The Deutsche Bank and the Nazi Economic War Against the Jews

The examination of Deutsche Bank reveals its significant involvement in the expropriation of Jewish-owned businesses during the Nazi regime, extending beyond Germany to occupied territories. Utilizing newly available records, Harold James challenges the conventional view of profit-driven motives, exploring deeper motivations behind the bank's complicity in the economic persecution of Jews. This unique perspective positions the work as a critical analysis of a single institution's role in the Holocaust, enriched by James' extensive background in economic history.
