Hitler's Prisons

Hitler's Prisons: Legal Terror in Nazi Germany is a 2004 book by Nikolaus Wachsmann. Wachsmann is a modern European history professor. In his book, he argues how the Nazi judiciary played a key role in Nazi terror. There were harsh punishments that came with prison systems by enforcing Nazi racial policies of Jews, homosexuals and Jehovah's Witnesses.[1] Wachsmann visualized how law enforcements created an unhealthy obsession with the Nazi and terror acts in Germany before and during World War II.[2] Each chapter is dedicated towards a specific topic relating to political and prisoner terror. The author operated his book by aluminizing the bureaucratic and institutional history of prisons and the history of inmates themselves.[3]
