Abstract
Edward Westermann tells two parallel stories of intoxication: one about the physical act of drinking and the social role of drunkenness, and another about the metaphorical intoxication of being drunk on power. While they at times veer apart, they entwine throughout the book to contribute to our understanding of belonging in a hypermasculine community. As a whole, the book uses drinking practices to analyze cultures of masculinity before, during, and after acts of extreme violence. about alcohol, masculinity, and power.

The major forum for scholarship on the Holocaust and other genocides, Holocaust and Genocide Studies is an international journal featuring research articles, interpretive essays, and book reviews in the social sciences and humanities. It is the principal publication to address the issue of how insights into the Holocaust apply to other genocides. Articles compel readers to confront many aspects of human behavior, to contemplate major moral issues, to consider the role of science and technology in human affairs, and to reconsider significant political and social factors.
