Inside IG Farben: Hoechst during the Third Reich

摘要

Inside IG Farben tells the story of Hoechst's surrender to the NSDAP, the Gestapo, and other elements of the Nazi regime. Previous studies of IG Farben and its main members, the chemical giants BASF, Bayer, and Hoechst, have provided little insight into the lives and attitudes of their managers and employees because of gaps in the surviving archival records. Stephan Lindner's examination of Hoechst's records has filled one of the gaps and enabled him to reveal in a series of well-documented biographical sketches of Hoechst's employees how broadly and thoroughly Nazi ideology dominated Hoechst's leadership from 1933 to 1945.
