The reduction to alternatives of \u2018politics\u2019 and \u2018economics\u2019 both impermissibly narrows the concept of \u2018politics\u2019 and operates on a crude and misleading dichotomy between \u2018state\u2019 and \u2018society\u2019. The tenor of more recent work on the Nazi economy has been to suggest instead that the closely interwoven aims and interests of the Nazi leadership and of German capital influenced and affected each other, making it difficult to separate a specifically \u2018political\u2019 and specifically \u2018economic\u2019 sphere, and therefore to distinguish a clear \u2018primacy\u2019. In William Carr\u2019s words, \u2018ideological, strategic, and economic factors are too closely intermeshed in a country\u2019s foreign policy to permit of a clinical separation\u2019, while Hans-Erich Volkmann outrightly rejects the question of \u2018primacy\u2019 as now a redundant one.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Ian Kershaw, <em>The Nazi Dictatorship<\/em>, (London: Bloomsbury, 2015), 65.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A starting-point of analysis is to question whether the polarization into \u2018primacy of politics\u2019 or \u2018primacy of economics\u2019 does not amount to an extreme over\u00adsimplification of a complex structural interrelationship between the policies of the Nazi State and the interests &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/wehle.ru\/wp\/?p=6436\">Weiterlesen <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6436","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wehle.ru\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6436","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wehle.ru\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wehle.ru\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wehle.ru\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wehle.ru\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6436"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wehle.ru\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6436\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wehle.ru\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6436"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wehle.ru\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6436"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wehle.ru\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6436"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
