New Chapter Published in Edited Volume!!!

Writer's picture: Jacob FlawsJacob Flaws

So excited to see another publication come out this month. This time, it is a chapter entitled "Settlers of the Reich: The Germans of Hitler's Frontier" that I wrote for the edited Routledge volume, The Eastern Front: War, Myth, and Memory, which was just published on Nov. 14th! I'm thrilled for this chapter, it is easily the most original new work I've done since my research on Treblinka.


My chapter takes a look at a very understudied topic - the Volksdeutsche (Ethnic Germans) who participated in the larger Nazi resettlement plans for Eastern Europe. I use their own voices to reconstruct how they understood their resettlement efforts and discover that they fully bought into Nazi ideology regarding their purpose in reconstructing the "thousand-year" Reich. Part exciting adventure, part hardship and adversity, their experiences of being part of the new frontier of the Nazi empire were also marked by the vanishing of Poles and Jews being cleansed from the territories they were to inhabit.


The book is a little pricey, but I'd really encourage you to check it out - it is an excellent volume! You can find a coupon code: GINOV24 works on the Routledge site for 20% off, OR you can find the eBook version on Amazin for around $40.
