He provides numerous examples of projects and realisations which have not been discussed before in the subject literature. He analyses the moral aspects of this ordering work and the active engagement in occupation policy and the Holocaust of those implementing it. He follows the fates of particular specialists during and after the war.
Keywords: World War II, German occupation, Third Reich architecture, urban planning, occupation policy.
