Re: Muetzenfabrik
This volume actually contains a lot of very interesting discussion about Nazi economic ideas, especially as they applied to the SS.
An excellent source.
The ideas herein are not those taught at the University of Chicago and its imitators, that much I can tell you.

Of course we know the Chicago Boys wield nothing less than laws of nature and stone fact with their unseen hand. Soon our great land shall be purified of all New Deal heresies.
I really wish I could read this document. The common perception is that Hitler sold out the revolution with the Rohm Putsch and betrayed the core socialist principles that had drawn the working class away from the NSDAP's communist rivals.

I am certain I added this somewhere before. If this keeps up, I will charge you tuition or some user fees for my bibliographical essays.
This is the most recent of many books on the economy in Nazi Germany and in modern Germany overall.
I am not in the habit of revealing my views of contemporary US politics, since that is not my job. There was an article in the NYT on a proposed code of ethics for economists, i.e. for them to reveal their conflicts of interest, which I think is a capital idea.
The rest of us have to engage in full disclosure of same to the nth degree.
Our interest is history and its artifacts, and not contemporary politics.

Re: Muetzenfabrik
This by R.J. Overy is also quite good, it is a little older, but by the leading expert.

I had just found the Tooze book. It shall be added to the stack.
There is also Avraham Barkai's "Nazi Economics." But the Tooze book seems more comprehensive.
Sorry. Yes present day concerns are tedious. We shall focus Pre-May '45 with the occasional side bar regarding the DDR and GDR as necessary.

Re: Muetzenfabrik
And back to the topic at hand which is an excellent microcosm of the issues raised, as there was a cartel of the larger hat manufacturers, I wonder if they farmed out work of rarer hat varieties to the smaller fabricators. Monthly output of th elarger concerns could be tens of thousands of units a month. Once you are running lines at that volume, small orders become impractical.
On the small side of the business, I can imagine a tailor providing fabric to a local hat maker to complete for a tailored uniform and matching visor. Obviously quality varies wildly and I have learned to appreciate a well made hat, in fact collecting in general has made me conscious of craftmanship and diligence in tailor which is lost outside of a few specialist suit makers these days.
