The book explores how the Nazi regime's focus on youth shaped political and social structures during Hitler's rule. After the war, intellectuals and creators used youthful imagery to confront Germany's troubling past. By examining themes of youth, education, and crime, postwar Germans sought to reclaim agency in the face of Allied reeducation efforts. This narrative highlights the struggle to reconcile recent history while navigating occupation and shaping the future of the nation.
