The Hitler Movement
A Modern Millenarian Revolution
Description:... "Could another movement as powerful and as fanatical as the Hitler movement ever come to the fore again? Of the many works that describe and explore Nazism, few if any follow the approach of this book: that Nazi self-interpretations should be taken seriously as starting points for the analysis of National Socialism; and that it is, indeed, possible for a millenarian movement to be generated by any calamity, in any society. This book inquires into the nature and causes of the Nazi movement from the standpoint of classical Greek and Christian political theory. One of its premises is that National Socialism was a secular apocalyptic movement, probably similar to the religious apocalyptical uprisings of the Middle Ages and perhaps akin to the millenarianism of the apostle John" --Book jacket.
