This book presents studies of public dissent that prove this was not always the case. It examines circumstances under which “racial” Germans were motivated to protest, as well as the conditions determining the regime’s response. Workers, women, and religious groups all convinced the Nazis to appease rather than repress “racial” Germans. Expressions of discontent actually increased during the war, and Hitler remained willing to compromise in governing the German Volk as long as he thought the Reich could salvage victory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“The volume’s merit lies not only in the empirical clariﬁcation of the Rosenstraße controversy but also in drawing new attention to public forms of opposition during the Nazi regime, whereas research has mainly concentrated on consent and cooperation in the last years…[It will inspire work on confessional milieus, contributing to a more diﬀerentiated categorization of resistance and opposition on the one side and consent and cooperation on the other – or rather on the interminglement of the two.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• Journal of Contemporary History\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“This is a solid book and a welcome addition to the literature.
