In this work, Simone Rücker provides a survey of the legal advice system in Germany during the Weimar Republic and the National Socialist era and the creation of the so-called »law on legal advice«, which was passed in 1935. In choosing a broad approach to the subject, she is able to present new ideas and concepts which can contribute to the discussions on the history of law, to social history and political science. She focuses on the practice of lawyers and other legal advisers and, taking into account the changing political systems, she analyzes the economic, social and political premises of their work. In studying the conflict between academics and laymen, and in analyzing the politics of German lawyers, the author makes a significant contribution to the history of lawyers in Germany.
