588)4372106-0 s 2\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, EPUB 978-1-4594-0987-3 Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=030160176&sequence=000002&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
