"A máquina de investigação secreta de Hitler, finalmente desvendada. A Gestapo foi a polícia secreta de Adolf Hitler. Parte de um todo poderoso sistema tipo Big Brother dentro do estado totalitário nazista, seu objetivo principal era caçar e exterminar os inimigos do povo . Desenvolvido a partir de uma detalhada pesquisa em arquivos nunca tornados públicos, este livro retrata de forma viva e fascinante as histórias perturbadoras de pessoas ordinárias e extraordinárias que caíram na rede de intrigas da Gestapo, seja como informantes ou equipe. Revela, também, os métodos eficientes e o sangue-frio dos oficiais que trabalharam para a organização." The Gestapo succeeded in instilling fear and creating the impression it was omniscient. Professor of International History at Liverpool John Moores University Frank McDonough has written an easy-to- read and well researched book. McDonough restricts his study to the Gestapo in Germany. He argues it wasn't a big organisation; if anything, understaffed and therefore unable to be proactive. He is not an apologist for the despicable organisation it was and he reveals interesting information. La Gestapo, la policía secreta de estado, fue el principal instrumento del terror en la Alemania nazi. El profesor McDonough nos lo muestra en un libro extraordinario, en que ha utilizado la documentación conservada para mostrarnos desde abajo, desde la experiencia de los propios ciudadanos, la naturaleza real del terror al que estaban sometidos. No se trata aquí de los campos de exterminio ni de las ejecuciones en masa, sino de la experiencia cotidiana de la persecución contra determinados grupos religiosos, contra los comunistas, los marginados sociales, los judíos…Un terror que tenía una de sus principales armas en la denuncia de vecinos, compañeros de trabajo o familiares. McDonough reconstruye este mundo a partir de las historias concretas de hombres y mujeres comunes que fueron víctimas de unos crímenes por los que la Gestapo se libró después de castigo. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de uitgeversreeks(en)
"Written with access to previously unpublished records, this is the fullest and most definitive account available on Hitler's secret police, the Gestapo. The book illustrates how, despite its material constraints, this group was able to extend its reach widely and quickly by manipulating and colluding with the general public during World War II, making ordinary German citizens complicit in the rendition of their associates, friends, colleagues, and neighbors. Though it was a powerful institution, it was not an all-powerful institution, and McDonough also relates the fascinating and underreported accounts of a cross-section of ordinary and extraordinary people who opposed the Nazi regime and its oppressive governance. The Gestapo will provide a chilling new doorway into the everyday life of the Third Reich and give powerful testimony from the victims of Nazi terror, while also challenging popular myths about the Gestapo and its inner workings."--Amazon.com.
