Hitler’s Northern Utopia by Despina Stratigakos
Building the New Order in Occupied Norway
The book analyzes how Nazi ideologues and architects envisioned occupied Norway as a racially defined model for a reordered Europe, using architecture, urban planning, exhibitions, archaeology, and cultural propaganda to legitimate conquest and remake landscapes and identities; it follows the transnational networks of German planners and Norwegian collaborators, documents concrete building schemes and exhibitionary practices, and argues that these aesthetic and spatial fantasies of a “Northern” racial ideal shaped wartime policy and left lasting traces in cultural memory.
