About This Item
New York, Berghahn, 2002. 1st Edition . Hardcover. .. BRAND NEW. Virgin copy, not yet traded. 8vo. Pp. xvi, 357. With 6 tables and text figures; notes, list of works cited, index. HARDCOVER, green cloth lettered in silver, without dust-jacket as issued. ~ FIRST EDITION. Examines the relationship between technology and society in Nazi Germany. The role of National Socialism in the development of German society remains a central question of historical inquiry. This study presents original answers by examining the politics of inventing, a crucial but long ignored problem at the intersection of the history of technology, legal, political, and business history. The analysis of conflicts over the rights of inventors and the meaning of inventing from the 1920s to the 1950s reveals a deep chasm, reaching back to the late nineteenth century, between the forces of capital and big business on one hand and the exponents of intellectual capital - inventors, engineers, industrial scientists - on the other. A volume in the Monographs in German History Series. Q-3
