Title: Empire of Rags and Bones Author: Anne Berg Narrator: Suzanne Toren Format: mp3 Length: 11 hrs and 46 mins Release date: 03-19-24 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 2 ratings Genres: Europe Publisher's Summary: Historicizing the much-championed ideal of zero waste, Anne Berg shows that the management of waste was central to the politics of war and to the genesis of genocide in the Nazi Germany. Destruction and recycling were part of an overarching strategy to redress raw material shortages, procure lebensraum, and cleanse the continent of Jews and others considered undesirable. Resource extending schemes obscured the crucial political role played by virtually all German citizens to whom salvaging, scrapping, and recycling were promoted as inherently virtuous and orderly behaviors.
