Post by Lee J. Carter (@carterforva): "The history of Nazis holding rallies in left-wing areas of Weimar Germany, instigating street fights, and then telling the press that only they could save Germany from the 'violent communists' seems like an important thing for people to be studying right now."
Concluding that the “contradictory crosscurrents of Weimar’s
global situatedness sound rather familiar in the context of our own predicament at
the beginning of the twenty-first century.”
