Hell's Cartel. I.G. Farben and the Making of Hitler's War Machine
Bloomsbury UK, 2008. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 406. In 1925, in the aftermath of World War One and the vengeful Treaty of Versailles, six of Germany's leading chemical companies banded together in a cartel to protect their business from increasing international competition. The merger succeeded beyond their wildest dreams and within a few years I. G. Farben, as the cartel was named, dominated the lucrative global chemical business. Yet twenty years later the directors found themselves on trial in the same Nuremberg courtroom that had decided the fates of the surviving leaders of the Third Reich. They were accused, in the words of the prosecutor, Telford Taylor, of being: 'the men who made war possible the magicians who made the fantasies of Mein Kampf come true.' How had one of the world's leading companies, whose scientists had won Nobel prizes, pioneered aspirin and a host of other essential drugs, and whose knowledge and expertise were the envy of the world, fallen from the heights of such success to become Hitler's creature, directly involved in the Holocaust with their experimental I. G. Monowitz plant at Auschwitz? In this brilliantly researched and compelling book, Diarmuid Jeffreys shines a bright light on I. G. Farben's Faustian pact with the Third Reich to reveal the detailed story of the original military-industrial complex. ISBN: 9780747580928. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Het kartel van de hel. IG Farben, de nazi's en de Holocaust
De Bezige Bij, 2009. Paperback. Pp: 591. In 1947 werden in Neurenberg drieėntwintig mannen van IG Farben aangeklaagd voor het oorlogstribunaal. Zij hadden welbewust Zyklon B-gas geproduceerd voor de gaskamers in de vernietigingskampen van de nazi's. Het IG Farben-kartel, in 1925 gevormd, was in korte tijd uitgegroeid tot het grootste chemische bedrijf en het machtigste industriėle kartel ter wereld, en was een symbool van Duitse efficiency. Er werkten vele beroemde geleerden, onder wie tal van Nobelprijswinnaars, en de honderdduizenden werknemers waren de best opgeleide en best betaalde van Europa. Zonder de steun van IG Farben zouden de gruwelen van Treblinka, Buchenwald en Auschwitz nooit hebben plaatsgevonden. In Het kartel van de hel traceert Jeffreys hoe IG Farben betrokken raakte bij de Duitse oorlogsmachine, hoe hebzucht, collectieve lafheid en corruptie tot het pact met Hitler hebben geleid, en hoe desastreus de gevolgen waren.

Weltkonzern und Kriegskartell. Das zerstörerische Werk der IG Farben
Blessing, 2011. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 687. Kommt die Verflechtung von deutscher Wirtschaft und Politik im 20. Jahrhundert zur Sprache, wird meist an Flick, Krupp oder Siemens und die Rolle dieser Unternehmer und Firmen im Nationalsozialismus erinnert. Das historische Erbe der IG Farben " des Zusammenschlusses von führenden Unternehmen der chemischen Industrie, allen voran Bayer, Agfa, BASF und Hoechst " ist 65 Jahre nach Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs den wenigsten präsent. Dabei hat kaum ein Industriezweig so machtvoll das Schicksal Deutschlands geprägt wie diese "Interessengemeinschaft". Von wissenschaftlichem Ehrgeiz über aufopferungsvollen Patriotismus bis zu nackter Profitgier und ideologischer Verblendung findet sich in der Geschichte der IG Farben jedwedes Motiv, das führende Köpfe der Branche dazu bringen konnte, die zwei großen deutschen Kriegsanstrengungen zu unterstützen, ja, überhaupt erst möglich zu machen. Anschaulich und so umfassend wie keine zuvor stellt Diarmuid Jeffreys` Studie das zerstörerische Werk der IG Farben dar, das mit der beiläufigen Entdeckung eines synthetischen Farbstoffs im 19. Jahrhundert ihren Anfang nahm und 23 leitende Angestellte der chemischen Industrie vor das Nürnberger Kriegsverbrechertribunal führen sollte. Sie waren, so ein Ankläger damals, "die Zauberkünstler, die die Fantasien von "Mein Kampf" wahr machten". ISBN: 9783896672766. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
