Summary note
What happened to 'race', race thinking, and racial distinctions in Germany, and Europe more broadly, after the demise of the Nazi racial state? This title investigates the after life of 'race' since 1945 and challenges the assumption among historians that it disappeared from public discourse and policy-making with the defeat of the Third Reich.
