Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on the German Army's actions during World War II, the book examines the interplay between Nazi ideology and military necessity. It analyzes the combat and occupation policies of three infantry divisions, revealing how the soldiers' brutality was driven by a commitment to victory rather than solely by ideological motivations. The study highlights a complex relationship with civilian populations, characterized by alternating periods of violence and conciliation, shaped by the evolving context of the war in the Soviet Union.
