Summary: Brilliant
Comment: The words of Peter Hayes contributed a new spin on the industrial contributions to the Germanic society. Corporations and volkism were thoroughly investigated. He offers new information on an old, but undying topic. It was awesome!

Summary: Farben History Financed by Farben
Comment: We discussed Prof. Hayes' book in class. Some people felt it was an in-depth history offering great details and insights, but most were disinclined to accept the work as independent history because I.G. Farben financed the research. Surely Prof. Hayes, with all his resources, could have undertaken this project independently. Holocaust historians must not accept tainted blood to write corporate histories, lest their work also be seen as tainted. I think an independent history of Farben needs to be written. Several fine books have been published already and one more would be welcome.

Summary: Hardly inconsequential
Comment: Dr. Hayes maintains that the directors of Farben were inconsequential to the Nazi plan of extermination--even though the company maintained an extensive operation of murderous slave labor at Auschwitz, and otherwise colluded with the Hitler regime. Since it has been made clear that the post-war Farben financially sponsored Hayes' research, I cannot see how this book and its conclusions can be taken seriously. I think the sponsorship seeps into the fabirc of the book itself. The conclusion about Farben directors which Hayes offers, referred to above, is just one example of this book's lack of credibility. Independent research would demand that any investigation of Farben's history be conducted free from financial contributions by the company itself. Hayes' book--and its slant--should be read with that in mind.
