Samenvatting
Winner of the Fraenkel Prize, Wiener Library for the Study of Holocaust and Genocide An Open Letters Monthly Best History Book of the Year A New York Post "Must-Read" In the most crucial phase of the Second World War, German troops confronted the Allies across lands largely populated by Muslims. Nazi officials saw Islam as a powerful force with the same enemies as Germany: the British Empire, the Soviet Union, and the Jews. Islam and Nazi Germany's War is the first comprehensive account of Berlin's remarkably ambitious attempts to build an alliance with the Islamic world. "Motadel describes the Mufti's Nazi dealings vividly... Impeccably researched and clearly written, [his] book will transform our understanding of the Nazi policies that were, Motadel writes, some 'of the mo... (Lees verder)st vigorous attempts to politicize and instrumentalize Islam in modern history.'" --Dominic Green, Wall Street Journal "Motadel's treatment of an unsavory segment of modern Muslim history is as revealing as it is nuanced. Its strength lies not just in its erudite account of the Nazi perception of Islam but also in illustrating how the Allies used exactly the same tactics to rally Muslims against Hitler. With the specter of Isis haunting the world, it contains lessons from history we all need to learn." --Ziauddin Sardar, The Independent
