Course Description
This course examines a familiar period in German history from what may be an unfamiliar perspective: that of the economy. Between 1914 and 1945 Germany's economy charted many of the extremes of modern capitalism: three currencies, two global wars, hyperinflation, sovereign debt, depression, rearmament, autarky, racial expropriation, conquest, plunder, and saturation bombing. The impact of these experiences continues to shape German and European policy making today. This course introduces students to the basic principles of economic history while considering economics as a social science. The course focuses on the social, political, military, and cultural influences on, and repercussions of, economics during this period.
