Thule and the Third Reich
The genesis of National Socialism
2023 || Paperback || Perry Pierik || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
Long before Hitler entered the stage, ariosop-ic thought already thrived in Germany en Europe. This boek provides a peak into one of the oldest sources on this theme: the early work of Rudolf von Sebottendorff, a mystical man who prophesied the downfall of the fatherland as a consequence of the stab-in-the-back myth. The grounds for anti-semitism, which became more fertile after the German defeat of November 1918, was formed by, a.o, Sebottendorff, as frontman of the Thule Society; a myterio...

Winkelman's Witzkrieg
2023 || Paperback || A.M.A. Goossens || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
The dramatic defence of the Netherlands in May 1940 against the German invasion lasted only five days.

the spiritual roots of the conquest to the east
2023 || Paperback || Perry Pierik || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
Besides the persecution and annihilation of the Jewish community, the quest for Lebensraum was a pillar of the Nazi’s ideology. The march east, operation ‘Barbarossa’ (1941), was essentially the final part of the geopolitics of the Third Reich.

And if we look a bit further into the world of the 21st century, we see that the most pressing project will be the search for meaning in the lives of human beings in a globalised world. Following the complete existential deconstruct...
