The Death of Democracy: Hitler's Rise to Power and the Downfall of the Weimer Republic

The dedication of this book as well as a comment in the comments at the back suggests this book has special meaning for our times. I wrote some notes and will not try to summarize its detailed argument. Here's a review. Goebbels saying, “We want to build a wall, a protective wall" is but one parallel. Hitler's assurance he knows better than informed people etc. does sound Trumpian. One notable thing is how the lack of fixed terms for chancellors was used to override democracy and promote corrupt conservative ends. Good read.
