re: #155 Charles
Yeah, absolutely. There is simply NO historian of any stature in the current debates that wouldn’t say that National Socialism as a phenomenon is part of the extreme right. Anyone who comes up with this bs again and again that the Nazis were really leftists primarily shows his utter lack of any academic literature on the subject.
For an overview on relevant debates by a real Historian I recommend this. Most of the important books on the debate are mentioned.
