Poslední úprava: Bc. Veronika Kučabová (21.01.2022)
In this seminar we will analyze three key aspects of the history of Nazi Germany and the Second World War: Nazi
domination, occupation and the war economy. We will focus on Nazi military expansion until 1945. In this context
we will take closer look at the German war of annihilation (Vernichtungskrieg) and the Holocaust in the east.
Although terror and mass murder played a key role in Nazi policy, we will also study how the Nazi policy differed in
the east and west towards local populations and how this policy was connected to the war economy. The seminar
will be strongly text-based. You will be asked to read one to two texts and answer in-depth questions at each
session.
