520 3  This book reveals how, over the course of the Third Reich,
       scenes involving alcohol consumption and revelry among the
       SS and police became a routine part of rituals of 
       humiliation in the camps, ghettos, and killing fields of 
       Eastern Europe. The book draws on a vast range of newly 
       unearthed material to explore how alcohol consumption 
       served as a literal and metaphorical lubricant for mass 
       murder. It facilitated "performative masculinity," 
       expressly linked to physical or sexual violence. Such 
       inebriated exhibitions extended from meetings of top Nazi 
       officials to the rank and file, celebrating at the grave 
       sites of their victims. The book argues that, contrary to 
       the common misconception of the SS and police as stone-
       cold killers, they were, in fact, intoxicated with the act
       of murder itself. The book highlights the intersections of
       masculinity, drinking ritual, sexual violence, and mass 
       murder to expose the role of alcohol and celebratory 
       ritual in the Nazi genocide of European Jews. Its 
       surprising and disturbing findings offer a new perspective
       on the mindset, motivation, and mentality of killers as 
       they prepared for, and participated in, mass 
       extermination.|cpublisher
