This is a study of the role of the judicial system in the administration of Nazi terror during the war years. Wachsmann stresses that the legal terror administered by the conventional judiciary remained central to the Nazi penal policy. Legal officials wished to contribute to victory in the war: they may not have been radical Nazi ideologues, but their outlook was deeply nationalist.
