Unemployment was perhaps the major problem confronting European
society at the time in which this book was first published in
1987, and is arguably still the case today. This collection of
essays by British and German historians contributes to the debate
by taking a close look at unemployment in the Weimar Republic.
What groups were most severely affected, and why? How did they
react? How effective were welfare and job creation schemes? Did
unemployment fuel social instability and political extremism? How
far was unemployment a cause of the collapse of the Weimar
Republic and the triumph of the Third Reich? Did the Nazis solve
the unemployment problem by peaceful Keynsianism or through
massive rearmament?
