Sexuality And German Fascism

The interrelationship of fascism and sexuality has attracted a great deal of interest, for some time. This collection offers fresh perspectives by leading scholars on the history of sexuality under national socialism, covering such topics as: the persecution of Jewish- gentile sex in the "race defilement" trials; homophobic propaganda and the prosecution of same-sex activity within the Wehrmacht and SS; representations of female sexuality in film; prostitution on home and battle fronts; sexual relations between Germans and foreign forced labourers; and reproductive practices among Jewish survivors. Moreover, the authors provide new insights into the relationships between Nazi sexual politics and anti-Semitism, and challenge assumptions of Nazism as sexually repressive; instead they emphasize the interrelationships between incitement to sexual activity, persecution and mass murder.Herzog, Dagmar is the author of 'Sexuality And German Fascism', published 2004 under ISBN 9781571815514 and ISBN 1571815511.
