Resumo: The German economy under the nazi regime has been characterized by Arendt, in The origins of totalitarianism, as being no utilitarian as well as suffering of “wasteful incompetence”. Taking these traits in mind, this paper aims at gathering evidence on the irrationality of nazi economics from recent literature on the economic history of the period to qualify the incongruity between the politics of the Third Reich and the utilitarian principles that would rule the economic system. In doing so, the paper highlights the prevalence of the ideological dimension over the main economic decisions of the nazi regime.

A partir destes traços peculiares, o presente artigo procura reunir evidência sobre a irracionalidade da economia nazista, com base em recente literatura da história econômica do período, a fim de qualificar a incongruência entre a política do Terceiro Reich e os princípios utilitários que regeriam o sistema econômico. Ao fazê-lo, o texto destaca o predomínio da dimensão ideológica do regime nas principais decisões de ordem econômica.ABPHE2022-08-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://hehe.org.br/index.php/rabphe/article/view/80510.29182/hehe.v25i2.805Economic History & Business History; Vol. 25 No. 2 (2022); 295-323História Econômica & História de Empresas; v. 25 n. 2 (2022); 295-3232525-81841519-331410.29182/hehe.v25i2reponame:Revista História Econômica & História de Empresas (Online)instname:Associação Brasileira de Pesquisadores em História Econômica (ABPHE)instacron:ABPHEporhttps://hehe.org.br/index.php/rabphe/article/view/805/523Copyright (c) 2022 Bruna Werle, Carlos Henrique Vasconcellos Hornhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessWerle, BrunaHorn, Carlos Henrique2022-08-18T22:49:21Zoai:ojs.hehe.org.br:article/805Revistahttps://hehe.org.br/index.php/rabpheONGhttps://hehe.org.br/index.php/rabphe/oaihehe.abphe@gmail.com2525-81841519-3314opendoar:2022-08-18T22:49:21Revista História Econômica & História de Empresas (Online) - Associação Brasileira de Pesquisadores em História Econômica (ABPHE)false
