They utilized the science of eugenics to convince SS men to marry suitable wives and have many children. Marriage and Fatherhood in the Nazi SS, by Amy Carney, is the first work to significantly assess the role of SS men as husbands and fathers during the Third Reich. The family community, and the place of men in this community, started with one simple order issued by SS leader Heinrich Himmler. He and other SS leaders continued to develop the family community throughout the 1930s, and not even the Second World War deterred them from pursing their racial ambitions. Carney's insight into the eugenic-based measures used to encourage SS men to marry and to establish families sheds new light on their responsibilities not only as soldiers, but as husbands and fathers as well."-- OP - 309 CN - HQ625 C37 2018 SN - 9781487515607 SN - 148751560X SN - 1487515618 SN - 9781487515614 SN - 9781487522049 SN - 1487522045 SN - 9781487502584 SN - 1487502583 KW - Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter-Partei. : Schutzstaffel.
