Free to Obey - How the Nazis Invented Modern Management

Johann Chapoutot

Beschreibung

What if the rules of modern capitalism were written during the Third Reich?  Reinhard Höhn (1904-2000) was a commander of the SS, one of Nazi Germany’s most brilliant legal minds, and an archetype of the fervid technocrats and intellectuals that built the Third Reich. Following Germany’s defeat, after a few years in hiding, he emerged in the early 1950s as the founder and director of a renowned management school in Lower Saxony.  Höhn’s story wouldn’t be very different from that of many other prominent Nazis if not for the fact that a vast number of Germany’s postwar business leaders—more than 600,000 executives—were educated at his management school.  In this fascinating book, Johann Chapoutot, one of France’s most brilliant historians, traces the profound links between Nazism and the principles of modern corporate management, our definitions of success, and a concept of personal freedom that masks rigid hierarchical structures of power and control.  “One of the most gifted European historians of his generation.”—Timothy Snyder, New York Times best-selling author of On Tyranny

Elites Unmasked - Lifting the...

John Harpoon

The power brokers of society have always operated behind a veil, their influence stretching across governments, corporations, and cultural institutions. These elites, shrouded in secrecy, wield disproportionate control over the mechanisms that shape our lives. This book seeks to unmask their agendas, exploring how they maintain power and why their influence often goes unchecked. 
The roots of elite societies can be traced to historical alliances forged in the shadows of royal courts, industrial revolutions, and military campaigns. Over centuries, these groups have refined their ability to operate discreetly, creating intricate systems of influence that extend across borders. Far from the eyes of the public, they engineer policies and direct resources to serve their own interests, often at the expense of collective progress. The structures they’ve built are intentionally opaque, ensuring their movements are imperceptible to most. 
At the heart of this hidden web lies the art of control. Through wealth, connections, and manipulation of information, elites craft narratives that preserve their dominance. Media empires, think tanks, and lobbying organizations function as tools to shape public perception. Decisions that impact millions are made in exclusive gatherings, while the outcomes are sold as necessary, even inevitable. The general public, often unaware of these forces, becomes complicit in maintaining the status quo simply by not questioning it.
